Easter @ Lyrebird campsite
We stayed at the Lyrebird site for a couple of days over Easter and loved it! The site is secluded and private away from other campsites at the property. We didn't hear a peep from other campers as the sites are so well spaced out ☺️ Our group was 3 families, 6 adults, 6 kids and 2 dogs. We had three cars, and easily enough space for all our tents and shelters - plus so much open space to kick a ball around and explore - it's a huge site and the photos don't really do it justice! The toilet was a great basic composting setup and was really convenient.
Brian and Sally were fantastic hosts and were very welcoming, showing the kids around the chicken coop (I think the kids collected about 6 eggs which we had for brekkie the next day), veggie patch, an old land rover defender for the kids to sit in and play as well as an old tractor for the same type of fun. And then there was Brian's been hive and honey tour - very educational and he's super passionate about all things bees, the adults and kids had a really interesting lesson in the shed. You can buy honey and mead (sweet or dry) made from Sally and Brian honey bees too.
There are some awesome caves near the campsite (300m) with some incredible aboriginal rock art (hand prints), that Sally and Brian pointed out too - definitely worth a little explore while camping there.
Brian and Sally have created a brilliant set of campsites and it's evident they have been looking after the land and environment with love. We'll be back!
