Formally a horse spelling farm, "Prado Downs" is now home to Shiralee Clydesdale Stud.  Offering both camping and a choice of a fully self contained 2 bedroom cabin or a fully self contained Winnebago accommodation, there is something for everyone. While you're here, book a horse and carriage ride (extra charge), feed the horses and pat the foals.  We hope you enjoy the relaxing atmosphere and between March and September we ramp it up with activities of all sorts. Campsites can be on the slightly undulating, open lawn area, where there is bore water  available.  Or down by the dry creek under the gum trees. Construction is underway to provide tank water, and a Camp Kitchen. The flushing toilets and showers are up and running! While you're here, help feed the horses or pat the foals. Collect the eggs, or have a drink around the communal camp fire. Want quiet time - each site has its own smaller fire pit! 15 minutes drive to Rockhampton - Or n your way to Emu Park Beach, you can visit the Camel Farm, or the Koorana Crocodile Farm.Pick your location, mostly level areas available with mowed grassed areas. Some areas over looking the playground; some overlooking the dam.

Wonderful host.
Lynda was so easy going when we got delayed on our way. She did everything she could to make our late arrival easy and went above and beyond when our caravan broke down nearby. The campsite is lovely and it was very family friendly. I'd recommend a stay.

Amazing stay for animal lovers!
We absolutely loved our stay here. Upon arrival, we were greeted by a friendly older gentleman who walked us down to our campsite and then showed us around the farm. There are so many different animals to see including dogs, goats, cattle, ducks, curlews, kookaburras and of course the Clydesdales themselves (including the loveliest little foals!). The farmhouse and campsites are in the same huge open area, so to our surprise and delight the cattle and horses wandered past our campsite regularly throughout our stay - a particular highlight was waking up at 2:30am and realising the foals were sleeping (and snoring!) peacefully near us as their mums grazed. It was a truly surreal experience and one that I feel very fortunate to have had. Thank you Lynda - we will definitely be back!
