Once a much larger property, we purchased our 120-acre (50-hectare) in 1984 as a means to live sustainably and raise a family. Living in our shed whilst we prepared the garden, put in watering infrastructure and built our house which we finally moved in when our daughter was 6 months old in 1990. Over the ensuing years we have continued to increase biodiversity on the property and set it up so we can live sustainably, harvesting our own water, electricity and food. If your lucky you could get a hamper of our product when there is sufficient in season. With the increased biodiversity you will find that in the mornings and evenings kangaroos and wallabies will visit with the occasional echidna, rabbit and hare; and to forget the large array of bird life - that may wake you early in the morning with the songs. This campsite is set on lovely grassy open areas interspersed with gum trees. The sunrise looks spectacular near the dam, when the trees give off a lovely glow. The main paddock has a Geodome, a shared space for relaxing in. With all that space you can park and set up camp anywhere in the paddock. There is access to drinking water, toilets, and a hot shower. Around the dome is a firepit, drinking water and a camp kitchen. The firepit features an Argentinian BBQ and a plate for cooking. The kitchen has plates, cups, cutlery, and other bits and pieces for you to use. If you want exclusive use of the paddocks - refer to Group Bush Retreat.

Perfect for our family
Our first time camping with young kids. Margot’s place was perfect for us and had everything we could need. Plus it was all well looked after and super clean (toilet etc).

Really great spot! Margo is very friendly and couldn't do too much for us to enjoy our stay. Great amenities and super clean. Instructions on how to find the property were really simple and communication was spot on. Thanks Margot!

Perfect spot for a quiet night camp. Margot was very friendly and helpful. Facilities were clean and tidy. Our kids loved exploring amongst the trees. Margot’s dried fruit was a great extra. Easy access to site.

Despite the rain when we arrived we had beautiful clear skies and sat with the kids watching shooting stars. Facilities are above average and very well kept.

Margot was super host, friendly and helpful. She guided us the way back to Canberra. The location was indeed peaceful. We met Harry’Margot’s Magpie’. Toilet was clean and access to Tap water. I definitely recommend this place.
