Do you fancy camping on your own exclusive section of the Hunter River with no roads or traffic noise to spoil the serenity? You wont have to share your spot with other campers and you have direct access to the river.
Rosebrook River Camp gives you your own private retreat, far away from the crowds but only a few minutes from the beating heart of the Hunter Valley.
Our property is situated in the locality of Rosebrook, a fertile area steeped in a rich dairying history. We're only 10 minutes from Maitland and 25 minutes from the Vineyards, but the privacy of the camp site makes it feel like you're miles from anywhere. You've got direct access to the Hunter River with a sandy beach, great swimming holes and it's perfect for a peaceful kayak up or down stream, dependent on river levels at the time of your stay. Bring your own kayak or use ours for a small fee.
For those a bit more adventurous, we take you via road to our drop off point and you paddle downstream (a leisurely 3 hours) until you arrive at the beach near your campsite. There are heaps of places to stop and have some lunch and a swim on the way.
The site is a drive through level, grassy area and easily accessed by 2WD vehicle if you're not towing. For caravans and camper trailers, a 4WD is recommended but it's pretty easy going.
Pets are welcome, but MUST stay within the site paddock if not on a lead. Our neighbours have stock and it's important we are always respectful toward them.
A garbage bin and recycle bin is provided but you will need your own toilet. There is a designated area for a fire (when conditions permit) and we can supply firewood if required for a small fee.
We’ve kept things simple and natural because that’s the way we like it. It’s a true bush camp — plenty of space, plenty of privacy, and no fuss. We just ask that everyone who stays treats the place with respect and leaves it as they found it, so the next campers can enjoy it too.
Whether you’re here for a quiet weekend, a bit of fishing, or just to switch off from the world for a while, this is the place to do it.
So come on out, take a deep breath, and slow down for a few days. You’ll soon see why we love it here and why it’s hard to leave once you’ve settled in.

Hunter on Elmslie is hands down my favourite camping site so far!
From the moment I arrived, Alan and Sue made me feel so welcome!
Alan greeted me and pointed me in the right direction for the best spots. They’re genuinely lovely hosts and you can tell they really care about everyone having a great stay.
The campsite suits all kinds of campers — swags, tents, and caravans. I stayed first as a solo camper with my dog Billy, then came back with my family for another stay the same week!
I’ll definitely be bringing my caravan back again to test it out too.
It’s very caravan-friendly, with easy access, and also super dog-friendly, my boy loved it there!
The amenities are great, especially the big camp kitchen with everything you need — fridge, freezer, cooking gear, microwave, barbecue, and even a fire with an oven. The hot gas shower was amazing after swimming in the river, and the toilets were always clean and well looked after.
Such a great spot for families, couples, groups, or a quiet getaway.
Thanks so much Alan and Sue for such a great stay and for making us feel so welcome — we can’t wait to come back!

The best decision we could have made to stay for our time at the Hunter Valley.
We stayed down by the dam and had access to water and power. Beautiful grassy area and so quiet. Felt like there was no one else around.

I recommend campers being aware you should not leave your rubbish anywhere it is not fair to the next people in. No mobile access on site so plan and check opening of things you want to do before hand or when out and about. Great trip. Thanks

Thank you for your hospitality Lindsay and Pam!
We had the most lovely time :) Spacious property was enough to feel isolated or run into other campers should we choose. Everyone was respectful, “rules” were just common decency. The views and animals were amazing.
Thanks heaps !

Nice rustic farm stay with friendly and helpful hosts. Beautiful views, and plenty of space. Some road noise but didn’t affect sleep.
Just note the policy on fire pits which is clear in the details. Toilets were decent and clean for long drops. Shower was a bit inaccessible having to walk across a field and there being only one for all sites. But plan around that and you’ll be fine.

We had a wonderful stay at Janette’s land. She saved us a beautiful spot at the pond on her land, but it’s safe to say that any spot would have been just perfect. Her land is very spacious and you won’t even know other people are there if all “sites” are occupied. We were in luck to have a stunning sunset view with roos jumping on the horizon and enjoy the scenery with a glas of wine. Above that, Janette is a lovely host and her estate is just a short ride from the winery’s. Perfect if you’re in a self contained vehicle and visit the wineries. I would definitely visit Janette again and highly recommend camping at her land.

Gorgeous views from the campsite and great open space. One of my favourite winerys in the Hunter, Ana is so welcoming and its a beautiful intimate space. Be organised and bring your water as the running water taps/toilets and showers are a little walk away.
We will be back Ana :)

Was a nice spot for camping on the property. Only a few others there so didn’t feel crowded at all.

Ana is the absolute best host and her land is just stunning. We got to camp right in the middle of the gorgeous vineyard surrounded by rolling hills and breathtaking views. Ana has some of the best wines we’ve had in the Hunter that you can enjoy tasting in an intimate setting where you feel like part of the family. We’ve been many times before and would absolutely go again! ❤️

Overview
About
Belford National Park, a haven for nature enthusiasts and adventure seekers alike, offers a plethora of activities to immerse oneself in the great outdoors. From scenic walks that reveal the park's diverse flora and fauna to picnicking amid serene landscapes, every visit promises a new discovery. Although camping is not mentioned, the park's 294ha of unspoiled terrain are a playground for day-trippers looking to escape the bustle of city life.
When to go
The best time to visit Belford National Park is during the milder seasons of spring and autumn, when the weather is pleasant for outdoor activities. Summer can be quite warm, making it less ideal for strenuous hikes. Winter, while cooler, offers a unique perspective of the park's beauty, though some areas may be less accessible.
Know before you go
- Check the latest park alerts and weather conditions before planning your visit.
- Ensure you have a valid park pass and are aware of any fees or regulations.
- Wear appropriate clothing and footwear for rugged outdoor activities.
- Be mindful of park wildlife and maintain a safe distance at all times.
- Remember to carry sufficient water, especially during warmer months.
