Experience Nature on Our 400-Acre Sheep Farm in WA’s Great Southern Region Escape to our expansive 400-acre sheep farm, just 5 km south of Mount Barker. Perfectly positioned along the highway yet tucked away in a serene setting, this property offers an ideal retreat for nature lovers and adventure seekers alike. Choose from a variety of stunning landscapes for your campsite: open, grassy paddocks where you can soak in the sun or shaded bush areas that invite you to unwind amidst the trees. The farm is ideally located for a perfect mix of hiking, winery visits, and beach days. You'll have easy access to the stunning Stirling Ranges and Porongurup National Park, along with renowned wine regions featuring numerous wineries to explore. And when you’re ready for some sun and surf, amazing beaches are just a short drive away, providing the ideal spot for relaxation and seaside adventures. With nearby attractions in Albany (54 km) and Denmark (43 km), you can explore the beauty of the Great Southern region while having a comfortable base to return to. Please note that we cannot provide facilities such as power, water, or toilets, ensuring a truly off-grid, authentic camping experience for those who want to connect with nature. Whether you prefer pitching a tent, parking your camper, or setting up a caravan, our farm offers a peaceful escape with wide open spaces and stunning views. Additionally, we have sheep on the property. While they are generally shy and tend to avoid interaction, they can get curious from time to time. They are well managed, but please be aware that we cannot take responsibility for any damage that may be caused by the sheep. This is part of the farm’s charm and adds to the rural experience. Please also note that the driveway is located directly off Albany Highway, in a slightly tricky spot. The gate is approximately 18 meters from the highway, so we recommend taking extra care when entering or exiting the property. This is the perfect spot for self-sufficient campers who value serenity and the chance to disconnect from modern amenities while enjoying the beauty of the Great Southern Region. In short: it's just grass in a beautiful spot with plenty of room to choose from. Join us for a memorable stay surrounded by nature, where the sheep roam freely and the stars shine bright."Southern Views" is a peaceful, off-grid campsite located 5km south of Mount Barker in the Great Southern Region, offering easy access for both 2WD vehicles and caravans. The site is surrounded by expansive countryside views and rolling hills, providing a perfect escape into nature. Campers must be self-sufficient and self- contained, bringing their own water, power, and supplies, as the site has no amenities. Dogs are welcome at the campsite, as long as they are well-behaved and do not cause any harm or disturbance to the surrounding livestock. With its spacious layout, privacy, and beautiful night skies for stargazing, this site is ideal for campers looking for a serene getaway close to nature, while still being within reach of Mount Barker for any necessary supplies.

Best field ever!

16 ft pop-up camper · With kids

We loved camping at Normies! It's well located for exploring the area and the night skies and sunsets were amazing. It was so lovely to be secluded and self sufficient. Stef was flexible and great to communicate with too.

Peaceful

Tent · With pets

Peaceful stay. Not to far from Mount Barker. The sheep keep to themselves a lot but you could hear them of a night.

Perfect location to explore Mount Barker, Porongurup and Stirling Range National Park, and only 30min drive down to Albany. Great outlook from camp, with no one else in sight.
