In the early 1970’s Mr James, the owner of 'Biara', subdivided three 25 acre blocks across the road from the original homestead. The first block was sold to his nephew, the middle block was to be purchased by the Preston family and ‘The Gateway’ was purchased by a Mr Carveth.
Unfortunately, the sale of the middle block fell through then, due to family illness, 'Biara' was sold and the family moved to Blackheath. After this move, and as thank you to his son, Mr James transferred the title of the middle of the three subdivided blocks to his only son, William.
Back in the late 1960’s, early 1970’s, the area was vastly different than it is today. Travelling to school entailed a car trip to Hargraves then bus to Mudgee which would have been a 2 hour round trip! The area was far more isolated as there was no power and entailed an overland phone line, which had to be regularly repaired if residents wanted to be able to communicate with the outside world.
The site allows mainly for camping and relaxing although there are numerous dirt roads to explore, Mudgee wineries close by and Burrendong Dam not far away (accessible via Hill End Road near Erudgere). Hargraves is also known for it's alluvial gold deposits and fossickers still go there regularly to check out Louisa Creek.
There is 15km's of dirt road which needs to be traveled to reach the property. Dependent on weather, and if it has been graded recently, this road can be in varying states of repair. In heavy rain it may be difficult to get 2WD access via the public road due to the clay content in the road .
Kangaroo, wallaby, owl species, kookaburra, echidna, snakes, various lizards, including shinglebacks, are often seen on these roads and the property.

We are Marilyn and Peter, we own, live and run a mixed farming business from this beautiful land, located in the Central Tablelands NSW.
The country varies between undulating and steep land and has 7 km of double frontage Bell River running through it.
The river can range from rapidly flowing to the more usual steady flowing and is most often very clear. The river has numerous swimming spots, some with a rocky base, and some with sand. The winding river and the varying countryside is incredibly peaceful and beautiful and is a perfect retreat for those looking to disconnect and relax.
The river has its origin near Orange and is also fed into by many springs. Weandre Creek runs in the backcountry and winds into the Bell River.
Our comfortable Hut is situated on an elevated spot looking down on the river with a graduated road leading down. It has everything you need for a relaxing, recharging stay in nature.
The Hut can accommodate up to 4 people, however, you also have the option for up to 6 additional guests to set up swags, tents, or a camper trailer nearby. There is space next to the Hut, or for those with a 4WD, there are some lovely camping sites down by the river.
We also offer sites for those looking for a self-contained camping site, in a beautiful location.
We love the solitude, the endless bush walks, swimming, and being immersed in nature. We are confident you will too.
We also have a lovely art gallery on the property, and for a small fee and prior arrangement, you are welcome to come and take a look.
From our farm, it is 60 km to Orange with all its wineries, food festivals, and many attractions. Wellington is 40 km and boasts the Wellington Caves. Dubbo is 90 km and is a big inland city and boasts the Western Plains Zoo.
We are so glad to let you know we have a new (but intentionally rustic) structure which houses a shower powered by gas and solar with gravity fed water.
Showers need to be short because water supply is limited.
In a separate space is a gas BBQ and sink.
This is pictured in our latest photos.
This building also looks down on the Bell river which looks sensational at the moment due to all the rain.

Unwind by getting back to nature
Perfect for small groups seeking privacy and immersion in nature, this secluded camping site sits on the banks of the Wambuul–Macquarie River in the remote Killongbutta Valley, midway between Bathurst and Orange.
Here, time slows. Days unfold to the steady rhythm of flowing water, birdsong and the soft whisper of sheoaks moving in the wind. It’s a place to unplug, exhale and reconnect — with nature, with one another, and with your own creativity.
Many stories and dreamings have emerged from this landscape. Artists, writers, poets and musicians often find it a place of deep inspiration and reflection.
A walk along Killongbutta Road reveals sweeping rural vistas across Wiradjuri Country —a river valley layered with history, including ancient stone quarry sites, corroboree grounds and the resting place of a warrior.
The river itself is alive with platypus, water dragons and rakali (native water rats). Wombats have made their homes in the riverbanks, and you may find yourself sharing the space with these quiet, nocturnal neighbours.

We loved the peace of having the campsite to ourselves! The view is stunning, the composting toilet is lovely and clean, and there was ample space to set up where we wanted. We chose not to have a fire because the weather was hot, but the fire pit looked really cool!

Beautiful spot, we will be back again. The host were incredible. They welcomed us to their farm at the beginning of our stay. But then we didn’t really see them for the rest of it. Location was secluded and beautiful.

What a beautiful peaceful location. We had the place to ourselves. Views at sunrise and sunset were lovely. Kangaroos, wallabies, rabbits and birdlife. You can position yourself right at the vines, which were full of grapes. One very small let down was that we were only informed on the day of arrival, was that the cellar door was closed for renovations, which were were very looking forward to walking up and having a wine/tasting. Highly recommend this Hipcamp.

We loved our stay and Lyndon Hill. Perfect location for exploring Orange.
Sam was very generous with her time and knowledge. Can recommend the sourdough!
We even had a swim in the dam and picked some blackberries! Would highly recommend this site!
Thanks again Sam!

We loved our time at Dunollie Ridge. We expected to find that the previous reviews were over-the-top; Nope, they were not! It's proximity to Mudgee and Gulgong are an additional draw-card if that is what you want, though far enough away to absolutely guarantee that feeling of just being away from civilisation!
Given that the whole area is currently experiencing a mini drought this did not reduce our genuine love of this place, thank you Adam.

Was peaceful and relaxing, till another campers decided 430am was a great time to pack up to leave, some people just have no common sense or camp etiquette.
Other than that me and the kids enjoyed swimming exploring and just outdoors nature.

Marilyn and Peter are the kind of hosts you hope for, welcoming, helpful and friendly. Marilyn was responsive leading up to the trip, greeted us on arrival and guided us to camp. Peter stopped in for a yarn and to check in on us during our hot stay too.
The campsite along the creek was the perfect private escape. Nothing but beauty, peace and quiet.
Wonderful country hospitality and charm! Thank you so much for having is on your stunning property.

Thanks Marje for sharing this Incredible place with us. We had a great stay. Southern end of camp with shade was a must in the heat. We did have some branches land on the roof during an afternoon storm, don't camp too close to the trees. We saw turtles, goannas, yabbies, trout and plenty of roos. Kids loved the swing and floating down the river. The drive in appears worse than it is, very well maintained track and was no trouble towing a pop up camper. Toilet was such a luxury. Very much enjoyed the solitude and having the space to ourselves. Definitely a memorable getaway. Thank you!

This place is magic and perfect for groups. The pictures don’t do justice to the views. Adam is so friendly, and brought up a baby lamb for the kids to feed. We will definitely be back!

Absolutely loved our stay at Billy O’Bush Retreat!
We camped on a powered site with two families and kids aged 7–11, and we honestly couldn’t recommend it more highly. From the moment we arrived, it felt welcoming and relaxed. The campsite itself was fantastic, plenty of space, well set up, and the amenities were spotless and easy to access.
A huge highlight was Mark, who was absolutely amazing with the kids. He went above and beyond to engage them, and there was so much for them to do that they were entertained the entire time. The kids had an absolute blast!
It’s the perfect mix of adventure, family-friendly fun, and comfort. We made so many great memories and left already talking about our next visit. We will definitely be back, highly, highly recommended!

Overview
About
Hugging the shoreline of massive Lake Burrendong, this park offers sweeping views of the human-made reservoir and is a popular base camp for watersports like sailing, canoeing, and water skiing. The Reflections Holiday and Caravan Park has two different locations within the park and a range of camping options. Hipcampers seeking creature comforts can stay in air-conditioned cabins, while those who want a back-to-basics bush experience can opt for powered or unpowered sites, many with lake and dam vistas. Kids love the playground and waterslide, and adults can play, too, at the nine-hole golf course.
Tips for snagging a campsite
- Book cabins and campsites online at the Reflections Holiday Parks website.
- Summer holidays and Easter weekend tend to be the busiest times, so book well in advance to guarantee a spot.
- If you’re too late, join the holiday waitlist online to be notified in case a space opens up.
When to go
Summer is the best time to enjoy swimming and boating at Lake Burrendong, but it’s also the busiest time. Go during the shoulder seasons in late spring or early fall for mild weather with fewer crowds. Wintertime campers can enjoy more privacy while staying cozy in one of the cabins, but be prepared for rain.
Know before you go
- Unlike most NSW campgrounds, pets are welcome at the Reflections Holiday and Caravan Park. Call the park directly to book if planning to bring a furry friend.
- There is a fee to enter the park, even for day-trippers.
- Water levels in the reservoir fluctuate based on the season and drought conditions.
- Cabins can accommodate up to six people.
