Enjoy the peaceful surroundings of Harry's Rockleigh Bush Camp. The free-range sites are on lovely flat camping areas amongst native trees, overlooking adjacent fields. Enjoy bird watching or walking part of the Lavender Trail which passes near camp. Relax at the communal campfire (depending on fire regulations). The camping grounds offer a generous amount of space, and great sunrises. We have available fire pits, bush toilet, and a camp kitchen with gas BBQ. BYO firewood, toilet paper, water and dishwashing liquid. Pease take your rubbish with you when you leave thanks. Pets welcome on leash. PLEASE NOTE: Due to extended drought conditions, we are currently unable to supply water. Therefore we can now only accommodate self contained campers. Children under 2 are free.

The property is around an hour drive from Adelaide, and Murray Bridge is only 20 km away. Please note: We ask that you treat all of nature with respect. For example the use of drones, climbing or breaking trees is not allowed. Adults are responsible for their children at all times.Enjoy the peaceful surroundings of Harry's Rockleigh Bush Camp.

Overall great but minor negatives

16 ft pop-up camper

Overall this was a great camp site. It has a bush toilet and gas shower. It also has a great camp kitchen to be shared. We loved the views of the plains and it was a treat to see the horses. Unfortunately having an extremely dry season, the camp was extremely dusty with no grass. We were there on extremely windy and hot days as well which made the dust not very pleasant but that has nothing to do with the hosts or the camp itself. Also the sites are closer to each other than we expected so if you want to be by yourself, be prepared to be near other people.

The grounds were amazing. The best set up we have experianced. Toilets, showers and land. Just what we need. Waking up to the sheep and Horses was a perfect topper.
