Then property is set 600 metres back from a quiet rural road, accessed via a gravel driveway. It is nestled at the foot of Mount Knowles, and includes over 300 acres of bushland in addition to approx 30 acres of formal gardens and mown paddocks, one of which has a pretty dam. All areas have expansive rural views. We offer a basic bush site for self-contained campers, a bell tent overlooking the dam and a fully-contained caravan. At Bushman's Camp we welcome self-contained campers who bring their own camping toilet/shower, and drinking water. You must have your own amenities. Campsites are accessible for 2WDs and we welcoming camping vehicles. You may need to level your vehicle for a comfortable night’s sleep. There are a few options for camping. The land is undulating with flat spots, with open grassy areas peppered with gum trees. Other parts are more heavily wooded with gums and natives. Our Bell Tent overlooks the dam, where you can sit in bed and look out over the water as the sun shimmers and reflects off the surface. Listen to the birdlife surrounding the water. Adjacent the dam is a covered dining area with BBQ for your use. There is non potable water available but campers need to bring all the usual gear and supplies, including drinking water. There is access to a toilet, a 2 minute walk away (no shower). You will need to bring your own mattress, bed linen and towels. Our caravan comes complete with water, electricity, toilet, double and single beds, dining area and kitchen. The caravan can sleep 4 guests. Next to the caravan there is room for a further tent, van, trailer or motorhome if desired. Please add extra guests when booking. Outside the caravan, there is a beautiful sandstone ringed fire pit, BBQ, covered picnic tables, chairs, lighting and some firewood available. You will need to bring your own bed linen and towels. Campfires are permitted at all our listings when not in fireban season so bring your marshmallows! There is lovely views of the valleys and mountains beyond, and you’ll really enjoy the sunsets. No pets please.

Weekender Caravan

This was our very first time experiencing staying in a caravan and we absolutely loved it. Photos below does not do justice of the view we had when the sun was setting, it was just beautiful! The host Janette was lovely and very welcoming, was always there to help out whenever we needed :) Yes I recommend this place and we will definitely come back whenever we come camping in Mudgee again! :) Thank you Janette

Weekender Caravan

The caravan stay in Mudgee, hosted by Janette, was a delightful experience. It provided a cozy and welcoming atmosphere that made our group of five feel right at home. The space was well-maintained, thoughtfully designed, and equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. We had our best night out there, enjoying the serene surroundings and creating unforgettable memories. The ambiance was perfect for a getaway with friends, offering a blend of relaxation and fun. I would highly recommend Janette’s caravan to anyone looking to spend quality time with friends in a peaceful yet vibrant setting. It’s an experience not to miss!

Bell Tent at the Dam

Great no fuss place that's very close to Mudgee! Bell tent was awesome and kept us dry during a thunderstorm in the night. Janette is a lovely and thoughtful host. Would stay again, great value for money!
