A Working cattle farm in the Noosa Hinterland with an abundance of wildlife and birdlife to discover. Bush walking, swimming and fishing, or just a great place to relax. Bunya Ridge Nature Camp is perfectly located to base yourself for daytrips to discover the surrounding country side and small country towns, or head into the beach for the day, only 25mins away!

Welcome to Bunya Ridge Droughtmasters, a working cattle property in the Noosa hinterland, located 8mins from the town of Cooroy and only 25mins into Noosa.  Dedicated to maintaining biodiversity and the conservation of the native bushland and remnant rainforest gullies located on the property, portions have been set aside and committed as 'land for wildlife'. The secluded campsites with fire pits are on flat, grassy and shaded areas with easy walking access into the surrounding bush land to explore the diverse range of native flora and fauna, make sure you bring your camera and binoculars. Please note, a 4x4 vehicle is required to access our campsites safely.  If relaxing around camp and having a swim or paddle around the dam is your thing, bring the kayak and fishing rod, as one of our dams is well stocked with Australian Bass and Silver Perch.  There's always a chance to spot a platypus for the quiet and patient camper too.  Feel free to wander the property and take in some of the views from different vantage points around the farm. There's a good chance you'll come across our beautiful stud quality droughtmaster cattle at some stage during your stay and although they are generally very quiet and friendly, they are BIG, and safety is a priority, so if you'd like to get up close and meet the herd, get in touch with your host Dave, for a hands on experience with the cattle in a safe environment.  Some other activities you may be interested in during your stay;  Guided tour of the property including cattle experience and some tips on finding wildlife/birdlife.  Cheese/grazing platter, made with select local produce. (Goes great with a wine or beer at sunset) Fishing lessons, tips on how and where to catch your first bass.  Pony rides, kids up to approx 50kg can ride Jed the Welsh X pony. All rides will be on the lead rope.  Access to the campsites is 4WD only, Camper trailers and off road caravans are ok, track can become slippery in the wet. Feel free to make contact prior to booking so we can place you in the best site to suit your setup.

Beautiful site with a view and two dams on each side. A bit of a walk to the portaloo but that’s not a problem! Dave was super friendly and welcoming and we loved the property. Great access to the beach, Eumundi etc

An amazing camping area, really quiet and spots spread out. It felt like we had the place to ourselves, beautiful view of the stars. Great communication and easy to find, the track is a bit off-road but they do recommend a 4x4 (we did it in a RAV4). Super chill and friendly host!

Beautiful, well kept sites close to dam with fishing an option I really enjoyed. Dave is a great host, escorted us in and showed us all the sites and gave us our pick. Pretty much first in best dressed. Great fire pits, bellbirds, whip birds and cows your main company while you're there. Will definitely be back.

Lovely spot down by the dam, very well shaded in the arvo. We got some site info mixed-up and rocked up in our 2WD so we had to park up top, but Dave helped us move all our gear with the buggy. Very helpful.

We loved how welcoming the hosts are, the location is great for day trips to Pomona and Eumundi. Loved how much space we had to enjoy the Cooroy country side, just us, the cows and the birds. Beautiful.

We loved our weekend at Bunya Ridge. The property is beautiful and peaceful. The campsite was spacious and flat, it was great having the firewood already there next to the fire pit. Thank you Dave for letting us stay at your lovely property for the weekend

Our family Easter camping trip was just beautiful & we loved how peaceful the farm was. Thankyou to Dave & fam for making us feel so welcome & helping us settle in, from guiding us down in our 4WD; giving us a tour on the buggy; pointing out some special birds (Tawny Frog Mouths), delivering fire wood & fresh eggs to our little private spot at the bottom.

Dave’s spot is great. We did a weekend out of Brisbane with mates. Dave took us around and showed the kids the cows, told us where to find the wildlife, was just a lovely bloke. Great spot. Peaceful, well maintained. Would definitely go back.

Lovely property and campsites and toilet facilities were a big bonus. Unfortunately we couldn't access the bush sites with our little van, but were able to stay up on a plateau in view of the house. Even so, we didn't feel uncomfortable and the views from this spot were beautiful. As mentioned by the host the track definitely does get a little slippery in the wet, and as mentioned in nearly every other review, Dave is indeed a top bloke!

Lovely private camping site. Thank you Dave for being an awesome host! We were well looked after and showed us through around the campsite. The area was spacious and we loved waking up in the morning with the sound of birds chirping. Thank you Dave! Highly recommend this place. 💫

Private and quiet - all campsites are well dispersed so other campers were rarely seen or heard. The farm cows were curious but never a bother. Dave is a fantastic host who goes over and beyond the norm to make sure you are welcome and looked after. He also provides a good pile of wood for fires - be sure to take up that option.

Such a beautiful property. Dave is an awesome host. Gave us a farm tour in his buggy. Hubby had success fishing for bass in one of the dams from the kayak provided. Sites are well spaced apart so lovely and private. Definitely need a 4wd for access but Dave is great about talking you through that. Looking forward to coming back.

Incredibly private and secluded. Only background noise were the birds and the cattle, so relaxing! Dave was an incredible host and the facilities/sites were well maintained and spaced out. Would camp here every weekend if possible!
