Bunya farm

29 ft travel trailer · With kids

We loved camping at Buny Farm. So quiet as Caitlin and Sam only allow one booking at a time. Although the cows are surprisingly noisy at night! It is flat and grassy but their is no shade! The creek offers a bit of shade and a great cool-off. Be sure to bring a gazebo in the hotter months. You need to be totally self sufficient. There is a dump point on the road before you turn into the showground and a water tap by the river. Caitlin and Sam did kindy offer us water and use of a freezer as we were staying 10days. Our hosts were communicative and checked in on us when a huge storm rolled in. We loved the seclusion and our own private access to the creek. Only 10 minutes or so from Bello. This was just the break we were after and we will definitely be back.

Great open space, plenty of space to spread out and not be disturbed by anyone else. Caitie is welcoming and very helpful. Great location close to beaches, cafes and restaurants.

I will definitely come back here, Caitie and her partner were amazing hosts and super friendly. The property is super private and quiet, with easy access to the creek. Only a few minutes out of Bellingen the location was awesome. Highly recommend :)

A nice place to relax and unwind

19 ft travel trailer

Camping on Caitie's farm was relaxing. We needed somewhere to stay over Christmas so we could visit family. Caitie's farm offered us a private, safe place to use as a base. We had the place to ourselves so we were able to play a little bit of music while relaxing by a camp fire without worrying about campers next to us. A walk in the creek was a great way to cool down on the very hot days but I was a bit worried about ticks as the access track is a bit overgrown. Nothing a whipper snipper couldn't fix unfortunately we didn't have one with us.
