Enjoy the serenity! Bring your horses and your dog, bring your guitar, a good book, even bring a golf set and a bucket of balls. You will have 80 acres of stunning country all to yourselves. Only one booking taken at a time. No one else will be anywhere near! Self-contained campers only, please bring in what you need, and take all waste with you.
Base price covers up to 8 people, with capacity capped at 12 people.
The land is characterised by rolling hills, covered by mostly open grassland, with patches of gum trees for shade, and a dam and creek. There's also a native eucalypt forest right across the road with miles of fire trails for walking and horse riding. In the cooler months, the land turns from shades of gold to greens.
There are no facilities, its just you and the land (bliss!) so ensure you have everything you need with you, and take all your waste when you leave.
If you fancy fresh fish for dinner, just down the road is Tuki Trout Farm, or nearby Cairn Curran Reservoir and Tullaroop Reservoir are great for fishing. The tourist villages of Newstead, Clunes and Maldon are all a short drive away, and Daylesford is just 35km drive.
Campfires are permitted when fire bans are not in place.
NOTE: We do offer the neighbouring 50-acre paddock for hunting/shooting - with conditions. Please note, this activity is offered separately to our Hipcamp operation and needs to be organised with us directly. Also, we do not allow hunting/shooting next door, if there is a group camping already.We offer wide-open farmland for you to spend several nights under the stars, away from it all. You'll have fifty acres all to yourself. Self-contained campers only, please bring in what you need, and take all waste with you.
Many people have been to the “Lees Bush” site and several to “Stonebridge”. These are hilly landscapes with many scattered gum trees, a mix of open land and Australian bush. All of the user posted photographs and reviews are about these sites.
“Open Plains” is an idea I set up for people who might want something very different. Type -37 point 178793, 143 point 920621 into Google Maps (point means decimal.
The site was intended to be on the east side of Swamp Road.
It is a very different landscape to the other sites. It is flat farmland with few if any trees. Not much shade – basically none!
I might not be selling it too well!
