    Downhill Run Camping is located due west of Robertstown at the peak of the hills, a beautiful spot for caravans, campers, tents and swags. Spanning 50 acres the campsite offers breath taking views of the entire valley and is located directly on the lavender walking trail. There is a shared basic long drop toilet located near the south site but feel free to bring self contained units or find a nice tree! The campsites are located at the top of the hills in a pasture paddock so please make sure your dogs are on leashes at all times. The 2 sites are separated by a fair distance so there is plenty of room to enjoy for everyone even with large groups. A perfect spot to pitch a tent and admire the beautiful starry nights on the secluded hilltop The Clare and Barossa Valleys are only a short 45 minute drive away if you’re interested in a day out at the wineries. Or the lovely historic town of Burra is a 30 minute drive. The campsite is also conveniently located on the lavender trail which provides great scenery walks or cycles taking in the amazing view. There is a great Pub located in Robertstown which has cold beer and meals on Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights if you are looking to get out of cooking for the night. The post office is also a great spot to duck in for a coffee and a chat to the locals. Whether it’s the breathtaking sunrise, the stargazing, the walking trails or bumping into a friendly kangaroo or 2 this campsite will not disappoint. Important information to know before booking: - All campers must check in before 5pm. - You will be situated on a hill so please no driving or walking past the allocated safety signs. Therefore it may not be suitable for young children and caution must be taken at all times - Pets are allowed as long as they are on a leash at all times - No chainsaws allowed, firewood available to purchase on arrival - Fires are only permitted during the appropriate seasons - No dumping of rubbish or toilet waste, there is a dump point located at Robertstown - No motorbikes or rally driving - Can get windy on top on the hill on certain occasions - Strictly NO caravan or trailer access via Hills road, we will send an alternate route via point pass or Ngapala road

    What a wonderful experience to be one of the first to camp on Toby's land. Spectacular views overlooking Robertstown in the distance. Great host communication and a pleasant visit on arrival to check all ok. Long drop composting toilet is first class, with alot of thought put into its construction. Would recommend 4WD/SUV/ute/van for access however doable in a 2WD car if you take it easy on the gravel roads. Would highly recommend, and not all that far from Adelaide. This camp will only get better as Toby creates his vision for the experience.
