Escape to the picturesque Shukuru Farmstay, nestled in the heart of Wellington Forest near the breathtaking Ferguson Valley. This hidden gem offers a unique and unforgettable experience, combining the tranquility of a 50-acre farm with the natural beauty of its surroundings. As you arrive at Shukuru Farmstay, you'll be captivated by the charm and serenity that envelops you. The property boasts a seasonal creek that gracefully winds its way through the land, creating a soothing soundscape that can be enjoyed during the cooler months. Fire pits are provided and can be lit pending seasonal fire bans and weather conditions. Please bring your own firewood onto the property. Immerse yourself in the great outdoors and explore the vast expanse of the farm, complete with a magnificent dam that beckons you to relax and unwind while endangered Red-Tailed Black Cockatoos fly overhead. Surrounded by a lush pine plantation, Shukuru Farmstay is a haven for nature enthusiasts. With its close proximity to Collie, Wellington Forest National Park, Mountain Biking Trails and Wellington Mill, adventure awaits just 15 minutes away. Discover the wonders of the enormous Wellington Dam, indulge in the region's renowned wineries or restaurants and embark on thrilling bike tracks and scenic walking trails. Every day is an opportunity to embrace the beauty of the land and create lasting memories. At Shukuru Farmstay, camping is a truly magical experience. Choose from 2 sites, Site 1 is situated further away from the dam compared to Site 2. Please note other hipcampers may be staying on the property at the same time, we do encourage a very generous distance between groups but you may see and hear other guests, and their dogs if any. - Toilets are not provided, the nearest dump point is 18 minutes away in Collie, or 25 minutes Dardanup through the stunning Ferguson Valley. Please do not dig 'toilet holes' on the property! - Dogs are welcome, and arrangements for dog-care can be made while you explore the nearby national parks and bike trails. Fees apply. - The river and dam are deep and unfenced. Constant supervision of children by their parents or guardians while on the property is mandatory to ensure safety around water. Fall asleep under a star-studded sky, serenaded by the gentle rustling of leaves and the symphony of nature. Wake up to the sweet aroma of apple orchards and the sight of grazing sheep, immersing yourself in the rhythm of farm life. Whether you seek solitude, adventure, or simply a chance to reconnect with nature, Shukuru Farmstay offers it all. It's time to escape the ordinary and embrace the extraordinary. There are a number of events during the year in the local area, some can impact your stay such as the car rally in mid-late October from Collie through parts of Wellington Forest, so some roads will be closed for the day. We can provide alternative access for some vehicles- please discuss prior to booking. For details on events, please view the following links: Collie: https://collie.town/Event-Cale... https://collierivervalley.com....

Book your stay today and let the wonders of Shukuru Farmstay awaken your spirit.Site 1 and Site 2 both have farm views and are positioned on the west side of the farm. Both sites are large, with Site 2 situated closer to our dam. While Shukuru Farm is sprawling, you may be able to hear or see other hip campers from a distance as they use and move around the usable areas of the property. As the weather continues to be warm, please be on the alert for snakes and wear closed shoes.

9 ft pop-up camper · With kids
Our recent visit with a group of friends was a great experience and we had a very enjoyable long weekend. From the beginning, Fiona's communication and information was excellent, and when we needed to make changes she was very accomdating and then due to our group size ensured we had the property all to ourselves. She also advised in advance the Dam may not have had water in it, but luckily it did and with a warm weekend the kids (and some adults!) spent many hours playing and relaxing in the Dam. To top if off, Fiona brought a massive home baked Apple Crumble over to our camp one evening that was enough to feed all of our large group. The location and setting is great, plenty of trees and massive numbers of Black cockatoos flying overs so a very peaceful, relaxing spot - highly recommend!
