Freedom Farmstay - simple, back to nature camping for FULLY self-contained travellers. CHILDREN are always FREE... We consider children to be 17 and under, if booking with teens, please list them in the 'children' section of the booking form. Quiet location on acreage in rural Baldivis (within the Perth metro area). We love our little tranquil piece of paradise... our little freedom farm, with it's beautiful natural spaces and menagerie of animals, yet close to lots of local amenities in Baldivis / Rockingham. We're just a 15min drive to the beach and 30mins to Perth city or Mandurah. We can only accommodate a small number of campers, or groups of campers, at any given time.. so you have space, solitude and security for your family/group. You MUST be fully self contained WITH your OWN TOILET. There is NO power available. Clear bore water for small tank fills can be arranged during your stay. NOTE: we do NOT have mains water and constant tap access is not available. Water refills need to be requested and you may need to wait up to a day. Sites are in open paddocks with some limited shade available. Dogs are allowed ONLY if kept on lead at all times. Sites 1 & 2: Suitable for small/med vans, motorhomes, camper trailers and MINI-buses. Could fit 3 families if you're with a group. Private site for your family/group only. Site 3 (Families WITH children): Large area that can take all size vehicles including big rigs and full size buses. Could easily accommodate a dozen or so families if you have a big group. This is a share site, so you may be sharing with other families (max 12 vans across 9 spots). If you wish to book for a large group, book as early as possible. Huge access gap into paddock, approx 15mtrs wide. NOTE: If you are NOT travelling WITH CHILDREN please do NOT book this area!! Site 4: For any sized vehicles. Suitable for up to 6 vans if camping with a group. This is a share site, so you may be sharing with others (max 6 vans across 4 spots) If you wish to book for a group, book as early as possible. Access gap approx 10mtrs wide. Campfires are allowed during October but only in contained fire pits. Same day bookings are available. Important NOTE: This is a WORKING hobby farm. There are tyres and poles, sand piles, fencing projects underway, etc etc. There are also many free roaming animals - our friendly farm dog, the chooks, sheep and alpaca.. along with, occasionally, the usually contained horses who sometimes figure out a way to sneak out for a wander! If you are looking for manicured, super flat areas or have a fear of animals - this is NOT the place for you. There are also a HUGE number of factors that can affect your stay that I have ZERO control over... The seasons change a lot of things throughout the course of the year: we have snakes (like ALL Aussie bush places) for most of the year; an assortment of insects, according to their seasons; varying growth stages of grasses - long, short, brown, green and sometimes grass seeds/prickles.. along with some crazy weather on occasion (high winds, high temps, storms) - NONE of which I have any control over.. so if you are a moaning myrtle and any of those things are likely to bother you, please don't come to our property... oh, and roosters - we have them too! If you accept that you are staying on a working hobby farm and that I have no control over nature - then welcome, there is much beauty here for those who have the eyes to see - and as a base to explore the Perth area, we have a pretty convenient spot :)

Family Paddock, shared site

Great spot right near the aqua park. Lots of space and the kids loved playing with all the friendly animals.

The camp is fine. It's what you pay for. Open paddock with plenty of room. A few trees with shade. The grass is long in some parts, lots of animal droppings that really need to be removed if they want to make money off people renting the space.

Adults Paddock - shared site

It was very convenient to Rockingham. We loved watching the chickens and sheep. It was a shame we couldn't contact Debbie to stay longer as Hipcamp was expensive!

The Caretaker's Coop: EXCLUSIVE USE

We stayed in the private 'Caretakers Coop' which had ample space, beautiful shady trees, and chickens, sheep and ducks that would visit every afternoon. Very quiet and private at the back of the property. Highly recommend, would definitely stay again. Thank you so much 😊🙏🏻

Family Paddock, shared site

Sheep with constant urine dripping is very intimidating and will not hesitate to push over children, host even confirmed she was already aware and that sheep intimidates her daughter too, but host didn’t do anything about it. Host was very hard to contact (we tried contact via Hipcamp, text message and phone call), we had to keep our kids inside the caravan most of the time. Animals are also not fenced in. Host also changed our booking at the last minute (ie. check in time was 2pm, we received message at 3pm before we arrived at 4pm to notify us the spot we booked was not available). Do not recommend.

Disappointed 😞

The Wattle Field: EXCLUSIVE USE

Poor communication, contacted early in the week prior to see if we could arrive earlier than 2pm on the Saturday. We were told she was unsure, we told her we would contact her on Friday night. We did no reply, we tried several times on Saturday morning, no reply. No on around at 2pm to tell us where to set up, after being told by another camper to go through and set up where we liked, as they had the day prior. We did and set up, we then got a text giving us instructions. We were in the wrong spot, but hey not moving now. $48 is over the top, stayed at better places for $30 with lovely people to greet on arrival and offer assistance if needed. Disappointed and won't go back.
