Gawambaraay Views
This was our second Hipcamp experience, Ally and her parents Dave and Kim made us feel very welcome. We were met and directed to where we would be camping, the views are beautiful and you feel very isolated which is the experience we wanted! Our daughter loved watching the sheep and lambs in the paddock, very happy with our stay!

Very nice secluded spot, great views from the property of the Warrumbungles and nice a close for a trip to the national park. Ally was a great host

My Dad and I stayed at Ally's place for a weekend to do some star gazing. It was absolutely amazing. The spot Ally had for us was private, secluded and good for pitching the tents and we were free to choose if we wanted to be elsewhere on the property. Great view of the sky for stars and sunrise/sunset. Ally was very hospitable and gave great recommendations for things to do around the area, in particular a local bushwalk to a nice lookout over the region. Overall 10/10 experience would recommend to anyone looking to see the stars/camp in the area.

Beautiful spot not far from the Warrumbungles. Views were amazing and the stars at night were even better. Ally made us feel so welcome and nothing was too much for her. Thanks for having us Ally.
