Yarrawin is 680 acre cattle farm and hardwood timber plantation in the heart of the Nambucca Valley, offering scenic, secluded , private campsites with their own swimming hole and a river gravel beach on 3km of beautiful double river frontage. Camping options include river side camps, the Shack and riverside camp and a large secluded valley. Each campsite is separate from the others, giving guests privacy and exclusive use of the swimming hole (except Chinamans Valley) at their site. All riverside sites offer a natural gravel beach entry into the water. There are no amenities here, campers will need to be self contained and leave no trace. Every site has a fire pit which must be used for campfires. If you want to use your own it must be off the ground. Free firewood and fire pit set up for the first night, IF YOU STAY TWO NIGHTS OR MORE. Firewood $20/ night after that (CASH ONLY PLEASE), except when camping at Chinamans Valley where you collect your own free firewood for each night. Beautiful drinking rain water is available in a 20lt Jerry can if required on arrival. Bird lovers can enjoy watching the various bird varieties, as well as ducks. Animals include wallabies, goannas, deer and fish as well as cattle and stock horses. Fishing is okay but it is STRICTLY catch and release ONLY. There are many places to go bushwalking, either following the river or heading up the valleys or hiking up the hills through the trees. The property is just 10kms from the convenience of Bowraville, a historic township with a supermarket, folk museum, a war museum, a historic theatre, and other historic buildings. Nambucca Heads and the beautiful surrounding beaches are just 27kms east and Coffs Harbour 80kms away. Please note this is a working farm, so there will be cattle and stock horses on the property that may approach your campsite.

THE Swimming Hole
Far out!
Bloody hell. This property is the nicest I’ve stepped foot on in all of Australia. Kilometres of winding creek, secluded private campsites with awesome waterholes. Absolutely amazing. Bobbie and Ian are really good humans. We stayed for 3 days with our kids and puppy and had the whole place to ourselves. First day we mapped out a treasure hunt for the kids, told Bobbie and Ian about it, next day they set out a full tilt orienteering map with coordinates and give us their old skool compass to find some treasure of their own. They didn’t ask, they just did it. That’s next level hosting without even mentioning that Ian actually builds your fire starter for you so all you have to do is light it up when you arrive. Can’t wait to get back and try out another spot. Just not sure which one so might have to come back a few times. Thanks again Bobbie and Ian, your piece of country is what dreams are made of.

Beautiful spot, flat thick grass, pre prepared firepit with wood already stacked and set to light! Really friendly hosts that greeted us with a box of home made brownies to welcome us. Site is kept really well maintained, couldn’t recommend more and definitely will go back.

THE Swimming Hole
Ian and Robyn’s farm Yarrawin is the perfect spot to spend the week/weekend relaxing, the farm is so peaceful, surrounded by beautiful farm land, and swimming holes shared with turtles and fish. The cows are inquisitive and often wandered down do the creek for a drink. There is no phone reception which makes it even more enjoyable. A special mention to Robyn’s brownies on arrival, they are to die for, and Ian’s knowledge and hospitality making sure we never ran out of firewood! This will be our new holiday destination. Thanks for having us, see you next time!

Top Flat Swimming Hole
Fabulous spot! The water was crystal clear, the camp site was flat, very private, well maintained and very easily accessible. Firewood was supplied for the one night we were there and a fire was set up ready to light when we got there. Ian and Bobby were so warm and welcoming and Bobby’s brownie were AMAZING! We only stayed one night but will definitely be back. Highly recommend!
