Here, you'll find 25 acres with water frontage, overlooking the Belfast Lough. The Block is just 300 metres off the highway and has all-weather road access, so it's ideal for an overnight pit stop or to park up for a few days and enjoy the region. From camp, you'll have views of Port fairy and Tower hill. There is a golf course and airstrip on the opposite side of the Belfast Lough. And it's just two minutes drive from Port Fairy, and 15 minutes from Warrnambool. Electricity is available if needed, and we do have bore water (unsuitable for drinking). The Belfast Lough is fed by the Moyne River, which passes through Port Fairy. It's a great spot for recreational fishing, with black bream, sea mullet, estuary perch, mulloway, whiting, barracouta, snapper and Australian salmon. The estuarine salt marshes provide important feeding areas for many migratory bird species and the endangered Orange-bellied parrot - so it's also a great spot for bird watchers!The area offered for camping enjoys water frontage, overlooking the vast Belfast Lough. There are options for kayaking, windsurfing, fishing and there's a golf course close by. You'll have plenty of space to spread out, it's a large open grass area that is level. Good access for all types of set ups. There is electricity and bore water available (not suitable for drinking though). Just two minutes from Port Fairy. Tower Hill, Koroit and Warrnambool are all within a short drive, as is the Port Fairy rail trail. Please note: We do not offer facilities here, so you'll need to be self-contained, with your own camp toilet, and please take all waste with you when you leave. Pets welcome.

Belfast Lough offers a tranquil camping experience just a stone's throw from Port Fairy. Neil, the host, is consistently praised for his welcoming nature and local tips. The site itself is described as level and well-maintained, with plenty of space and stunning views of the lake and surrounding countryside. While it can be windy, the picturesque scenery and proximity to local attractions make it a popular choice for campers.

Unfortunately we were only at the site (which was a lovely piece of land) for all of an hour before the weather proved too much. However Neil went out of his way to get in contact, attempt to help, and even went out of his way to process a refund when he didn’t have to. All efforts were much appreciated and we have every intention of returning in future

Great hassle free camping

19 ft Class A

Belfast Louth was a great location. Site was very level and grassed, so great place to set up the van. We explored Tower Hill, Koroit and Port Fairy as all close by. Great views of the lake on the Moyne river, and country side around Port Fairy. We would recommend if looking for a great place to stay while in the Port Fairy area. We would use it as a base for that area in the future. Thanks Neil for allowing us the pleasure to stay there

Great location!

A great little spot if you’d like to be within a couple of minutes to Port Fairy! Neil was great to communicate with and very welcoming (even took us on a quick tour of the town)…super helpful! The block is easily accessed and very level! Thanks for having us!
