    Nomadic camping
    Best for self-contained campers. There are no toilets, showers, or potable water at this Hipcamp.
    Enormous Hoop Pine trees shade our 'Tall Timbers' site, but still with easy drive-through parking and set up. The fire pit area is situated perfectly to enjoy the moon rising as it crests the hills. This site is suited to campers wanting to enjoy a bit of forest bathing and earth energy recharging. Yes...you will hear road traffic, but it is far enough away to not be invasive...but the only night lights you will see are the ones from our house and the glow of the moon and sparkling stars. Guests are required to be self-sufficient with their own toilet/shower facilities and must take all waste and rubbish with them on departure. The whole point of quiet, private camping is to enjoy what nature provides. Our farm is our home and part of our business. We're working hard to bring as much life to our farm as we can and that includes humans too. With lovely 'people free' views (apart from our farm house & sheds) and plenty of space our campsites are a convenient, easy-access option for a bit of r-n-r. Our large dam is close by, but is not designed for swimming or kayaking sorry. Private, but not remote, perfect when you need a break, but you don't have a lot of time to travel. There is easy access to State Forest tracks and roads for walking or mountain biking. The raised fire pit makes for comfortable camp fire cooking with the convenience of a large, solid log table within easy reach. With care, you can easily drive through the site and set yourself up without the need to unhitch the camper trailer, then when ready to leave, pack up and gently follow the curve of the mown grass and you are on your way. Our farm and paddocks are in the process of being restored, so we ask that you not ramble at will as this may damage recovering plant species or worsen erosion sites. 'The Pines' is a working farm and as such, we ask you to respect our space and that of our animals. We will try to not have livestock close by when you are with us, to avoid any interference ( by them or you!), but they do live here and we need to keep to their regular schedule. Everything we do here is to make things better. More water for native animals, more plants for habitat and cooling, so it's essential that when you come here, you bring that same mindset.Our 'Tall Timbers' site is shaded by enormous Hoop Pine trees, but still with easy drive-through parking and set up.

    We are still pinching ourselves that we found this perfect spot. Exactly what we were looking for when camping with our young kids. Genuinely wonderful hosts made the whole experience better. We cooked on the campfire, relaxed and watched the moon come up over the trees and explored the site with our kids. In the morning, the sunrise was just as spectacular We will be back!
