The great thing about this camp is that there are only two sites to choose from. Very relaxing next to the river and watching stars, satellites and shooting stars. Paul is a terrific host and leaves you to enjoy your stay. Thanks for opening up your property Paul.

Beautiful spot by the fast flowing Barrington River, greeted by Paul on the road and shown the 2 options. After a brief chat about the local area we were left to enjoy the huge variety of Birdlife and the refreshing (cold) river for a dip. Will return!

Really enjoyed our short stay here. Paul was a great host, friendly and welcoming. Directions were easy to follow. Peaceful stay by the river. Loved that you are spread out from other campers and you can enjoy your own space.

This spot is so quiet, private and river access right outside your door. Paul was very welcoming and helpful. Our puppies loved this spot to run and hang

We spent two nights here and wished we could stay for longer. Eliza and Paul are great hosts, very welcoming and share their local knowledge. Eliza greeted us and gave us the option of camps. We were lucky enough to have the camp to ourselves, however even if all three camps were booked, there is still plenty of room between us. Paul checked in on the second afternoon to say hello and make sure we were good. Lovely people. We've camped at quite a lot of hipcamps, but this one quickly became our fav. Amazing views any way you looked. Running water along the Barrington River, both the dogs and us enjoyed frequent refreshing dips. Afternoon shade to enjoy a quiet drink along the riverbank. Barrington has a fuel station for ice just 3 minutes from camp, Gloucester had Woolworths and BWS just a 12 min drive away. Reception was minimal, but you could get it at different spots and full reception was just a 4 minute drive away. We can't wait to come back, thank you Paul and Eliza for sharing your piece of paradise.
