Bridle & Breeze Retreat – Camp, Glamp & Ride by the Sea Welcome to Bridle & Breeze Retreat, a coastal escape where the bush meets the beach—and horses are more than welcome. Nestled on the serene South Coast of NSW, just off Meringo Road, our property offers a unique blend of rustic camping, stylish glamping, and unforgettable equine adventures. Whether you're rolling out a swag under the stars or settling into a lux bell tent, you'll find space to unwind, reconnect, and roam freely—with your horse by your side. What You’ll Find Here: Our retreat offers spacious campsites and glamping options across open paddocks and shaded bushland, along with newly built stables and comfortable units for riders seeking extra comfort. Horse-friendly facilities allow you to bring your equine companion and explore the coast together. Fire pits (season permitting), access to dam water and peaceful surroundings enhance the experience. You’ll also enjoy easy access to beaches, bushwalks, and local produce markets. Ride the Coastline, Walk the Songlines From our paddocks, saddle up and follow the ancient footsteps of the Yuin people along the Bingie Dreaming Track. This 13.5 km coastal trail winds through Eurobodalla National Park, linking sacred sites, freshwater springs, and sweeping ocean views. Whether walking or riding, the track offers a rare connection to Country—where every bend tells a story. For horse riders, the experience is unmatched: trot through bushland, canter along open stretches, and finish with a breathtaking ride on the beach near Tuross Head. The sand beneath your hooves and the sea breeze on your face—it’s freedom, tradition, and adventure rolled into one. Why Stay With Us? We’re not just horse-friendly—we’re horse-welcoming. Riders can saddle up and explore, while non-riders soak in the serenity. Whether you're here for a quiet solo escape, a family getaway, or a group adventure, we’ve got the space and spirit to make it memorable. Guests are welcome to enjoy horse riding on our property, whether you're an experienced rider or just keen to explore the trails. For everyone’s safety, all riders must read and sign our Horse Riding Waiver before participating. Helmets are required,

Dam View

100%
(2)
RV/tent site · Sleeps 4 · Vehicles under 13 m
Dam View Campsite is a spacious grassy area perched above the property’s dam, offering sweeping water views and a tranquil atmosphere for campers. The elevated position provides a sense of privacy and calm, with native trees offering shade and birdlife often seen around the water’s edge. Guests will enjoy a generous flat site that comfortably accommodates tents, campervans, or small trailers, with plenty of room to spread out and relax. This site is particularly well‑suited for visitors travelling with horses, as the open layout allows for safe and practical horse yard set‑up. The ground is firm and level, making it easy to establish temporary yards or portable panels, while still keeping animals close to camp. The dam outlook creates a peaceful backdrop for both campers and horses, with fresh breezes and wide skies adding to the sense of space. Please note there are no hookups; potable water is available nearby. Campfires are permitted in the designated fire pit when local fire bans allow. Whether you’re unwinding by the water, enjoying the company of your animals, or simply soaking in the serenity of the property, Dam View Campsite offers a unique blend of relaxation and rural charm.

RV/tent site · Sleeps 4 · Vehicles under 15 m
Dam View Site 2 – Across the Water Nestled on the opposite bank of the dam from our original Dam View Site 1, this peaceful campsite offers a fresh perspective of the water and surrounding farmland. From here, you’ll enjoy uninterrupted views across the dam, watching reflections shift with the light and wildlife gather along the shoreline. The site is level and easily accessible, with plenty of space for tents, swags, a small camper, or an RV. It’s close enough to feel connected to the heart of the property, yet far enough to give you a sense of privacy and seclusion. Guests are welcome to wander the nearby trails and enjoy the open paddocks, but please respect the boundaries around stables and horse areas. The dam itself is a focal point for birdlife and a perfect spot to relax with a morning coffee or evening sundowner. Other things to note: This site is directly across the dam from Dam View Site 1, so if you’re camping with friends, you can wave across the water while still enjoying your own space. Fires permitted in designated areas (seasonal restrictions may apply). Suitable for tents, swags, campers, and RVs. Please follow all farm safety guidelines during your stay.

Dam’s Edge Retreat #4

100%
(1)
RV/tent site · Sleeps 4 · Vehicles under 8 m
Directly across from the Fern Dam Hideaway, this campsite sits on the opposite side of the smaller dam, offering a different perspective of the water and the surrounding farm. Where the Fern site is framed by clusters of ferns, this side feels more open, with clear views across the dam and a wide sky overhead. The ground here is level and spacious, making it suitable for tents, swags, campers, or RVs. It’s a great choice for those who prefer a more open setting while still being close enough to wave across to friends camping at the Fern site. Guests can enjoy the same access to farm trails and paddocks, with the dam providing a peaceful focal point for birdwatching, morning reflections, or evening stargazing. Other things to note: Fires permitted only in designated fire pits (seasonal restrictions may apply). Children must be supervised near the dam. Suitable for tents, swags, campers, and RVs. Offers open views across to the Fern Dam Hideaway.

RV/tent site · Sleeps 4 · Vehicles under 8 m
Fern Dam Hideaway This campsite sits beside a smaller dam on the property, with clusters of young ferns growing naturally around the site. Their fresh green fronds add a touch of life and texture to the camping area, creating a unique setting that feels both open and inviting. The site is level and suitable for tents, swags, campers, or RVs, with enough space to set up comfortably. The smaller dam nearby attracts birdlife and provides a peaceful backdrop for morning coffee or evening stargazing. Guests are welcome to explore the farm and nearby trails, but please respect boundaries around stables and horse paddocks. The fern‑rimmed campsite is perfect for those who enjoy natural detail and a quieter, more secluded stay. Other things to note: Fires permitted only in designated fire pits (seasonal restrictions may apply). Children must be supervised near the dam. Suitable for tents, swags, campers, and RVs.

The Lake Paddock Campground

100%
(1)
RV/tent site · Sleeps 4 · Vehicles under 19 m
Lagoon Paddock Campsite is set within a fully fenced 2–5 acre paddock beside a quiet coastal lagoon, offering a spacious and peaceful base for campers seeking a blend of rural calm and coastal atmosphere. The site sits close enough to the beach that you can fall asleep to the sound of waves, with open skies, gentle breezes, and plenty of room for tents, campervans, floats, or small trailers. This campsite is particularly well‑suited for guests travelling with horses. The secure fencing provides peace of mind, and there is on‑site water available specifically for animal use. The large, level paddock allows for flexible horse yard set‑ups using portable panels or tape yards, with clear visibility across the area so horses can remain close and comfortable. The lagoon outlook adds a serene backdrop, and the coastal setting creates a relaxed environment for both riders and their animals. There are no hookups, no potable water, and no fire pit at this site, so campers should arrive self‑sufficient. With its generous space, safe fencing, and unique position between lagoon and beach, Lagoon Paddock Campsite offers a simple, quiet, and horse‑friendly coastal escape.

The Lake Paddock Campground
We loved our time at the lake paddock campground! Gorgeous horses and kangaroos all around. Not a sound to be heard but the neigh of a horse in the distance. Can hear the waves crashing at the local beach. Pure bliss Would highly recommended

Dam’s Edge Retreat #4
Beautiful property with plenty of space to explore and roam. We setup next to the second dam which had a nice flat area for our swag. Our dog loved running about playing fetch and watching the kangaroos. The host Dan had great communication and made the stay easy. It was a short drive back into town and an ever shorter drive to the beach!
