Great site
Alana and Steve were both very welcoming when we arrived. Steve gave us a good run down of the site which is very well serviced and even has free washing facilities. There are wild wallabies that get fed occasionally by Steve so we were able to get very close to them. Be cautious of the turn in to the drive from the dirt road. Its a hairpin bend up a steep hill.

We loved our stay.
The facilities (kitchen, bathrooms and laundry) are clean, well equipped and comfortable and the hosts friendly, and wonderfully helpful. The evening feeding of the animals was enjoyed by all. The land was comfortable for pitching your tent on and sleeping the night. The environment around is pretty. Thank you for a great stay. The only downside is the steep driveway, which may pose a problem for some.
