    Historic rural property close to Wollombi. Tranquil surrounds for Australian Bush camping. Range of camp sites on the large property, suitable for Caravans and other camping set ups that are 4x4. Set up where you like. Open private areas and extensive tracks for walks or cycling. Walk and birdwatch. Greenloo composting toilet. FirePit.Sunset Flats Camping area is part of Wollombi Springs which is a 300 acre mix of open mowed grassed areas, bush and sandstone ridges and backs onto Yengo State Forest. It's totally private, peaceful and pristine. The site is mown grass areas amongst trees with capacity to comfortably accommodate 5 camping areas within walking distance of the central toilet amenity. Each site is approximately 100 metres or more apart and several are private behind a stand of trees. The site by the dam is in full sun all day and ideal for Winter camping. It is flood free and well drained. Travel time from Newcastle or Wahroonga ( start of th M1) is approx. 1.5 hrs Wildlife is plentiful all year round, and the place is a bird watchers delight! Photographers will love the variety of wildflowers throughout the year, and rock formations that change colour with the time of day, depending on what part of the property you are on. If you are looking to recharge the batteries, chill out from the hustle & bustle of life and just get quiet, then this is your place :-) Sunset Flats is the first of a number of camping sites we are creating, and is a wide grassed area with a very gentle slope, shade trees and a nearby fire pit. Great for tents or RV camping, with an easy walk to our brand new 'Loo with a View' composting toilet. Please note there may be one other group in the vicinity at times, but chances are you will have the entire place to yourself most of the time. Access roads to the property are gravel, a little rough in spots with a steep climb, initially, but suitable for 2wd in fine weather, and 4WD if wet. Mountain bikes are welcome and there are a number of trails already cut for use, with plans for a complete circuit on the drawing board. If you enjoy hiking, there are no shortage of tracks to wander along, or you may prefer to just sling a hammock and read a book and soak up the silence. Noisy late night party goers are not our ideal guests, as you will discover sound carries in the bush, and we really want our patrons to enjoy the pristine beauty of the property.

    Host Robert was very responsive and helpful. Robert met us on time and showed us where to go. Camping area was great. Very quiet, we had the place to ourselves. Amenities building was very clean and stocked with everything you need. There was some firewood nearby but we had some of our own as well. Plenty of fire pits to choose from. Even a little cart to help us move the wood from the pile to our campsite. Worst thing about my visit was........one night wasn't enough. I was only just starting to unwind and it was time to leave. Great location, great host, everything you need.

    Love the space and simple life
    Tent · With kids
    Loved the camp options at Sunset Flats, we set up camp behind the dam. Not far to the amazingly clean composting toilet. The area is so peaceful. Robert is so accomodating, meeting us at the meeting point and guiding us in. He also told us about the bush walk up to the ridge which was a fantastic meander this morning. Thanks Robert. We would defo recommend if you are looking for a lovely, private-ish camp ground that you can soak up the bush life. We’ll be back.
