Once a much larger property, we purchased our 120-acre (50-hectare) in 1984 as a means to live sustainably and raise a family. Living in our shed whilst we prepared the garden, put in watering infrastructure and built our house which we finally moved in when our daughter was 6 months old in 1990. Over the ensuing years we have continued to increase biodiversity on the property and set it up so we can live sustainably, harvesting our own water, electricity and food. If your lucky you could get a hamper of our product when there is sufficient in season. With the increased biodiversity you will find that in the mornings and evenings kangaroos and wallabies will visit with the occasional echidna, rabbit and hare; and to forget the large array of bird life - that may wake you early in the morning with the songs. This campsite is set on lovely grassy open areas interspersed with gum trees. The sunrise looks spectacular near the dam, when the trees give off a lovely glow. The main paddock has a Geodome, a shared space for relaxing in. With all that space you can park and set up camp anywhere in the paddock. There is access to drinking water, toilets, and a hot shower. Around the dome is a firepit, drinking water and a camp kitchen. The firepit features an Argentinian BBQ and a plate for cooking. The kitchen has plates, cups, cutlery, and other bits and pieces for you to use. We also allow for your pets to stay onsite, this also includes horses. If you want exclusive use of the paddocks - refer to Group Bush Retreat.

Great weekend away, very spacious and accessible for all types of vehicles and camping styles. Facilities new, clean and well maintained. Helpful and friendly hosts and affordable for a site close to Canberra.

Super beautiful farm with lots of space for the kids to roam without bothering or being bothered by other campers. Beautiful views, heaps of roos, and really well thought out use of space. By far the cleanest camping toilets I've ever encountered.

A place for all
Margot and Michael are bloomin brilliant hosts sharing their property with campers. The geodesic dome is absolutely worth the extra $$$ and the dried fruit Margot sells ($20 for 300grams) is absolutely worth the coin as she makes it using their own produce using no chemicals; you can taste the freshness!!! Would definitely recommend this place for an overnight stay or longer term place to base yourselves as Canberra is only 40 mins away. Will definitely return in the future 😀
