Hi, an update: please note that due to roadworks in Mullumbimby, the Council is diverting southbound traffic out of that town along Myocum Rd, thus there will be increased traffic at commute times. Your campsite is on a grassy knoll of Myocum Farm with sweeping views of farmland and the Byron lighthouse in the distance. You will be the sole visitors and thus have all the space and amenities to yourself. Your onsite amenities include: a firepit with benches and table, bbq plates, free kindling, firewood available to buy, a hot private outdoor shower, your own flushing toilet, a tap and handsoap, a bucket and hose, bins for recycling and rubbish, a swing, and a small cubbyhut with board games and a bocce and cricket set. Please note our rates are very competitive and cover 3 visitors in our base rate. During your stay you can just kick back and relax overlooking the farm which produces beef cattle and fingerlimes, but with the convenient distance to towns and beaches, you can also use it as a base to very easily explore all the region has to offer: Byron Bay and Bangalow (15 mins), Brunswick Heads (10 mins), and Mullumbimby (6 mins), all offering great dining, local market, and retail experiences. the area has a plethora of activities to pursue: swimming, walking, fishing, great surfing, sea kayaking, ballooning, skydiving, horseriding, golf (eg renowned Ocean Shores golf club is 20 minutes away), and the wonderful rail trail for bikers or walkers can be accessed at Mooball, a picturesque 20 min drive away or try out the new mountain bike trail at the vey pretty township of Uki in the hinterland. Beautiful waterfalls are less than a half hour drive away. There are local businesses who can help you pursue these kinds of activities if you don't bring your own equipment.

Offering 40 acres of Melaleuca Forest with two rivers just three minutes drive away. It's peaceful and full of birds singing during the day, with farmlands surrounding it. There are no facilities, so campers need to be fully self-contained and please take all waste with you. It's untouched and natural. You are welcome to find a suitable spot on the block to set up. The property is 20 drive mins to Yamba and 10 minutes drive to the historic Scottish town of McLean, so makes a great basecamp to explore the area. There is a hospital close by, and restaurants five minutes drive away, as well as houseboat hire 10 minutes away. Friendly neighbours.

The camp is perfectly nested among the trees, in full immersion with nature. Wildlife is present all around and it is a true pleasure to get away from the rumble of the cities. The land is level with heaps of room to set camp. Mick has been super welcoming and was eager to give some very helpful tips about places to visit in the region. If you’re looking for an authentic bush camp experience, that’s the one 👌🏻

The campsite and all amenities were extremely clean and well maintained, and the location was beautiful and convenient! Allan and Nyhree were incredibly friendly and went above and beyond to assist us with our stay during the rain which we really appreciated ❤️ One thing to keep in mind mind is that this campsite is quite close to the owners home and is somewhat visible from the main road, but we had an amazing time and can’t wait to stay here again!

Nestled in the heart of the Australian bush, this campsite provided our family with the perfect escape. It offers a unique balance: mornings at the beach and cafes in Yamba (just a short 30-minute drive away) and peaceful evenings by the fire under the stars. Mick made us feel right at home with his warm hospitality and expert local advice. If you're looking for a truly authentic camping experience with easy coastal access, this is it.

Firstly, Kate is an amazing host. We were made feel so welcome right from our arrival. The site was quite private and incredibly quiet. The only traffic noise was from the half dozen cars a day meandering down the country lane which is a no through road, so only local traffic. Sites are reasonably level however a standard levelling kit may help but not essential. Kate provided ample firewood to enjoy an evening fire while just looking at the starts. An abundance of wildlife is evident in the sub tropical surrounds. So close to some amazing townships as well as beaches. I highly recommend this piece of paradise. We stayed 5 nights and were not disappointed.

This was one of the best camps we had on a two week road trip along the east coast. Kate is lovely and very accomodating welcoming us with open arms. We arrived late and Kate had set up some beautiful lights for us to signal our camp. The property was gorgeous with so many beautiful fruit trees surrounding us as we camped. I would highly recommend staying here in the future and will keep it top of mind for future camps around that area.
