At Bluegums Farm, 2km outside of Bordertown, you'll be surrounded by animals with supervised interaction with clydesdale horses, camels, sheep, cows and occasionally puppies! At certain times of the year the clydesdales will be in harness putting on a draught display. Campers are set up in a large open area, with both grassy and sandy options, suitable for tents and caravans/campers, with some areas more off-road and private than others. Upon arrival, you are welcome to choose your spot. As well as plenty to do on and around the property, there is a great bike track from the farm into Bordertown town, and we are also just walking distance from the town pool. We have no facilities here so you need to be self-sufficient with your own toilet. We do however provide firewood for the campfire. You are also welcome to bring your pet along, so long as they're kept under control and don't disturb our animals.At Bluegums Farm, 2km outside of Bordertown, you'll be surrounded by animals with supervised interaction with clydesdale horses, camels, baby goats, sheep, cows and occasionally puppies!

Great stay
Nice clean and flat site. Close enough to town but far enough to feel secluded. Great to see the camels and horses around really feels like you’re in the wide and amazing night sky with little light pollution.

Quiet, private and great for kids!
We loved Linda's Hipcamp! Complete privacy - whole place to ourselves. It was a quiet, off-grid place to stop on the way over the border. What we hadn't expected was activities! Linda went above and beyond!! Feeding the camels with the kids in the afternoon and little horse rides around the campsite the next morning. 100% recommend!! Thanks for having us

We had a lovely stay at Bluegums Farm. We visited with the camels and Clydesdales - highly recommend the camel feeding activity! Linda is a friendly and hospitable host. The property is a peaceful immersive farm experience.

Our stay with Linda was the perfect half way stop between Melbourne and Adelaide. Linda guided us to our spot on her property making sure our caravan could fit and we were comfortable with driving in certain areas. We were able to choose our spot to set up and got to feed the camels later that afternoon. Linda’s property is only 2.5 kms outside of town so we could go for a drive or walk (there’s a great walking/biking trail that takes you right into town). Linda was super friendly and helpful.
