Peaceful and tranquil

Ross is a great host, we meet Ross on arriving and he showed us the camping sites and we were free to choose where to camp. Ross's place is conveniently located with easy driving to Kempsey, South West Rocks and Crescent Head. Camping on Ross's land is like camping in your own backyard as the grass is nicely mowed. We would definitely recommend this place as we will be back.

Great camping area

Picturesque setting. Having a fire was sensational. Didn't take our dog, but it is pet friendly and the courtyard at the pub is as well. Ross keeps the grounds beautifully mown and the camp areas are big, flat and grassy. The camp is only a short 3.5km into the quaint village of Gladstone.

Quiet spot, close to as described tourist areas, good eel fishing. Bring some sausages or any red meat that will do the trick.

We loved our stay, nice sunset spot and moonrise. Good spot as a base camp to explore around (crescent head, hathead and south west rocks). We will be back for sure.
