Planning a group getaway? Take advantage of our group booking options and have the entire camp to yourselves, accommodating up to 8-10 vehicles for an exclusive retreat. Get in touch with us to find out more about these options. We are pet-friendly, however, please note that all animals must be supervised and kept on a lead at all times. As a working farm, we kindly ask that you refrain from allowing your animals to interact with ours for everyone's safety and peace of mind. Only 2.5km from the centre of the main street, use us as a base to explore Peterborough and surrounds. Escape the ordinary and create lasting memories at Maverick's Rest as you travel through our region! PS: We have a number of very very special and fun trees in the stand of old trees around the camp sites. You may come across them during your stay! More details are sent through to you after booking. PPS: Maverick was the name of our favourite stud male alpaca, and the dad to many of our babies. He was on TV, in weddings and the star of many a photo shoots. A true character, you would have loved him - just like we hope you love this campsite.
