We are located just off the Horrocks Highway on the way to the Clare Valley amongst 42 acres of peppermint gum scrub sheltered by the ranges west of Tarlee. Here you will find lovely spread out camping spots with plenty of space to explore, quiet country roads for walking or riding with spectacular views of the ranges and valley as well as Kangaroos, Kookaburras and more native wildlife. Bush camping at its best. Firewood available to purchase on arrival, $25 for a large container and fire drums are provided. NO CHAINSAWS A beautiful peaceful spot with plenty of space for caravans, campers, tents and swags. We have a small flock of sheep to pat, children love to ride their push bikes down the hills and through the tracks. Our scrub is perfect for outdoor imagination and bundles of energy. Campers have made cubbies in the trees, tyre swings and set up hammocks for lazy afternoons or a swing. Pick a site that suits you best, set up camp, light a fire and sit back and relax. Pet friendly. Long drop toilet available.

Amazing view. We arrived in an absolute storm. Rain going sideways. Russell & Alison were on hand to show us where to set up but given the weather we headed for a motel. The property is beautiful with a variety of great looking camp spots. We’ll be back :)

The camp-site is beautiful and well kept. Peaceful clean and surrounded by beautiful scenery. Although there is a 'bush toilet', it was clean and didn't smell at all. Perfect spot to unwind, enjoy nature.

Fantastic camping spot ! First time here and would recommend to anyone. We really enjoyed our time amongst nature and beauty of the place.. it was peaceful and serene. We also enjoyed time in front of the fire at night. Lots of space to explore during the day, and we were grateful for the pit toilet. Thanks Russell and Alison for your beautiful place!

Great little place to camp not far from Adelaide. Several camp sites you can chose from with a fire drum ready to use. Long drop toilet that is very well maintained. Easy to find location with good instructions and the host were very easy going and friendly. Will camp there again!

Beautiful spot to spend a few days around a campfire. Loved the fire pits and that you could purchase wood so easily. Sites are well away from others and some are pretty level for a van. The drop toilet is a winner! It was so nice to be able to let the dogs off the leash- they had a wonderful time too! Thank you Alison for your help 😊

This is our fourth time here -- our favourite HipCamp spot so far. The hosts are fantastic and accommodating. They keep the long-drop in such good nick I'd say its the best I've seen. Well done to the hosts for keeping the place so beautiful and for being great hosts.

We had a wonderful time camping at Tarlee - Serenity. Our hosts, Russell and Allison, were incredibly welcoming. The campsites were generously spaced and set among trees and lush greenery across a peaceful paddock. A centrally located drop toilet was clean and well-maintained. The scenery was beautiful, and the area had very little road noise. Firepits were available, and dogs were welcome, which we really appreciated. We highly recommend a visit and definitely plan to return in the future.
