Belinda is a Star Host

Star Hosts are highly rated, responsive, and committed to providing incredible experiences.

We have just taken over the property so lovingly developed by Jo and Hoff. We will continue to offer Book a Paddock & The Stables as listings for those wanting to camp or have a lux experience. Some of you have asked for parties and events. At this time we dont have the infrastructure in place to get this rolling. Thank you so so much for your support, your quiet and respectful enjoyment of our property. We are humbled you chose us to spend your heartbeats with. For now, Belinda and Robert ********************************************************************************* Exclusively yours, this acreage of privacy was historically a larger soldiers settlements property comprising a dairy, piggery and wool farming. The quality of the land hasn't changed with most of the region's farmland in use, so this is a cool piece of privacy in the Macedon Ranges. Currently home to our family, the property is also visited by many native Australian birdlife species, many marsupials including kangaroos, echidna, possums and even a koala. With close proximity to coffee shops and local stores of Romsey and Lancefield Providore, you have only a few minutes to drive to stock up on local produce. Walking the trials around Hanging Rock is a 10 minute drive and Mt Macedon lookout 15min. If you've come for the peace and tranquility - check out our extras to make your stay just that bit more homey. We look forward to saying hi soon!** May 2022 ** Yes - its that time.... wet weather setting in... getting very cold..... access is... sloppy.... no other way of putting it really peeps... soorrrryyyyyy !!!!! SO - thats why the calendar has done a "gate shut" till Spring. Look please check out The Stables On Knox - I know its a skyrocket well past what you were planning to $pend, but, hey - its roof is solid - no tent pegs (bad joke... sorry) - gather another couple - split the cost .... just a suggestion... otherwise - see you very soon in Spring "our lovely hippers" - we loooove you <3 <3 ********************************************************************************************* Spring 2022...... Welcome to your private "Upper Stargazers Paddock" (as recent guests called it on their inaugural adventure) solely and exclusively! For previous guests - this means you venture past the houses and the old site (sorry, I know, people have moved into the house now - anyways), head on through the bottom gate, down the embackment, over Dry Creek - skirt the southern boundary cypress pine tree line as you ascend through the gates into the far western paddock BEHIND the cypress pine tree line to the north. What does that mean for you? Peace, privacy, kangaroo watching and bliss time with exclusive use for you. The same as last year - we only have 1 booking at a time - and once you've booked - its yours! (And theres still full 4G and 5G coverage. ) The downside bit - here it is - it means we are very weather dependent - and vehicle dependent. 4WD and 2WD vehicles and 4WD caravans will successfully navigate the rural terrain in dry conditions. If there has been 20mm or more of rain - conditions will dampen and may temporarily prevent access. Sun dries the ground easily and so when the rain stops - one sunny day usually clears it up - sounds like a song lyric! Anyway... back to your booking decision making... look - if you are concerned at this point - message us please... we can back n forth privately... Whilst all this sounds a little precarious - and it can be - the rewards are greater. The opportunity of a fully private camp site encapsulates - no people, no road noise and no visible buildings, houses or structures for as far as you want to look. Partial views of the neighbors dam - depending on where you want to park yourself, are rather serene. We still open the gates (and our socially distanced arms) for you in your self-contained RV/caravan/camper - just note access considerations of course. There is a 1/2 44 gal drum fire pit area, with low seating on logs for approx. 12-15 people. Firewood, coffee and muffins delivered to site - see Extras when booking. There is still a lot of fallen gum, pine cones and dead fall under all the trees - so fossick around - its cheaper and good for the soul. :) Pets welcome however please refer to property rules around this. If this is all too much and you feel like a treat - check out "The Stables On Knox" listing for a bit o lux ;)

Book a Paddock

Great that there was flat ground available for tents, a firepit, easy entrance. Delicious muffin, lovely coffee. Our dogs had a great time. We didn’t get to see the sheep until we started to pack up to leave, but they were living their best life nevertheless!

Lovely stay

Had a lovely stay here and appreciate the fresh eggs on arrival. The site is massive and very private. Town is nearby for essentials

Five Stars!

This was a five star camping experience and we feel very lucky to have found Jo and Mike. They are the warmest most accomodating hosts we have ever encountered and left our stay with them glowing. A breathtaking property, incredible attention to detail, the most delicious blueberry muffins and coffee and very cute chickens. We are already planning our return stay as we're sad we couldn't stay forever :) Highly recommend!

Amazing spot, I took my 2 year old beagle on his first camping trip and he loved it. Jo was very warm and welcoming, we will defenitely be back in the near future for another visit.

Book a Paddock

Camping in complete bliss…

What doesn’t stand out about Jo’s land - it’s unbelievable. The serenity, the peacefulness, the privacy - it’s a dream camp out for people that want to escape the hustle and bustle. You feel completely spoilt having the opportunity to camp at Jo’s, with a paddock all to yourself, and absolutely no one in sight. You will not regret booking - I promise!

Jo and Mike were great hosts and beautiful people. The property is amazing and we did not expect to have so much room and privacy to ourselves!! We thought we where the only people on the planet! They really looked after us and our little fur baby and made us feel very welcome. The coffee and delicious muffins in the morning where amazing. We will definitely be back!!! 10/10
