    We are a 5 min drive to the historic township of Bungendore where you can find plenty of shopping and cafes. It's just a 25 min drive to Queanbeyan and a 30 min drive to Canberra CBD. We are about 1.5 hours from Batemans Bay and the NSW south coast. The night sky here is mesmerising. The milky way core is visible from January through to November and is an astrophotographer's dream. Bring a camera!Our property is set up on a hill overlooking the valley towards Lake George. The campsites have flat grassy areas with rows of pine trees around two sides of the camping area.  This campsite suits self-contained campers who bring their own camping toilet/shower, and drinking water supply. Your dog is welcome (on leash). It's a a short walk uphill where you can see and photograph the amazing sunsets over lake George and Smiths Gap. In the mornings you can see the fog blanketing the lower parts of the valley as the sun rises. The night sky here is mesmerising.

    Site itself was great, with beautiful views back towards the farm, sheep and cows grazing. We enjoyed looking at the stars with our children. The site is close to a major road and as we were camping in a tent with our children the noise from the road kept them awake during the night.

    Was a lovely area to spend the night. The hosts were welcoming and we enjoyed a lovely evening with our family under the stars around a warm camp fire. Would stay again! Thank you

    Great Flat site Easy to access
    25 ft pop-up camper
    This is a lovely flat site with a fantastic stone fire pit. It has easy access and the views from the top of the hill are spectacular (well worth the walk) Super close to Bungendore, we had a delicious breakfast and great coffee at Cafe Woodworks. It is worth noting that this site backs directly onto the Kings Highway, and whilst you can’t see the highway due to mature trees there is a fair amount of traffic noise.

    Beautiful, farm stay
    17 ft pop-up camper · With kids
    We had our first EVER trip in our new hybrid caravan. The land was beautiful, easy to get to and easy to setuo camp on. Our kids loved seeing the animals and running around next to the lavender bushes. Location is fantastic, very close to the Bungendore village. The hosts were lovely and showd us where to park up and what to see on their farm. I would stay here again💓💙
