Seeking your own private escape to the country? You're welcome to experience our beautiful farmstay 'Coobindah', and enjoy your own EXCLUSIVE campsite, without the crowds! Choose from ONLY TWO campsites on eighty plus acres rural property 'Coobindah'. All campsites are well separated and not visible from each other. To enhance privacy, we take only one booking / group per campsite, therefore you're likely to have the property to yourselves. You'll enjoy peace, nature, amazing views, stunning sunsets, big starry skies, misty valley mornings amidst lovely countryside, farmland and the aussie bush. Relax under the shade of the trees, warm yourself by the campfire, or go walking or mountain biking on our farm. Each campsite has its own rock firepit, and firewood is available (quality split ironbark firewood available in 'extras'). Kangaroos, wallabies and wildlife are often seen on the property, and there's currently no livestock in the paddocks. Pet friendly, family friendly, a quiet retreat for couples / singles, or group bookings available. Old Peppertree campsite is an elevated campsite that has all weather access and is suitable for 2wd and 4wd vehicles, vans, caravans, motorhomes, camper trailers and tents. Bush Camp campsite is further down the back of the property, nearer the bush, down a hill, and is suitable for 4wd / SUV and off-road / higher clearance vehicles, vans, caravans and motorhomes, camper trailers and tents. However access is fairly easy and this is only a recommendation. Both Old Peppertree and Bush Camp campsites are spacious and there's plenty of room to setup and park. 'Coobindah' is just under 2 hours from Brisbane and is located on the Great Dividing Range. It boasts crisp mountain air and glorious views from the hills. 'Coobindah' is a great base from which to explore the Darling Downs. Cooby Dam is just down the road for fishing, kayaking, bush walking, picnic area and playground. The renowned Meringandan Pub is only 5 minutes away to satisfy your appetite. Picturesque Highfields village is only an 8 minute drive for town conveniences, coffee shops, gift shops, cafes, restaurants, the Chocolate Cottage, the Tavern, the new Monty Brewery (pet friendly), and Highfields Falls. We're only 10 minutes to the local winery Rosalie House, the New England Highway, and 11 minutes to the popular Cabarlah markets. The 'Garden City' of Toowoomba is just a 20 minute drive, and has much to offer, including the very popular Carnival of Flowers, held in September each year. The Oakey Army Air Museum is only 20 minutes away. Ravensbourne National Park, Crows Nest Falls, and the fabulous eateries and shops of Crows Nest are only a half hour drive. Lake Cressbrook and Lake Perseverance are also nearby for water activities and within easy driving distances of 3/4 and 1 hour. We hope you can visit and enjoy 'Coobindah' for yourselves!

We really enjoyed our stay at the old pepper tree. The location was easy to find, large, inviting and not far from town and Toowoomba. Thank you for letting us stay.

Camping at Coobindah Bush Camp was so peaceful, quiet and private. Regina was a great host and even put a tarp over our firewood when a light shower happened. Will definitely recommend to our friends and return ourselves.

Stayed at the Bush Camp

We stayed at the Bush Camp over Christmas and it was brilliant. Plenty of room to set up, a fire pit and only the sound of the bush. Regina is a wonderful host and keeps the communication channel open so you are fully informed.

Bush Camp at Coobindah

We stayed at the bush camp. A nice cleared area, with firepit relatively flat, quiet, relaxing and private. The night sky was an awesome sight. Due to our late arrive, we did not get to meet our hosts, but were able to keep in contact via hipcamp. I would recommend staying here, Close to Cooby Dam, Toowoomba, as well as the Toowoomba Speedway.

Great views to unwind

What a fantastic place to stay and unwind. Very clear instructions from Regina and Karl on how to find the site. The Old Pepper Tree had plenty of shade provided by the beautiful old tree and yet plenty of sunshine for our solar panels. Magnificent views by day and a great clear sky at night for star gazing and satellite spotting. The large firepit was also fantastic. Finally make sure you give the Meringandan Pub a go for a meal. Arrive hungry because they are great.

Exclusive campsite, perfect site!

Our stay at the Old Peppertree was fantastic. An exclusive, beautiful site on a large, fiat grassed area, with views as far as the eye can see. A gorgeous fire pit to enjoy warmth under the stars. Regina offered great communication prior to our stay, with easy to follow directions to her property. Regina and Karl were very easy going and welcoming. We will definitely be back. Thank you.

Bush Camp at Coobindah

Peaceful, private and picturesque

We spent 3 nights at Regina And Karl’s land and had a thoroughly enjoyable stay. The camping area was very private and nicely presented with a large fire pit and stools. There was only 2 of us in our van but the site would also suit larger family / friends travelling who want a private spot to themselves. The land is located approx halfway between Toowoomba city on one side and Ravensbourne and Crows Nest National parks on the other so perfectly located for us to do some exploring of the region. We would highly recommend staying here and we look forward to returning in the future.

Peppertree at Coobindah is a beautiful spot away from the hustle and bustle. We enjoyed the peace and quiet of the property and the extra touches like a huge fire pit and wood delivered to us. Regina is a wonderful host and maintains the property perfectly.

Very peaceful

Only 1 group of campers at a time is awesome, creates a good camping environment. Owners were very nice and easy to communicate with
