Our property is the perfect place to camp. Sally and Brian invite you to enjoy camping on their beautiful property, surrounded by Yengo National Park and Crown land. Earthways is 134 ha (330 acre) property near Wollombi. All separate for your individual group- you won't see anyone else. Long weekends we have minimum numbers for the larger sites-we also have plenty of sites for 2 people. 25minutes from Wollombi or Broke. Come and enjoy the noises of the bush and the clear night skies with no close human neighbors. Great for couples, families or larger groups or just come alone to enjoy the bush. We (Brian and Sally) have been re-vegetating the land and living here sustainably being “Off Grid” for over 45years, surrounded by bush with 3km of Stockyard creek meandering through the valley. HOT and dry summer so the creek is not flowing at present. We would love to share this paradise with those wanting to get away from wifi and the hustle and bustle of city life. (for emergencies we have satellite phone) Children under 4yrs are free. Dogs welcome but kept on a lead during the evening. No leeches and No ticks in this area. NO close neighbors. Perfect spot to pitch your tent or set up your camper in the valley. Lots of sunshine and lots of shade. Easy dirt road access (6km) Some sites require/recommend 4WD -some 2WD is fine. Check with us before booking if needed. Come and take advantage of the Wollombi Valley's beautiful scenery and atmosphere. Sit and relax or get adventurous and explore the area. The historic village of Wollombi is only 25 minutes away, and has cafes, shop, museum and the Wollombi Tavern. The popular Broke and Pokolbin wine regions are a short 25-40 minute drive away in the opposite direction. Yengo National Park has some wonderful look out spots-great to drive to Finchley lookout to watch the sun set or check out Aboriginal art sites. No guarantee but...You may see wombats, kangaroos, echidnas, goanna's, kookaburras, bower birds, lyre birds, superb blue wren, gang gangs, black cockatoos and so many other native birds/creatures. Stunning rock features, caves, diverse ecosystems with abundant native fauna and flora. We are situated in a valley. Each of our camp sites are for your own private space.

Brilliant location for those who want a private, quiet campsite, surrounded by nature. Our campsite was on a freshly mowed cleared fielded, surrounded by dense forest. 4WD was needed for our site due to tight turns and wet conditions but they offer plenty of other campsites for caravans and trailers. Brian and Sally were extremely helpful and I would definitely recommend them.

private Koala camp
We really loved camping on Brian and Sallys farm- the spot was totally private, beautiful scenery on the farm and surrounding area with lots to do, but most importantly it was very peaceful and amazing not having wifi/signal to totally unwind. Loved seeing lots of wildlife including wombats! Both Sally and Brian were so welcoming and showed us around the hives and invited us in for a lovely chat! Thank you for having us, we will be back!

A beautiful stay for anyone in need of a reset in the bush. Private campsites all with their own unique qualities, surrounded by the orchestra from the bush. We enjoyed exploring the nearby bush and caves dotted around the campsite and property. Brian and Sallly were also welcoming and accommodating hosts, who we chatted with and introduced us to their bees. We can't wait to come back. P.S. the honey is delicious

We enjoyed camping at Brian and Sally’s place. Felt very relaxed nestled in amongst all of the beautiful trees. Very private and quiet area. Was handy having the pit toilet available and great to be able to take our dog along. Wish I’d packed the antihistamines as unfortunately we encountered a few ant bites and a brush with some stinging nettle!! Despite this we all had a lovely time an would recommend to other campers

We camped here over the long weekend with my husband and our senior dog, and it was such a peaceful and relaxing experience. Sally and Brian are amazing hosts — very friendly and attentive. The Private Koala campsite is exactly what we were hoping for: quiet, tucked away, and truly private. We bought firewood from Sally, and it was top quality — burned really well and kept us warm all night. We’ll definitely come back again with friends and family. Highly recommend this place if you’re looking for a calm and private nature escape! 🌿🐾

We feel incredibly lucky to have discovered Sally and Brian’s beautiful property. The peaceful seclusion and natural beauty of the surrounding bushland were exactly what we were looking for. The “Goanna Site” was spacious and perfect for our two families to relax and enjoy a weekend of exploring. Brian and Sally were wonderful hosts, giving us a fantastic tour of the land, including the remarkable Aboriginal art. We're truly grateful to them for sharing their home with us. We will be visiting again!

What a beautiful experience staying with Brian and Sally! A wonderful warm welcome and clear directions were provided and we had a relaxing weekend unwinding and having a proper switch off with no phone service and a complete disconnect from the world for a few nights. We enjoyed complete privacy and a beautiful big area for our pups as well as the wonderful supplies that Brian and Sally offered including water at the site, toilet facilities and even a shower but we weren’t quite game in the heart of winter. Thanks for hosting us Brian and Sally, we had a fabulous weekend and will be regulars now we have found you.

Absolutely loved our stay here Brian made us feel very welcome upon arrival and escorted us to our site and made sure we were comfy Lovely clear , well maintained area to camp on with flat grounds for all types of campers Lovely spot nestled in amongst lovely bush and rock areas and although down below the tree line there is plenty of sunshine and some lovely nightly skies to view Only about a 20-25 min trip back into town for a look around the and tavern there was a great feed for lunch Also did some driving up in Yengo NP to the lookout etc which was also great Plenty of firewood around to keep us warm and was def a help being able to BYO chainsaw for some larger stuff The road in is quite narrow , however if you just take it easy it’s certainly not a problem , we got our 14ft van in no issues , however just cross fingers and toes you don’t get anyone coming opposite direction Portable toilet was clean and easy to use with no smell Will def be back here again
