This is a 45 acre farm located approx 50 km north of Coffs Harbour and 30km south of Grafton and is just 500 meters from the Pacific Highway at Halfway Creek.
The property is easily accessed by 2WD and is suitable for caravans and small to medium motor homes.
Take a right turn as soon as you drive through the cream concrete entrance gates and follow the road down to the large cream shed.
Here you will find manicured park-like gardens with a large dam - big enough to kayak on! There are numerous shady trees along the dam edges and you can also relax on the pontoon which overlooks the water.
**Please note that the dam area is not fenced and may not suit campers with children. Campers must ensure they supervise their children at all times.
This farm operates a cut flower business with over 10,000 rose bushes and has recently diversified with a large number of Australian wildflowers.
The business hours are typically 6am-4pm but once or twice a week the shed does need to be accessed earlier than this so please do not park on the gravel area in front of the double roller doors.

This campsite offers a peaceful retreat just off the highway, making it a convenient stop for travelers. Guests appreciate the well-maintained grounds, abundant wildlife like kangaroos, and the serene setting by the lake. The proximity to a petrol station is a plus for easy access to supplies, though some visitors note that highway noise can be noticeable but not overly disruptive. Overall, the site is praised for its open space, friendly host, and natural beauty, making it a popular choice for both quick stopovers and extended stays.
Spacious area and pretty land next to lake. Although beside garage station so naturally car noise was prevalent which made it feel less relaxing. However grounds were well maintained and price very reasonable.
We stayed 3 nights to relax and unwind and that’s exactly what we did !
We camped beside the beautiful dam that was filled with flowering Lilli pads and an abundance of birdlife .
We watched kangaroos grazing with babies in their pouches .
We enjoyed having happy hour at the picnic table watching the sunset .
It was easy access from the highway and the servo next door was handy also .
We will definitely be back to visit Matt again at Benefields Rose Farm
We camped near the back of the property and slept well overnight. The grounds are very well maintained and it was special to see so much wildlife there .
I booked this late on a Friday night as my husband was south bound from the Sunny Coast and didn’t know how far he’s get. Matt responded and gave clear and easy to follow instructions.
Just off the highway so very convenient. Grounds really well maintained. Perfect spot to have a good nights rest. Thanks!
Beautiful place lovely and flat perfect for caravanning. The host matt was great. A piece of my caravan bar snapped on the drive and he was able to assist me in welding It back. 10/10
We loved camping here we booked for 2 nights and it was so peaceful and serene. Plenty of places to park up around the pond. Having a fire at night was magical. We will definitely be back.
Great spot with easy access, and beautiful surroundings. Lots of space and plenty of kangaroos to entertain the kids. Flowers are available to purchase on site and are beautiful. As others have mentioned traffic noise can be loud but you get used to it and it becomes like white noise hum. Handy having large petrol station nearby for supplies.
I just stopped in for a sleep on a long drive - perfectly placed just off the M1! But I was surprised with a beautiful view and local Roos in the morning :) no complaints! Great spot, easy
We enjoyed two quiet nights beside their beautiful lilly covered pond. This was home for numerous birds including 4 black swans. The nearby Halfway Roadhouse made grabbing a snack or drink easy. The fire pits and available wood bags were great as we enjoyed two peaceful nights by the fire. Highway noise dies down overnight and didn't prevent us from getting a restful sleep. The staff go about their business without an annoying the campers with no intrusion. They offer a friendly wave as they go about their day. Definitely would use this is a stop over in the future. Thanks Matt for making your property available.
This place is the picture perfect spot for an overnight stay, or a few days like we did. Nice and close to the regions beaches and attractions, plus a beautiful lake side camping spot to boot.
The space is simply beautiful. The lake, the flowers, the prairie and all the kangaroos in the area. Plenty of space for children to run and play.
It is very conveniently next to the highway, and next to a petrol station (if you need a quick something, it is convenient). You can book last minute.
We will definitely go back.
Perfect for an overnight stay. We were travelling north and needed somewhere to stay at 10pm. It was easy to locate just off the highway, roll in set up and leave in the morning, without any fuss. Ground is flat and nicely mowed. Bonus Ampol is on the corner to fill up before we headed off.
Great spot for an overnighter or a relaxing few days to unwind. Property is well maintained and there is wildlife in and out of the pond to keep you entertained . Would recommend.
Perfect spot! Just off the highway so easy to get to but not too much noise. We stayed for 2 nights over new year. Happy to sit and watch the kangaroos!
Convenient overnight location right off the freeway, lovely manicured lawns in a paddock next to lake. Kids enjoyed watching turtles hiding under lilypads. Would definitely return.
No need to unhitch, plenty of level space and tap to fill tank water.
