Escape the hustle and reconnect with nature at our peaceful farmstay campsite on Putty Road, nestled in the heart of rural New South Wales. Whether you’re after wide open spaces, shady creekside relaxation, or a unique countryside experience, our working farm has something for everyone. Campers can choose from two main areas: 🌿 Creekside Camping – Pitch your tent or park your van near the serene seasonal creek at the bottom of the property. After rain, the creek comes to life, offering a peaceful spot that’s perfect for unwinding. 🌾 Main Camping Area – Stay closer to our well-equipped amenities block, which features four clean toilets and two hot showers, along with access to power and water. This is a great option for those who prefer a few more comforts during their stay. Families are especially welcome here – there’s plenty of room for kids to ride non-motorised bikes, run around, make noise, and simply enjoy being kids in a safe and open space. It’s the kind of place where childhood adventures come alive. We also welcome groups – if you're interested in booking as a group, please message the host, and we can open up extra sites to accommodate you. In the evenings, gather around the fire pit under the stars – perfect for roasting marshmallows, sharing stories, or simply soaking in the peaceful sounds of the countryside. As a working farm, you’ll often see cattle, sheep, and horses grazing in nearby paddocks (and if you're staying creekside, they may even share the paddock with you), adding to the authentic rural charm. Kids and adults alike love watching the animals roam. Bring your camera, your campfire stories, and your sense of adventure – then relax under the stars. This unique slice of country life is ready to welcome you.

Creekside camping
Great camping spot, lots of shade and nice and peaceful. Although the river was dry and we couldn't paddle our feet in the water we still enjoyed our stay. No fires during warmer months but during winter this spot will be amazing. We will be back again come winter for sure. Lovely to meet owner Rikki 😊

We absolutely loved our stay at Hedley Hideaways on Thompson Camp. The property is stunning — wide open paddocks, peaceful views, and a beautiful sense of space that instantly makes you slow down and relax. The campsite was spotless and well thought out, with everything we needed for a comfortable and relaxing stay.

We had a restful, quiet stay at Healy’s Hideaway. The property was as described and the directions were clear which made it easy to find our site and set up camp. The amenities block was a real bonus and nice and clean. Thanks Nikki, we’ll book again when up that way.

Creekside camping
Off grid camping in the country with peaceful surroundings and a lovely shallow creek right at your feet. Wide open spaces in the sun or shade, choose your own spot to set up and sit back and relax. Highly recommend this little peace of country paradise. We will be making this one of our regular camp spots for sure. Please note, there is no mobile reception so enjoy this quality time with your friends and family. Close to general store at Bulga for fuel, bottle shop, and hot food, so if you forget anything then it's a 10 minute drive away. Host was amazing with communication.

Helping out farmers and people on the land is great for them and great for the people who visit. It reminds us of what built Australia. Love it! Beats a caravan park any day

The host Rikki was lovely through chat. The stay was amazing, its cold this time of year, so the fires are a definite must. And there is a warm shower provided for all campers, it was quite calming to watch the cows

Thompson's Main Camping Area
Just spent 3 nights here with the family and another family absolutely stunning place with plenty of mountain views, room for the kids to run around and explore, large fire pits and the creek for kids to play . Rikki came down and introduced herself and told us about the property and was very helpful with anything we needed and very responsive with messages. We got to hike up the top of the property with amazing views well worth the walk. The hot showers and flush toilets were just a little luxury to top it all off. Can not recommend this place enough the price and service is excellent we will definitely be returning in the future

We had a fantastic weekend stay at Rikki's property. The land is absolutely beautiful and peaceful, with open paddocks to explore and friendly cows to visit. Such a relaxing countryside experience. There are also some lovely hikes around the property, including a walk up to the plateau with stunning views of the valley. Well worth the effort! The facilities were excellent, with clean toilets and hot showers. One thing to note: the site provides 10amp power, so if you're bringing a 15amp caravan, make sure to bring a converter. Rikki was a great host and set up a massive firepit for us, which kept us warm during the chilly winter nights. They also provided some firewood—though it wasn’t quite enough for the two night, however we had already brought our own. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a quiet escape with great amenities and a beautiful rural setting.
