With over 600 acres of private natural forest, valleys, and mountain top look outs, there's more room to explore than you could possibly cover in one visit. Bordering world heritage listed Barrington Tops national park, the views seem to go on forever, and natural beauty that truly takes your breath away. Previously owned by Yoga australia for 20yrs, upon entering this hilltop getaway, it's easy to understand why this beautiful location has been a highly sought after retreat to relax and unwind. Close to so many wonderful locations and activities in the local Dungog area, there's many options to enjoy. Or just sit back and enjoy the serenity. At Bonneydoon you can visit Sunset Rock, walk the great timber staircase of General Sherman trail, The Big Fig that's hundred's of years old, walk the majestic flatbed rock creeks, etched out over a millennia, adorned with unique flora and fauna, or relax atop the camping grounds and see the mountain tops that seem to stretch on forever.

Sparsely littered field of Pioneer trees, just below and to the side of one of the swimming dams, gently sloping in parts, not suitable if there has been heaps of rain as it can get damp underneath the ground in parts, but still plenty of room to find a higher dry spot.

Cool spot nestled along the ridge, fairly sheltered from most winds, and very convenient to all spots and activities. Often shrouded in mist when the clouds come in and provides a air of mystique. Get ready to have wallabys and potoroos beside your camp. Is a gently sloping site, best to back in sideways to level up the camper etc

13. Valley View

100%
(4)
RV/tent site · Sleeps 8 · Vehicles under 10 m
This site is NOT safe for those with young children, as there is a steep drop off into the valley, which is what gives it an amazing view. We recommend only for fully self contained campers only. you need your own water, power and toilet facilities. it is totally isolated, there is no reception, no access to amenities without driving, and the only people you may see is the occasional traveller accessing the main camping grounds.

14. The Mill
We loved our stay at Bonneydoon. The property is outstanding with plenty to do without even leaving the property if you don’t want to travel around the local points of interest. At the time of our 2 night stay, there was nobody else there so Nicholas said we can take our pick of sites even though we only paid for the cheapest camp site. Throw in the beautiful views, fantastic wildlife and great weather, we couldn’t fault this Hip Camp.

Bonneydoon was an awesome camp ground. Beautiful setting with a great view from site 12. The sites are really big and nicely spread out so you are not all on top of each other and leaves room to kick a ball or play games. It’s close into Dungog for the mountain bike park, swimming pool, brewery, bakery and IGA

Nicholas was great helping me pick the right site for a tent and two campervans. Nice and flat, loads of space and fantastic views. We had the whole place to ourselves. Access to a water tap and clean pit toilets close by. We didn’t use the showers or camp kitchen down the hill but seemed okay. Bit hot during the day - need to bring your own shade for this site but there are others under trees. Steep downhill bush bash to see an amazing sunset from lookout, breathtaking sunrises to start the day and THE STARS - wow!! Delighted to see our first ever fireflies ✨ Got too dark to visit the big tree but good to save something for next visit. On the more expensive side of the hipcamps we have stayed at but worth it for the views, walks, peace and serenity only 1.5 hours from Newcastle. Thank you 🙏🏼

we were there for a long week end during school holidays and the way the sites are designed are very private and doesn't feel crowded. We are self sufficient but truly appreciated the clean facilities and environment. Our dog loved swimming in the dams.

If you are looking for relaxed touch back to nature. Amidst the nature. On top of a hill, than Bonneydoon is place for you. Rv, trailer camper, caravan, or just tent camping. Its one place for it all. Nicholas was warm host, who figured the place we originally booked was water damaged,so he fenced the damaged portion and let us know about it so we could get ready accordingly. Most of the ones in our team had their first camp ever and m glad i took them here.

Best camping ground in NSW
Tent ·
1. Rainbow View
The campsite was amazing, owners were also kind enough to send an email with things to do around the venue, but sitting in the campsite and admiring the view was more than ample for us. I had already been to the campsite prior last year and it still held its ground as the best campsite in nsw, in my books. Toilets were clean and accessible. Ground was not muddy despite the rain during our camping trip, which made clean up a breeze. Would definitely return. Absolutely worth the three hour drive from Sydney. My only tip would be to make sure that you have all your supplies before heading to the venue as the nearest grocery store is quite a drive from the campsite.

Last minute booking for a variety of reasons and I’m so glad we stayed at Boneydoon. It was exactly what these 2 “city slickers” needed. We had the whole place to ourselves apart for some wallabies and kookaburras. Great communication with Nick and perfect facilities (for off grid). Great phone reception so we could check in with our dog sitter.
