    With its large, secluded Bush Campsites, 'Chapman Valley' is still Sydney's best-kept secret! Picture this. Your weekend escape is relaxed from the very start - the car trip along the scenic winding Putty Road is slow and leisurely as you know you can arrive at any time for the self serve check-in. After signing in, you meander through this Beef Cattle farm, heading to your own designated camping area. A private corner of the property all to yourselves! After setting up camp, and showing off your awesome (of course) campfire lighting skills, you sink back in your camp-chair and listen to ...the bush. And you see ...the bush. Not a single other camper in site. Oh, except the ones you invited with you of course! There they are. The kids running enthusiastically across the open paddock chasing after their footy, with Buster, the family dog happily nipping at their heels. "They'll sleep well tonight!" you think to yourself happily, as you sink further into your camp-chair and take a long drink on that ice cold beer. 1hr drive from the nearest town (Singleton), "Chapman Valley" is the perfect oasis for those looking to escape the hustle and bustle. There are no nearby shops so be sure to bring everything with you. The property offers over 100kms of bush tracks ideal for walking, push-bike riding or 4WDing. On site-horse riding is available, offering rides ranging from 1hr family rides to full day experienced rides. Check out our website for a full list of offerings. The Communal camping area is within walking distance of our amenities block, which offers flushing porcelain toilets and a hot shower. Bush campsites are fully self-sufficient, BYO (bring your own) water and toileting system. All campers are required to take their rubbish home with them as there are no bins on site. Sites available for all vehicle types, from buses and large caravans to fully kitted out off-road vehicles.

    Private Bush Campsite - 4WD access
    Review for Hipcamp: This campsite was exactly what I was looking for—peaceful, secluded, and so relaxing. The directions were clear, making it easy to find, and the pre-paid firewood was a super convenient touch. Perfect spot to unwind and enjoy nature. I’ll definitely be back!

    Beautiful campsite and surroundings! Clear and easy instructions provided by the host for directions to my campsite prior to arrival. The sites couldn’t be more secluded and loved the amount of wildlife I saw during my stay. 10/10

    Private Bush Campsite - 2WD access
    Had a great weekend trip away with the family. The private sites were really private, you could see the occasional car drive past a couple hundred meters away, but other than that, didn’t see or hear other campers! We had a 4 year old who could wander around safely and 2 dogs that had a blast. Kangaroos were moving through the site each day, and cows wandered up for a look at one point too, blowing our kids mind haha. There are no toilets or showers at each site, but you can drive back to the little shop at the entrance if you want a shower or a toilet, it’s not so far and easy to get to. They also sell basic camp consumables as well, super handy if you forgot the tomato sauce like we did. They also didn’t ramp up prices a million percent like most places do for those things. Campfire pit was ready to go and you can buy wood at the front office if you forget to bring any. Overall, the fam had a really good time away, thanks guys!

    Excellent place to stay with plenty to see. Booked the private 2wd camp, was amazing to sit around the fire and relax. Kids had a ride on the horses and staff were very helpful. Look forward to returning soon!

    I loved my stay and will definitely be back! Clear instructions from the host, very reasonable rules, well kept camp ground, completely private and secluded. It felt like there was no one else for miles and miles. The kids loved the animals.
