PLEASE NOTE: Retreat is a working farm. For biosecurity reasons, we cannot host visitors who have returned from overseas within the last 10 days. Retreat is a historic sheep station and regenerative farm on Pinchgut Creek, in Wiradjuri Country, on the southwest slopes of NSW. Strategic grazing methods are fostering biodiversity (above and below ground). Creekside revegetation has brought the waterway back to life. Birdlife abounds. Take a walk along the creek, through the regenerating woodland. Pitch your tent under shady white cedar trees, beside the Retreat Shearer's Quarters. After sunset, listen for the mopoke owls, which sometimes call from the branches of ancient yellow box trees. Nights are dark here. Marvel at a sky full of stars. Occasionally, a rare Australasian bittern, nesting in the reed beds on Pinchgut Creek, will add its booming call to the night time frog chorus. Butcher birds often sing at sunrise. The towns of Cootamundra, Temora and Junee are less than half an hour away. Guests have access to two hot showers, a laundry, toilet, and drinking water (rainwater). There is access to electricity, but no rubbish facilities. We ask that you remove all of your own rubbish, as we don't have a council rubbish pickup service. Stay cozy in the evenings around the campfire. Campfires can be made in the cooler months, by permission, and only in the designated fire circle. Tents may only be set up under the old, shady white cedar trees on the western side of the long, corrugated iron dormitory building, with a view towards the creek. The campsite is 2WD accessible and there's plenty of room for motorhomes, campervans and camper trailers. The campsite is grassy and level, but the area can get boggy in wet weather. Please check in with us about the current conditions. ​​​ No pets please.PLEASE NOTE: For biosecurity reasons, we cannot host visitors who have arrived from overseas within the last 10 days.

Great to have water and warm shower, flush loo. But a bit 'rustic'. Needs attention. George a lovely, helpful host.

I loved camping here. We stopped over on our trip from Melbourne to Sydney. Such a beautiful spot and loved seeing the old shearers sheds.

Great stay! Beautiful location. George was a great host who provided us with information on the local attractions that were of interest to us. We loved his ethos to farming and caring for the land. It was great to have a hot shower and flush toilet for camping. Overall a very relaxing and calm place to be. We would definitely recommend a stay here!

Very peaceful, relaxing and private site with views across surrounding farmland and adjacent shearer's cabins and majestic trees. George was very friendly and accommodating to our needs.

Private secluded hot shower
A wonderful place to stay. Only one site, so I had the whole place to myself. Nice and protected by the shearing quarters and shaded by the cedar trees. Hot shower was amazing on a cold night before bed. Great fire pit. Easy access. I will definitely be back.
