Beautiful open views across rolling hills and paddocks. Sit by the dam and enjoy the views. Meet the goats, llama and chickens. Walk the farm paddocks with the goats. Mountain bike on country roads. Various sites to choose from. Only 45 mins from Canberra. 15mins from the quaint town of Bungendore.

Jacqui's campsite offers a unique blend of tranquility and adventure, perfect for nature lovers. Many campers have praised the welcoming atmosphere and the chance to interact with friendly farm animals, including llamas and goats. The amenities, such as a rustic bathroom and a well-equipped kitchen, add to the comfort of the stay, although some guests have noted that the shipping container accommodation is still a work in progress. The gravel road leading to the site can be challenging for low vehicles, but the stunning starlit skies and peaceful surroundings make it a worthy destination.

Perfect getaway
I really loved camping at Shepherds Rest! Jacquie is an amazing host and I would honestly come back to just chat with her. Loved meeting the llama and goats as well. Perfect place for a short getaway from Canberra and Sydney. Also got along with the other campers, still very spacious. For those who love photography, a great place to capture the Australian bush.

Quiet short stay
Jacqui was a lovely, friendly host. The amenities were great, especially the bathroom "hut" - so charming! We were able to enjoy a hot shower and shared a beautiful campfire in the common courtyard with others staying there night. The shipping container was just the basics of what we needed of a warm bed for the night and plenty of room for our 3 dogs. Thanks again Jacqui!
