Camping site is located in 41 acres of natural bush land, the perfect get away for nature lovers, hikers, horse riders and bird watchers. There is a dam and a forested area studded with granite boulders. The property is in an an elevated spot, it has lovely views and great places to camp and there's a lovely yielding atmosphere of peace and tranquility. There are accessible walking trails through the property with several areas of slightly sloping ground. We are a ten minute drive from Girraween National park, a popular haunt for hikers and bird and nature lovers in general. Ballandean winery and the Ballandean pub is also close, it serves affordable and wholesome dinners and there is a shop and a cafe as well as a restaurant there. The town of Jennings is a small, quirky town close to the border, with a population of about 150. Jennings is in two time zones, both QLD and NSW! There are many popular wineries in the region, three of which have wonderful restaurant meals. 13 minutes drive going south, is the much-loved federation town of Tenterfield - with appealing cafes, clothes shops, country outfitters, the famous Tenterfield Saddlery and a cinema which seats about 50, a railway museum, a stylish yet friendly Commercial Hotel for eating out and a historic café where federation was called into being by Henry Parkes. There are occasional Saturday morning markets too. A fun place to hang out! No motorbikes or hunting please. This land is for wildlife and supports wallabies, kangaroos and a variety of birds. On walks around the property you can spot various delicate purple, white, yellow and rust coloured flowers.Camping site is located in 41 acres of natural bush land, the perfect get away for nature lovers, hikers, horse riders and bird watchers.

We loved this spot! Very large, flat and completely private area. Had lovely views across the property (watching the cows and horses) and to the mountains in Girraween NP. Wonderful sunsets! Within a short drive to Girraween, Bald Rock and Boonoo Boonoo NPs as well as wineries (make sure you go to Balancing Heart) and cute country towns (Tenterfield is lovely). We extended our stay to have 7 days here. Just lovely!

Perfect for camping out in the bush under the stars. Lots of space and good supply of firewood. It is a nice quiet clean and tidy camp. With good easy access. It was nice to see a few kangaroos and a bearded dragon. This site is priced right and is good value for money. Communication with the host was good. We were able to tuck ourselves away in a nice peaceful private spot.

What a great spot for a caravan stay, absolutely loved it. Great outdoors with firepit and firewood and brilliant night sky views and even a few friendly Roos. And being a rail enthusiast loved the Station and rail tracks. Definitely would stay again if I’m ever back this way and recommend it to friends.

Nice private site, mown grass with a fire pit, clear of any widow maker trees and ease access. The drive into Tenterfield takes around 20 to 25 minutes.

I had an overall wonderful stay at this campsite! The site was impressively wide and open, offering plenty of space to enjoy the peaceful surroundings. It truly felt like my own private retreat, as I had the entire campsite to myself. The solitude made it even more serene and allowed me to fully unwind and reconnect with nature. One of the highlights of my mornings was the delightful visits from wallabies. Watching these wonderful creatures hop around as I sipped my coffee was an unforgettable experience—it added such a special touch to the trip. The location was perfect for exploring the local region, including the nearby national parks. Whether it was hiking, soaking in breathtaking views, or simply wandering through nature, the area had so much to offer. However, one night there was some noise from the nearby highway, which disrupted the tranquility a bit. It wasn’t a major issue, but it’s worth noting if you’re particularly sensitive to sounds when camping. Despite this, the campsite was peaceful for the most part, and the wide-open space allowed for a true escape from the everyday hustle and bustle. I would still highly recommend this spot to anyone seeking a spacious, private getaway with excellent access to the region's natural beauty. I look forward to visiting again!

Lovely, private and peaceful. We based ourselves here for the Easter long weekend and explored the nearby Girraween and Sundown national parks to both hike and 4wd. We also visited some wineries and apple orchard. Very central place to explore all the places surrounding the camp. We love the fact that this is the only camp site and we have it to ourselves. Pure relaxation in nature.

Hi, we had a peaceful, calm and easy stay at Jennings camp. We walked and seen lots of birds. Watched roos and wallabies. And had a beautiful fire each night. There was firewood for us there. Felt safe and relaxed well. Thankyou.

I had a fabulous two nights stay at this wonderful site. You have plenty of privacy and the cows and kangaroos and birds on the property are all friendly. Direction was spot on and the site is huge with a fire pit perfect for campfire cooking. Located just on the NSW side of the QLD/NSW border, I would highly recommend this site to anyone :)

Great site, private, firepit & table, easy access and signpost to camping site with a large mowed grass area to set up with wallabies, bird life, rock bolders and mountains to enjoy. Close to the national park, wineries etc. Prompt replies from Gillian. Only downside was very slight road noise if wind blowing our way however this was more than offset by the location with no-one else around and easy access to the amenities in the area! Definitively go back and recommend to others.

A great stay with plenty of privacy! The homemade firepit BBQ was excellent, along with the bench seat to get close to the fire. Easy access in and out of the property and the hosts were quick to respond to questions.

This was a great location for our group of 5 people in 3 vans. It was easy to access in all weather conditions. The site had clear signage to the camp site which was a large grassy area made private by the surrounding bush. We were central to Tenterfield, national parks and wineries in the surrounding area. It was great to use the central fire pit with a custom made grill. I would love to revisit this camp! The owners were quick to respond to any questions we had!

What a stunning property! We only stayed one night but would love to visit and stay longer If you’re looking for a private country stay with cute cows visiting and gorgeous sunsets with the prettiest pink fluffy grass you won’t be disappointed Highly recommend for a quiet secluded camp when you’re fully self contained. We have a hybrid van and it was very easy access Close to lots of attractions without all the people

We stayed here one night with our 4wd, very nice open area that we had all to ourselves and we were lucky to be greeted by some very friendly cattle. Gillian offered us a fenced area if we wished to be away from the cattle. The property was easy to access and will be coming to stay again in the future. 5 Stars
