Peaceful Valley Farm
8 sites · RVs, Tents150 acres · Jelcobine, WA
Escape the hustle and bustle of city life and immerse yourself in the stunning scenery of Peaceful Valley Farm, less than an hours drive from Perth. Located off the Brookton Highway, this picturesque property offers a perfect retreat for those seeking tranquility.
Our campsites are nestled in a beautiful valley along a creek that flows all year round. Each site is far enough away to provide peace and privacy, and is ideal for tents, swags, camper trailers, caravans, and other RV vehicles.
Our rustic yet modern ablutions are conveniently located within walking distance from the campsites, offering a lovely hot shower and toilet facilities.
Take leisurely strolls through the rocky outcrops and pastured paddocks while mingling with the friendly Murray Grey Cattle and Dorper Sheep. As the sun sets, unwind by your own open fire pit with a glass of wine and soak up the peaceful ambiance.
Peaceful Valley Farm is a pet-friendly property, so feel free to bring your furry friend along for the adventure. However, please keep them on a leash at all times to ensure the safety of our livestock.

100-Acre Woods
18 sites · RVs, Tents100 acres · Mandurah, WA
We are a hobby farm set on 100-acres on the North Dandalup scarp, with a few sheep. You will find kangaroos, echidnas, sometimes emus visiting our property.
You can enjoy the great views into the horizon towards the Indian Ocean amidst the tall jarrah and gum trees. Campsites are set in the woodlands, some with views.
It’s perfect for people seeking 'quiet' time away, but still near to amenities in the towns around here. You can take walks to experience forest therapy, have a campfire or canoe in the dams during wintertime.
There is no power, water or toilet facilities so campers must be completely self-contained. You are expected to clear up and take all rubbish with you. Leave no trace.
The terrain is rather hilly, hence a few sites are accessible only by 4WD (Sembawang and Changi). There are some sites that are still accessible with regular cars (Opera 1, 2 or 3; Tampines, Bedok). RVs and small caravans are welcomed. All vehicles have to stay on the paths, and not to make any tracks.
During the summer fire season, fires are strictly prohibited! The fire ban commenced on 1 Oct 2023 (Shire of Murray).
Dogs welcome (on leash).

There are also a HUGE number of factors that can affect your stay that I have ZERO control over... The seasons change a lot of things throughout the course of the year: we have snakes (like ALL Aussie bush places) for most of the year, according to their seasons, varying growth stages of grasses (long, short, brown, green and sometimes grass seeds/prickles.. along with some crazy weather (high winds, high temps, storms) on occassion - NONE of which I have any control over.. so if you are a moaning myrtle and any of those things are likely to bother you, please don't come to our property...
If you accept that you are staying on a working hobby farm / equine property and that I have no control over nature - then welcome, there is much beauty here for those who have the eyes to see - and as a base to explore the Perth area, we have a pretty convenient spot :)

Keane was a prominent figure in the development of Western Australia, having constructed over 800km of rail around W.A. The property runs alongside the discontinued railway line, known as the Kep Track / Golden pipeline trail, which is part of the same railway network as the Bibbulmun track.
