Serenity is nestled quietly amongst 42 acres of peppermint gum scrub sheltered by the ranges west of Tarlee. Here you will find spacious camping spots, room to explore or relax, peaceful starry nights, quiet country roads for walking or pushbike riding with spectacular views of the ranges and the valley as well as it being a peaceful sanctuary for kangaroos, kookaburras, possums, birds of all kinds and more native wildlife. Between the Clare and Barossa Valley's we are located centrally to both for easy access day trips exploring the fine wines, fabulous food, shopping, push bike trails and activities offered in the region. It's a perfect spot for families, children love to ride their push bikes down the hills and through the tracks and explore here, it's perfect for outdoor imagination and bundles of energy. Campers have made cubbies in the trees, tyre swings and set up hammocks for lazy afternoons or a swing. Pets are also very happy here and love to come camping. Bush camping at its best with firewood available to purchase on arrival, $25 for a large container and fire drums are provided as well as a clean long drop toilet for your convenience. No chainsaws here please or digging holes to dispose of waste or rubbish.

    What an amazing spot, private, peaceful and full of bird life, thank you also for the help of the battery and water supply when we were running short :)

    Alison made the whole process seamless - very private location with a good distance between sites. Each site has its own fire pit for use. Travelled with dogs although there were lots of grass seeds. A nice place to get away and escape
