Our 25 acre country block is located only 5 km from the CBD, but provides a very rural outlook. We have 2 dams which provide a haven for ducks and waterbirds. We have 6 alpacas that wander around the paddocks, as well as chickens, kangaroos, wallabies and prolific birdlife. The views are quite beautiful to the south and east. We are very close to the World Heritage New England National Park and the Oxley Wild Rivers National Park, where bushwalking is abundant, along with spectacular waterfalls. The University of New England is well worth a visit, as well as beautiful churches, Cathedrals and many more historic buildings, and small townships close by. The sites are self-service with no amenities available, so best suited to those happy to be self-sufficient and with a 'leave no trace' approach. If you are into rock climbing, there is some great adventures to be had at Gara Gorge. Not for the faint hearted:))

Hope Hill | 143-Acre Private Conservation Rainforest & Yoga Retreat – 4x4 & MTB Hope Hill is not easy to get to, and that’s exactly why you’ll love it. If that excites your adventurous side, you’ve found the perfect site. Set on 143 acres of private conservation land in the stunning Northern Tablelands rainforest, there’s no road noise—just ancient trees, huge skies, and bushland that seems to go on forever. If you’re feeling sore after your hike, join us for morning yoga and meditation. Participation is completely optional. The adventure starts on the driveway. You WILL need a low-range 4x4 to access Hope Hill. When it’s wet, or if you’ve packed your vehicle or caravan like you’re moving house, you WILL need a winch and proper recovery gear. Large caravans and low-clearance rigs won’t make it—this one is for true off-road adventurers. Once you’re in, you’ve got the whole place to explore. Bring your mountain bike—this is your own private riding playground. Ride straight from camp across steep rainforest tracks, old logging trails, creek crossings, and raw natural singletrack. It’s not groomed; it’s wild, technical, and completely private. Then slow down and explore the bush. Hope Hill is alive with wildlife. Koalas are often spotted dozing in the gums, platypuses can be seen in the creek at last light, and our resident lyrebird is the best alarm clock in the bush—putting on a full concert every morning from around 6 am. You can’t snooze him! This is off-grid, self-sufficient, leave-no-trace camping for people who want the real wild. Think campfire nights, star-drenched skies, sore legs, and big smiles. FOR MOUNTAIN BIKERS: BYO MTB or e-MTB. You’ll have 143 acres of private, natural terrain to explore. Expect steep, raw, loose rainforest riding—not a groomed bike park. Helmets are essential, and a repair kit is mandatory. WILDLIFE: This is protected conservation habitat. Please stick to existing tracks, keep noise to a minimum, and leave no trace. ACCESS – PLEASE READ BEFORE YOU BOOK: • LOW-RANGE 4x4 ESSENTIAL. 2WD and AWD vehicles will not make it in. • The track gets slick and steep in wet weather. A winch and recovery gear are highly recommended. • Not suitable for large, low-clearance caravans, big camper trailers, or on-road vans. • You must be experienced in 4x4 driving and self-recovery. BRING: Bring all drinking water, power supplies, food, and fuel. You must be fully self-contained and check current fire bans before your stay. There are no bins, so please pack it in and pack it out. Hope Hill is for 4x4 drivers, mountain bikers, hikers, and wildlife lovers who want something wild, not manicured. Please be aware that there may be road closures on weekday mornings. The road is generally open in the afternoons, on Sundays, and on public holidays. Please research current road closures before travelling, as we cannot be responsible for or predict closures implemented by the local shire. Travelling on Sundays or public holidays may help you avoid potential road closures. If the road is closed, many visitors stop for a bite to eat at the Bellbrook Hotel while waiting for it to reopen.

Lovely quiet spot just off the highway. We had a lovely night and enjoyed a fire and the beautiful surrounds with our young kids.

We think it is a great place to stopover for the night or even a few days as a base camp. Sarah gave good directions on how to get there plus on where to park our van. Sites were reasonably level with just slight adjustments required. Fires are allowed. The site we chose had a firepit already built. Plenty of firewood on the property. Can hear some traffic noise as not far off the highway. Only really hear it if you listen out for it. It dies down on dark for a peaceful nights sleep. Dog friendly.

Weekend Trip to The Harvest House

Just too easy. Pulled off the highway and down a road -we were there. So convenient for an overnight on our way back to Brissy. Didn't meet the hosts, it was raining but there was a fire pit we would have used had it been dry enough. It was very private and quiet, nice flat little area to pull up to. Saw a lovely little wallabe, just a beautiful setting to wake up to.

I loved the peace and quiet of the location. We used the camp as base for our day trips. Very basic camp but beautiful grassed area just what we needed. Thankyou Sarah for letting us share your peace of serenity.
