Robe Camel Farm - Self Contained Campers Only

We had the place all to ourselves and TJ invited us to go up the road to see the camels and they were so friendly!! Came for scratches. Such a beautiful experience.

Shady 2 - Magic little spot

6 m travel trailer · With pets ·

What a fantastic stay! Tara-Jae and her husband were extremely welcoming and Shady 2 was an excellent camp site. Tucked off of the main track in its little nook, we felt like we were in the middle of the bush. We also went on the camel feeding safari which was so fun! Their dog Max was also super friendly and came to visit us regularly as we had 2 dogs with us. Along with camels we got to see peacocks, a horse and donkey, chickens and a wallaby! We will definitely stay here again as we thoroughly loved it! Thank you Tara-Jae 😊

We camped at Shady 2. Quiet and private. Lots of farms life happening around us with bee hives, chickens and peacocks all around. Camel milking tour was fun and interesting. Robe main street very close and easy to access.

Amazing time

Cannot say enough good things about this spot. The paddocks can be tight but for the location it is completely worth it. Max, one of the farm dogs, was as cute as can be and even with our reactive dog was so submissive and friendly. We were able to join the owner on the nightly feed of the camels and were reminded just how incredible these creatures are! You have to try the camel milk as well. Just google all the benefits! Knowing how well these animals are treated makes it that much more special. Highly, highly recommend and cannot wait to return.

Die Kamele waren sehr spannend zum beobachten und die Kinder Hatten Freude an den Hunden. Es war ein spannender Stopp.

Fun for the kids

We loved our stay at the camel farm. We managed to squeeze our 22foot an in to the shady site 2 but it was a bit of a mission to get out. It was out of the wind and secluded. We went for a walk and met the donkey and pony as well as the camels which made the stay fun!

Great potential to he had

12 m travel trailer · With kids ·

The idea of camping on a camel farm is such a fun and unique concept, and it was something I was really excited to share with my children. They loved being able to pat the camels and meet the donkey, which was definitely a highlight of our stay. That said, I did feel a little disappointed overall. At $70 per night for an unpowered site, it felt quite expensive for what was offered. I think the experience could be greatly enhanced by allowing campers to help feed the camels or donkey — that would make it feel more interactive and memorable, especially for families. It would also be great to have generators banned, as the campers next to us ran theirs all night, which really took away from the peaceful farm atmosphere. Unfortunately, we also scratched our van on arrival, as the directions weren’t very clear — we weren’t told to enter via the main gate for paddock campers, and instead were looking for “Shady 1” and “Shady 2” signs in a fairly tight, bushy area. Overall, there’s a lot of potential here, and with a few improvements this could be a really special stay.

We had a great stay in Shady 1. Was a bit tricky turning around within the site. I would recommend reversing in to the site if you’re towing a camper longer than 3.5m. A walk around the camel farm revealed some great surprises, like the peacocks and chooks and a very friendly donkey. And the camels were fabulous!

Lovely little bush camp adjacent to the camel farm. Watch the bee hives while the Guinea Fowls and Peacocks inspect your camp.

Camping with the farm animals!

Tent ·

What a fantastic spot to spend a night or more!! The campsite (Shady 2) was perfect and the hobby farm with the Darcy the Donkey, Peacocks, Chooks and of course Camels was lovely! TJ the host was super friendly and you absolutely cannot stay without at least doing the Camel Safari!! Was so much fun and totally worth it. We will be back to try the Camel milking tour next! Thanks for having us. 100% recommend 🙂

We loved this bush space in a quiet spot just outside of Robe. There were a few others in the the other site, but the spaces feel private and spacious enough for our large van. We also bought a few things from the camel farm. Good stay. Enjoyed it!

Due to wind we swapped our stay at Paddock 2 to Shady 2. The spot was private and sheltered from the wind. We also decided to take a tour of the farm, meet the camels and sample some camel milk and ice cream. It was lovely to meet Tara who was very friendly and gave a very interesting tour. We felt very welcomed on the property and were able to take an evening walk and have another look at the camels. Perfect for an off-road self-contained trip.

Camping with Camels: loved it

Camel Farm - The Paddock 3

Our kids absolutely LOVED this place and has been a highlight of the past 3 weeks travel. Stayed 2 nights but kids could have stayed longer. We enjoyed the peace and tranquility with no other travellers there so had the place to ourselves. Would recommend paddock 3 as it’s a little further away from the duck pen. We thought the camels would probs stink us out early but they didn’t smell at all. Great place and lovely owners who truly love what they do. 100% recommend.

Good location but very small sites

8 m travel trailer ·

Close to town and Long beach. There are 3 caravan sites called Paddock 1, Paddock 2, Paddock 3 however don't be confused - these are not in a paddock but rather an area to the side of where the Camel Farm tours are run from and are very small 5 meter wide sites side by side. We were fortunate that no one occupied the other 2 while we were there but if they were, our annex would have been touching the next van. Caravans enter through the Camel Farm double steel gates, don't turn right at the Shady 1 sign as instructed - maybe this could be updated on Hipcamps.

My girls loved the farm stay! We stayed on Paddock 1 which is next to the duck enclosure. You need to enter through the camel farm gate, NOT at shady 1 and shady 2 signs. The gate was shut and had a sign to say the farm was closed, but we were told to just open and close it behind us. Lots of space to roam around and see the camels, ducks, guineafowl, pigeons and Guinea pigs. We booked a morning milking tour which was great as our girls got to feed the camels, watch them being milked and taste camel milk. TJ was super friendly and happy to answer all of our questions about camels! Camel jerky was delicious too! The resident dogs, max and missy, were very cute and friendly and our dog got on well with them. Was a super wet and windy day/night when we checked in and the camp spots aren’t sheltered from the wind so just something to be mindful of. Would still recommend this property and would stay here again! Thank you TJ and Warrick for a great stay!

Not private, very cramped.

5 m car ·

Be aware this campsite is in the parking lot & extremely cramped - not 1 of 3 paddocks - there is infact, three campsites packed into a space only large enough only for 2 4WDs with rooftop tents off a road inches from the site that's highly frequented.

We loved the place , waking up to camels on the first day , then second we had peacock and guineafowl. Was very well located only a 10 min drive to Robe. We had the weather against us but was well shielded well by the trees. Our fur baby Cleo made friends with Max and his companion the jack russels who came to see us every morning. Would recommend if you want to be just outside of robe with a bit of peace and quiet.

Ripper little place to explore robe from or just stay in and relax. Camel farm is great for the kids and the hosts are super accommodating. Shady 1 or 2 are the pick of the spots if you can fit. Shady 2 is a semi drive through spot, can fit a small camper trailer/hybrid if you’re good at manoeuvring/reversing.

Camel Farm - The Paddock 3

My family of 5 loved our stay at the Camel Farm. Beautiful camp site, friendly hosts and of course the camels. We all loved having the chance to go for a walk and visit the camels, even got a chance to hand feed the babies. Water and dump point just a short drive into the great little town of Robe. Highly recommend.
