Artisans Park

I had the most incredible stay! From the moment we arrived, everything exceeded expectations. The view alone was worth the trip – the kind that makes you stop in your tracks and just breathe it all in. Sunrise, sunset, even the quiet moments in between… every angle felt like a postcard. Our host was absolutely outstanding. Warm, thoughtful, and genuinely passionate about making our stay perfect. Every little detail was considered, and their recommendations made the experience even better. And the activities were unforgettable. Whether we were exploring, relaxing, or trying something new, there was always something exciting to do. It felt like the perfect balance of adventure and ease. I couldn’t recommend this place more highly. If you’re looking for a stay that feels special, memorable, and beautifully hosted – this is the one. I’m already dreaming of returning!

Awesome Host!

We were thrilled to see all the historical building that been preserved by Glenn at his land. We get to see all the buildings and all the other art work done to his land. We recommend anyone who likes to have a nice outing to come here and relax.

London double decker bus

**★★★★★ Amazing Getaway Experience with Exceptional Hospitality!** We had the most wonderful experience staying in the London double decker bus, made even more special by the kindness of our host Glen. Not only was the location beautiful and the site incredibly cozy, but Glen also went above and beyond when they found out it was my birthday—upgrading us to a stunning London double decker bus that made the trip unforgettable. The attention to detail, warm hospitality, and serene surroundings made this a perfect getaway. We couldn’t have asked for a better stay and will definitely be returning. Thank you Glen for making my birthday so memorable! Highly recommend to anyone looking for a relaxing and luxurious outdoor experience.

We stayed in the London bus over the weekend and absolutely loved it! Such a unique, fun, and unforgettable experience with the kids they enjoyed every bit of it. The place is full of charm, cozy, and really well looked after. Glen was super friendly and helpful throughout. Highly recommend it and we can’t wait to come back! 💛🚌✨

My partner and I stayed in the WWII Army Communication Tower in the park and loved it! The views were outstanding and we were met with unbelievable sunset and sunrise. The tiny home was very tidy, filled with interesting books and other stuff, and the walk around the property is beautiful. Highly recommend!

Artisans Lark Is a weird and wonderful destination. Kangaroos as far as the eye can see. The host is accomodating and always happy to give tips for day trips and sightseeing opportunities.

Unique Stay, views & amazing host!

We had an incredible time at Glenn's Hipcamp. The drive was scenic, though a bit bumpy in spots, but the mountain-top views were breath-taking—especially at sunset. Our site felt private, despite being near the public bathroom, and Glenn was an absolute highlight of our stay. His passion for the park and his art shines through in every detail. He’s super welcoming, full of great stories, and went above and beyond—like setting up our gas heater so the space was warm when we returned from a day trip. The park itself is a creative wonderland with restored cars, sculptures, and even a lake for paddling. It’s a great escape from screens, and Bathurst is nearby for a fun day trip before returning to watch the stars. Highly recommend for a one-of-a-kind experience!

It was amazing accomodation, Glen was also so helpful and friendly. My battery on my car died and glen kindly drove down the road to get me some jumpleads. I would strongly recommend staying here. Also Glen recommended some local attractions that I would not have known about if he didn’t stay here thanks so much 😀

We stayed in the Trig hut as a treat(we usually camp so the hut was a luxury ). Really cosy fire, all you need for cooking and bonus hot shower and toilet. We loved it.

Spectacular views and accomm

With kids ·

Watching the sunrise over the beautiful valley surrounding the London Bus in the morning and then the sunset from the short Trigpoint walk at the top of the hill on the same day was already enough to make this the most beautiful hipcamp site I've experienced. The kids *loved* being able to sleep on the London Bus (it was a suprise!) and on top of all that, enjoyed the paddleboats on Glenn's dam and exploring the other displays within Artisans Park. Glenn was an excellent host, being friendly and helpful in accommodating us and telling us about the property as well as helping us with some kindling which we'd forgotten for our firewood. It was a beautiful two nights.

That place is amazing, it's so peaceful it's worth it if you're looking for something to relax, it has beautiful views, the sunrise, the sunset and seeing the stars were the most beautiful things we enjoyed during our stay, the accommodation on the bus is very very comfortable and clean. We really just wanted to relax and it exceeded our expectations, and Glenn, is a very friendly host, was attentive and responded quickly. We definitely recommends it and would go again. 💕

Highly recommend staying here

Had an amazing time at the London Bus. Truly a unique experience. It exceeded all our expectations. Breathtaking views, clean accomodation, well-equipred cooking appliances (gas stove and outdoor gas bbq), comfy beds with pillows and blankets, hot shower and flushing toilet, and more! Roaming around Artisans Park was also a lot of fun and there are a lot of quirky and unique things to see and do. Glenn was a great host and he took the time to show us around when he saw us exploring.

We had such a great trip! Glen was accommodating and made us feel very welcome straight away. The land is beautiful and clean with so much attention to detail. The views from all over were breathtaking. We took the paddle boats out around the dam which was so much fun and after we had a swim in the flooded old mine which was such a cool experience. A true hidden gem would definitely recommend!

Amazing views and a GREAT stay!

With kids ·

My husband and I with our 3yo daughter absolutely loved our weekend stay on the bus. What an experience from beginning to end. The views were phenomenal, the peace and quiet was much needed. We saw mountain goats, lots of wallabies and kangaroos and some sheep all came by to visit. Glenn was brilliant, very friendly and let us explore all the land and buildings/cabins. We had so much fun on the pedal boats on the blue lagoon each day. We will definitely be back to experience the bus in winter so we can also enjoy the fireplace and light a camp fire. Thank you Glenn for a great weekend to remember

A weekend we’ll always remember

Wow. Where do we start. The 1949 London Bus was a weekend my partner & I had never had the pleasure of experiencing before. We love finding unique accommodation, especially when it reminds of us of how beautiful the simple things in life are. We were 100% comfortable, warm and the bus had everything we needed to cook a bbq dinner, bacon & eggs on the bbq for brekky, and we heated our ready meal Indian curries on the cooktop in the bus’s downstairs kitchen. This is definitely the place to come when you need total relaxation with breathtaking mountain views, sunrises and sunsets in simple but ample arty accommodation you won’t easily find anywhere else. Glenn is a lovely host, who lives down the hill and around the corner. He was responsive when we needed to ask him anything, but very respectful of our privacy. I’d def recommend Artisans Park to anyone looking for peace & quiet and a different experience.
