**Summer Season 2024/2025** Due to an over demand we require weekend stays during the Summer months November to March to be a minimum two night stay. Guests are required to check in on Fridays, with Friday and Saturday nights as the two night minimum. Weekends during this period need to be booked by contacting hosts who will open the sites on the calendar on request to allow the booking to be done online. Those guests requiring a longer stay that overlap a weekend can also be accommodated. Just give us a call and we will find a spot for you. If you are checking dates and a weekend is open, then luck is with you and I have opened the calendar as I'm working on site. If this is the case, single night stays can be booked. *_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_* Looking for a peaceful and secluded spot to park up whilst exploring the Yarra Valley winery region, the Dandenong Ranges, or some of Melbourne's close regional towns like Healesville, Yarra Glen and Warburton? We have opened up a beautiful flat expanse at the rear of our five acre property and made it available to self contained campers and caravaners. We are travelers ourselves and often find it difficult to find peaceful yet secure spots that allow us to explore capital cities and the lovely areas around them. Most cities tend to have caravan parks in the outer suburbs and these can often resemble concrete jungles and be very busy leaving you feel like you have to pay a top premium to be cramped into a space. But what options do you have if you want to explore a vibrant city like Melbourne. See a show, do some shopping, eat out at some of the World's greatest restaurants. Yes, we all should splurge every now and then even when on the road. Our property lies at the very start of the Yarra Valley. It is surrounded on three sides by the magnificent Helens Hill vineyard. In the Summer months you can watch the fruit come onto the vines and in the Winter the views open up to see the kangaroos bouncing though the rows and often silhouetted against the skyline sunsets. We are less than 5 minutes to Lilydale town center. Supermarkets, restaurants, service centers, parts stores, hardware are all on the doorstep, yet looking out over the vines you wouldn't know. Lilydale is 38 kms from Melbourne CBD and there is a train station with ample day parking making it super easy to explore the heart of Melbourne and return 'home' to your country retreat for the night. Myki cards available on site FOC. There is a dump point only 3kms away at a local caravan park for those that need it and at our property water can be available to fill your tanks if needed for a small donation. There is no water or power connection on the sites but you can release your grey water to nourish the grass. Lilydale has a large laundromat available to you. We have a beautiful covered eating area with BBQ available so if the weather turns inclement you can still eat out yet under cover. All campers must be 100% self contained. These are remote sites with no connections and there are no toilet facilities available. We have restricted our area to a maximum of 6 sites to ensure that everyone has their space. Sites are not marked and locations will be on a first booked basis. Owners will direct you to your areas. The area is beautifully flat and does absorb water well but care must be taken to not tear it up after heavy rains. Please seek assistance from owners rather than tearing up the grass as a tractor is available. We can cater for large sized vans and even large motorhomes. Tents are welcome. The property is pet friendly but not fully fenced so your furry friends would need to be on lead. We have our own dogs on the property. Hipcamp being USA based describes the sites and vehicles in USA terms and lengths. There is no way to alter this but please be aware. We cater for Aussie sized caravans and 4wd vehicles. 14 or 15m long all up, no problem. Just in a 4x4 with roof top tent and awning, we have you covered. Cruising the country in a Commodore with a pop top, all good here. Please be aware that we do share a boundary with a working vineyard and they do occasionally have a tractor or crew out in the vines doing some work. There can be a bit of farm machinery work every now and then but this is beyond our control and generally very minimal as vines dont take much looking after unless its harvest night.

We loved our stay with Robert and Susie, the campsite was a nice grassy spot with great views of a vineyard. We loved the yarra valley and a visit to Tarrawara winery was a must do.

Hidden Gem in the Vineyards
We absolutely loved this place. The hosts were so welcoming and friendly. We were very close to the vineyards and Helen's Hill vineyard is right next door and it's a must-see and do. We had a view of the dam and the cute family of mum and dad as well as ducklings roaming around the paddock. You definitely won't be disappointed when you stay here.

Yarra Valley Vineyard Views Site 4
Our selected site 4 wasn’t exactly what we were expecting. Whilst we knew we had a farm shed on one side of the site we thought we had an unobscured view over the adjoining vineyard. Unfortunately other sites when occupied, as they were, did obscure our view. However Rob did assist us by providing another site for us to move to overlooking their landscaped dam. Our stay was peaceful and we really enjoyed our stay.

How lucky are we that Robert and Suzie have opened up their picturesque, tranquil property to fellow travelers. Both hosts were super friendly when we opened up conversation and gave great advice for questions we had. Thanks

Our 2nd trip to Rob and Susie's fabulous property. We even extended our stay whilst we were here and Rob went above and beyond to accommodate our last minute additional stay. VIP treatment for sure! Rob and Susie are so welcoming and engaging with all their guests and we very much appreciate their hospitality. A perfect place not far from the burbs, but far enough away to enjoy the peaceful nature of the property and adjoining vineyards. We can't wait to come back again and again! Thankyou!

Lilydale vineyard view magic no 2
Part 2: No need to worry about tourist and crowds here, just like minded travellers doing the same as you. Waking up in the morning or enjoying the stunning sunset with a coffee or wine, will definitely leave you with special memories. Dogs are very welcome and you’ll get to socialise daily with Rob & Sue’s dog - Wolf, a gentle giant, to our little ones. It was a pleasure to wander up the vineyard to Helens Hill and enjoy a wine tasting followed by a casual cafe meal. It was made extra special that they welcome dogs open armed and are welcome to sit with you whilst you eat. Sundays they have music as a bonus. Back to Rob & Sue, this is how a Hipcamp should be run, you won’t regret it, just book!
