Whichever way you choose there is loads to see and do when you base yourself here! Bringing the kids...? head to Auburn 8 mins away and have a hit of mini golf, or stroll the historic Main Street and stop for gelato at one of the many little shops. No kids...? Auburn's Main Street is a haven for Adults too with everything from antiques, vintage clothing, women's wear, homewares, gin distillery, multiple cellar doors and wood fired pizzas on the lawns at Main 23.

Clare Valley View - PRIVATE scrub
We loved camping at Clare Valley View. We camped up the top of the hill near the cattle yard. Most amazing sunsets! Close enough to Saddleworth and other towns, as well as Clare Valley wineries. Highly recommend this place

Clare Valley View - PRIVATE scrub
I drove my Subaru Levorg to this lovely paddock (so 4wd not required on a dry day) and spent a night stargazing and a morning reading and drinking coffee, listening to the birds. The cows are lovely and inquisitive but I must admit the bull did surprise me when it ran after my car when I first got there, probably thinking I was the feed wagon 😄 It was relatively easy to find and not far from Auburn, which has lovely Cafes (more coffee!!) and shops. Really recommend if you love peace and quiet 👌

Such an amazing property! Definitely worth checking it out! It is in such a stunning location. Felt like we were in own own little personal retreat. Thank you Rachael for letting us stay on your property. We are so glad we found this location to set up camp.

We had a wonderful time, loved the freedom of picking a spot that suited us, very handy given how windy it was! But the ground is nice and solid so our tents stayed put no problem 😁 The cows stayed at a distance and the sunset was incredible! Recommend this to anyone who is self sufficient ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Such a peaceful experience with incredible views. We did have issues with bees, however, we just ignored them.

Clare Valley View - PRIVATE scrub
This is an exceptional place! Can’t believe we had this whole place to ourselves! The property is a short 30 minute drive to the heart of the wine region. There is an exceptional coffee shop in the small town of Sadleworth which is 10 minutes away, and another fantastic cafe in Auburn, again just 10 minutes away. The property itself has so many different options, all of which are there for you to decide…. we chose a spot right near the dam, there were birds galore, a kangaroo visit and the curious cows are so cute! We drove to a high point on the property one evening, set ourselves up to enjoy a spectacular view of the valley at sunset. Rachael is an amazing host, she cares very deeply for the land and the campers coming to visit.
