Not private - Neighbours very close
Not what we were expecting. Neighbours were very close by and quite loud at times. Were warned when we got there theat they can be aggressive (this kind of information should be provided prior to booking/arrival). Granted we didn't have any run ins with them, their close proximity wasn't desirable. The few places we have stayed at previously have felt much more remote/isolated. The host was accommodating and offered for us to stay at the other site but that was 25m from where he was staying and not what we were after. We have 3 dogs who we like to let roam but couldn't do so freely in this place. Granted the ad does state to keep dogs within the tree line so that was made clear prior to arrival. Owner also has dogs which wasn't stated in the ad. Felt much more like staying in someone's residential backyard than a remote rural setting. I'm sure it would suit a number of families/campers but wasn't what we were looking for. Possibly our fault for not asking enough questions upfront.

Great spot
This is a very cool campsite which we were fortunate enough to have all to ourselves. Love the unique fire pit and lights. It rained for prob 90% of the time but you can’t pick the weather. Lucky there are plenty of trees for shelter.

Great spot. Loved it.
We had a great stay. Nice spot to camp and have a camp fire. Close to the beach as well which was nice. Pack your mosquito repellent as there were quite a few but I suspect that’s due to all the rain we have been having this season. We will definitely stay again. Thanks for having us.

Beautiful part of the world!
Lovely place to camp up and enjoy some down time. Beautiful grass spot great for both kids and dogs. Very private spot. Close to cool little towns, including the beautiful South West Rocks. Andrew checked in with us and then left us to it which we appreciated.
