Beautiful location - And Relax!
4 m travel trailer · With kids · Spent 10 days at Peppers with another family - we're fully relaxed!
Thanks to hosts Ben & Roanna, who we know had their hands full after the river and surrounding area flooded. We needed to be moved from the River to the hill/Olive Tree - so yes, at peak holiday period, it was a little cramped, but within a few days, it all died down - for the last 4 days, we had the place to ourselves. Because of the orientation, you don't see others.
In hindsight, the hill was probably better given the amazing views, changeable weather and fewer mozzies, and it made the daily splash, float & wash in the Bega River more fun.
The location is perfect for trips to Tathra (or a 'healthy' 6km cycle path with a little bit of road), Merimbula/Pambula (hello Oysters!), Bega, Brogo Dam, Bermagui via the coast road, Tilba, etc, etc. Or laze and see/feed the animals, which the kids loved. Fires are permitted and wood is available ($20).
Things to be aware of:
* Bring your own shower or wash in the river
* Some may struggle with some sites on the hill not being totally level - can be a little hair-raising. There are plans to level/enlarge in future
* Generators: It is not the host's fault, but some people have little consideration, which detracts from the peace and quiet. Perhaps a permitted period in the middle of the day would be a fair balance
* Toilets - they are portaloos, but were clean
* Of note, for regulations, if camped down at the River, you need to be 30 metres back from the bank
