Situated between Goulburn and the rural village Crookwell is the Yurtfarm. Mike Shepherd has been running Back to Basics living camps here for more then 30 years and we now want to invite campers to our picturesque Yurt village. We can show kids what farm life is all about and how to make fun in the bush or you can just come and enjoy the peace and quiet. Apart from abundant wildlife we farm sheep and Scottish Highland cattle. We also have lots of horses and dogs and you can collect fresh eggs from our chickens. Take a stroll through our gardens, a hike to the Peace yurt and boil the Billy or learn about growing vegetables. We have toilets and a kitchen yurt for your convenience. We look forward to meeting you!

Best campground for friend groups!
My friends and I had the best time here!! Amazing views, beautiful and peaceful atmosphere, and a generous, lovely host! The ability to roam around the farm exploring the yurts was so fun, and Mike (one of the hosts) taking us on adventures was definitely the highlight! Can’t wait to come back again.

The yurt farm is a priceless place that everyone should visit. We’ve been coming for more than 15 years! Our kids grew up here on several visits a year. Mike is a one of a kind, the most generous teacher and fabulous farmer. I cannot recommend a visit enough!!!!

Camping with animals.
We absolutely loved it, as this was our first time camping as a family. We stayed in tents. The host were really good, Mike also gave a tour of the farm and showed the kids cows, horse etc. Will definitely recommend it, especially when you are first time camping, as grocery is 20 mins drive to golburn coles

The Yurt farm camping is such a unique experience wonderful chance to connect with nature while having some extra comforts such as the kitchen yurt which morphs into a social space to meet other campers and allows children to connect. Camping a bit further away from the village allows space and or those who want that. Farmer Mike is wonderful coming to the village and has a wonderful way of bringing people together taking the kids (and adults) on the tractor with stories and wisdoms abound. The central fire facilitated by Mike set the scene for fireside musings and marshmellow delights. A favourite place of ours, 12 years of visits later, we never want to leave. Thanks Judith and Mike!

An unexpected delight
This was an unexpected delight. We bought board games and other things to occupy our kids but they didn't touch them once. The experience that Mike facilitates is something special. We made genuine connections to the other campers who have been coming here for many reasons for years. Our family will be making this a tradition too. Thankyou for making our Easter special.
