Camping site is located in 41 acres of natural bush land, the perfect get away for nature lovers, hikers, horse riders and bird watchers. There is a dam and a forested area studded with granite boulders. The property is in an an elevated spot, it has lovely views and great places to camp. There are lovely accessible walking trails through the property with several areas of slightly sloping ground. We are a ten minute drive from Girraween National park, a popular haunt for hikers and bird and nature lovers in general. Ballandean winery is also close and there is a shop and a cafe as well as a restaurant there. The town of Jennings is a small, quirky town close to the border, with a population of about 150. Jennings is in two time zones, both QLD and NSW! There is a characterful café and information about the area in the perfectly preserved old railway station. Another treasure is the Jennings hotel.

There are occasional Saturday morning markets too. No motorbikes or hunting please. This land is for wildlife and supports wallabies, kangaroos and a variety of birds. On walks around the property you can spot various delicate purple, white, yellow and rust coloured flowers.Camping site is located in 41 acres of natural bush land, the perfect get away for nature lovers, hikers, horse riders and bird watchers.

Jennings Country Camp

A great place to stay that is an easy drive to Girraween National Park. To have the whole place to ourselves especially on a busy Easter weekend was fantastic.

Hidden gem ❤️

What a stunning property! We only stayed one night but would love to visit and stay longer If you’re looking for a private country stay with cute cows visiting and gorgeous sunsets with the prettiest pink fluffy grass you won’t be disappointed Highly recommend for a quiet secluded camp when you’re fully self contained. We have a hybrid van and it was very easy access Close to lots of attractions without all the people

Nice quiet camp

We stayed here one night with our 4wd, very nice open area that we had all to ourselves and we were lucky to be greeted by some very friendly cattle. Gillian offered us a fenced area if we wished to be away from the cattle. The property was easy to access and will be coming to stay again in the future. 5 Stars

Jennings Country Camp

Perfect!

What a perfect spot! All the more special as there is only one camp spot so you are completely on your own. You are surrounded by nature: kangaroos, wallabies, & dozens of Fairy Wrens. It’s in a perfect location for exploring Girraween, Bald Rock & Boonoo Boonoo. You are spoilt for choice for hiking. And with the wonderful town of Tenterfield just down the road; perfect for breakkie, lunch or dinner. We honestly could have stayed for longer as there is so much to do. If you don’t want to camp in the busy NP’s, this place is perfect!

Jennings Country Camp

A lovely spot surrounded by nature and a short drive away from bush walking at Girraween National Park, our favourite winery, Balancing Heart Vineyard, as well as the town of Tenterfield. The camp spot was easy to find, completely private, amazing sunsets and perfect for star gazing!
