Seeking your own private escape to the country? You're welcome to experience our beautiful farmstay 'Coobindah', and enjoy your own EXCLUSIVE campsite, without the crowds! Choose from ONLY TWO (**Currently only one) campsites on eighty plus acres rural property 'Coobindah'. All campsites are well separated and not visible from each other. To enhance privacy, we take only one booking / group per campsite, therefore you're likely to have the property to yourselves. You'll enjoy peace, nature, amazing views, stunning sunsets, big starry skies, misty valley mornings amidst lovely countryside, farmland and the aussie bush. Relax under the shade of the trees, warm yourself by the campfire, or go walking or mountain biking on our farm. Each campsite has its own rock firepit, and firewood is available (quality split ironbark firewood available in 'extras'). Kangaroos, wallabies and wildlife are often seen on the property, and there's currently no livestock in the paddocks. Pet friendly, family friendly, a quiet retreat for couples / singles, or group bookings available. Old Peppertree campsite is an elevated campsite that has all weather access and is suitable for 2wd and 4wd vehicles, vans, caravans, motorhomes, camper trailers and tents. **Update 30/9/23 - Due to very dry conditions currrently, Bush Camp isn't in use** Bush Camp campsite is further down the back of the property, nearer the bush, down a hill, and is suitable for 4wd / SUV and off-road / higher clearance vehicles, vans, caravans and motorhomes, camper trailers and tents. However access is fairly easy and this is only a recommendation. Both Old Peppertree and Bush Camp campsites are spacious and there's plenty of room to setup and park. 'Coobindah' is just under 2 hours from Brisbane and is located on the Great Dividing Range. It boasts crisp mountain air and glorious views from the hills. 'Coobindah' is a great base from which to explore the Darling Downs. Cooby Dam is just 3 minutes down the road for fishing, kayaking, bush walking, picnic area and playground. The renowned Meringandan Pub is only 5 minutes away to satisfy your appetite. Picturesque Highfields village is only an 8 minute drive for town conveniences, coffee shops, gift shops, cafes, restaurants, the Chocolate Cottage, the Tavern, the new Monty Brewery (pet friendly), and Highfields Falls. We're only 10 minutes to the local winery Rosalie House, the New England Highway, and 11 minutes to the popular Cabarlah markets. The 'Garden City' of Toowoomba is just a 20 minute drive, and has much to offer, including the very popular Carnival of Flowers, held in September each year. The Oakey Army Air Museum is only 20 minutes away. Ravensbourne National Park, Crows Nest Falls, Bunnyconnellen Olive Grove and Events, and the fabulous eateries and shops of Crows Nest are only a half hour drive. Lake Cressbrook and Lake Perseverance are also nearby for water activities and within easy driving distances of 3/4 and 1 hour. We hope you can visit and enjoy 'Coobindah' for yourselves!

      Good spot to base yourself to explore Toowoomba and the surrounding areas. Private & quiet space, with the only visitors the occasional kangaroo. Nice spot to unwind, relax & enjoy the sunsets.

      We enjoyed yet another stay at Old Peppertree. Our hosts Regina and Carl were very accommodating and supplied our stock of wood without any problem. The area was clean and tidy and the fire pit already to go.

      What a lovely spot!
      What a lovely quiet spot! It was so easy to get to and set up and felt very private. We would definitely return. Our host was welcoming and made us feel very comfortable.

      Great camp to explore Twba region
      Nice camping spot on a private property. Very tidy, clean and as advertised. Good communication with the owners. Firewood pre-purchased and ready at the stone firepit. Very private a short distance from the owners house and shed. A little slope but we managed to get 2 x 19’ caravans in there on levelling pads no problems. Great views of sunrise and sunset. Also a mowed path around the property for a light stroll or kids bike ride. Directions perfect. Good proximity to Highfields which has plenty of services and shops available. About 30mins to Toowoomba city centre. Would recommend for self contained off grid camping set ups.
