The Ranch on Clarence

29 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents113 acres · Louisa Creek, NSW
The Ranch on Clarence River: Horse Lovers Camp & Riverside Adventure Discover a serene escape on our stunning 113-acre property, boasting 1.3 kilometers of pristine Clarence River freshwater frontage. Surrounded by the peaceful presence of over 30 majestic Andalusian and Warlander horses as well as other breeds roaming freely. You’ll find a true sanctuary for both relaxation and adventure. Horse Lovers Camp offers ample space for self-contained campers to pitch their tent or park their off-road caravan. Nestled along the edge of the mighty Clarence River. From soaring cliff faces overlooking the river and the vast expanse at the southern end of the property, with platypus, to peaceful rapids and large swimming pools in the middle and a sandy beach at the northern end, the property really does have it all. There is great walking and mountain bike trails all over the property for your enjoyment. You can embrace the tranquility of nature, whether you’re gazing at the horses, fishing, swimming, or kayaking. Explore the hills on your mountain bike, or unwind by the campfire under the stars. For the equine enthusiasts, you can meet our herd and book a personalized horse riding or equine experience. If horses aren’t your thing, take advantage of the riverfront—swim, fish, or paddle in the refreshing waters while your friends ride. Key Features: Clarence Camping: 1.3km of Clarence River frontage with ample space for off-road caravans or tents. Equine Experiences: If you are a thrill seeker, you have found the right place!! Ask us about our multi-day treks, or book our 1 or 2 hr River Ride (we may just swim the horses bareback in the river if the conditions are right on the 2 hr ride) Bring in the herd on our Troopie Horse Safari. This is an experience like no other with the herd galloping along side the Troopie! Yeeehaaaa!! Meet and greet our herd of over 30 horses! Outdoor Adventure: Kayak, swim, fish, or bike—there’s plenty to do! Campfires & Stargazing: End your day by the fire, gazing at the stars above. Please note, we currently welcome only self-contained campers who bring their own toilet, shower, and drinking water. UPDATE: We do have 1 flush toilet available for all our guests on the property nearby the Homestead. Pets are welcome as long as they are well-behaved, and if your pet tends to chase livestock, they’ll need to be leashed. If the fire baths are your calling card, book Swan Lake. Our property is 2WD & 4WD accessible, with 4WD caravans and camper trailers welcome. We do have plenty of 2WD sites available as well. If you’re unsure about your vehicle, feel free to message us for a chat. The Ranch on Clarence is a sister business to The Ranch Byron Bay, where we offer memorable equine experiences.

Bajimba Eco Camp is part of our stunning family property nestled in the surrounds of Mt Bajimba in the Northern Tablelands of NSW, 40 minutes south east of Tenterfield.

We are just over 1,100 metres above sea level, with 57 acres of eucalypt & grass tree forests, grass pastures, and a small (but mighty) organic farm. Accommodation options include "Fancy Camp", situated at our highest elevation with incredible views from the deck, and "Bush Camp" which can accommodate tents, caravans or motor homes. Amenities for both sites include an ablution block with hot shower and composting toilet, with steam sauna and wood-fired hot tub available by appointment.

Bajimba backs on to Washpool National Park, providing thousands of acres for 4wd exploring, with fishing, hunting, hiking, bird watching only a stones throw away.
