Bradbury Nature Retreat

1 site · RV, Tent11 acres · Scott Creek, SA

Dreaming of a retreat in the heart of the Adelaide Hills? Bradbury Nature Retreat is located on a stunning 11 acre property that offers glorious uninterrupted views all the way to Aldinga Beach (just ask the host to show you where you can find this secret view). The property is accessed via a private road so it is incredibly quiet and serene. Instead, get lost in the sound of wild-life all around you! Your campsite is surrounded by native trees and scrub so it’s not unusual to have kangaroos, koalas, and native birds like kookaburras and cockatoos stop by for a visit. Behind your campsite there's an organic fruit orchard filled with ducks and chickens, and a piggery where Camilla the friendly pig lives. The property also features paddocks with roaming sheep and alpacas. Let the host know if you would like a farm tour or to join in feeding the farm animals. We are a small, family owned and run hobby farm. Eggs and other farm produce for sale on request when there is surplus. Campfires allowed in winter/when restrictions aren't in place (BYO wood or ask us about buying some). Experiences around Bradbury: • Our property is 5km from Warrawong Wildlife Sanctuary, the home to countless Australian native animals and the only place on mainland South Australia where you can see the elusive platypus! • Just a 7-minute drive to Deviation Road Winery where you can unwind from a hard week at work with a sophisticated wine and an all-day food menu whilst surrounded by vineyards and heritage listed bushlands. • On the main street in Stirling you will find the artisan ice-creamery, chocolate and lolly shop, Hokey Pokey. Our favourite is their house-made ice-cream made with biodynamic dairy and local, seasonal produce! • If you’re looking for somewhere to go for dinner Bradbury isn’t far from the Aldgate Pump Hotel, the Stirling Hotel and the Crafers Hotel, just to name a few. • For the plant lovers, Tupelo Grove Nursery is a 7-minute drive away in the outskirts of Mylor. This family-owned nursery is a must see and is known to be the go to place for harder to find, unique plants!

Sticks n Stones

3 sites · RVs, Tents100 acres · Island Beach, SA

SELF CONTAINED CAMPING ONLY. Leave no trace camping facility. Rubbish to be removed by campers. Encouraging lovers of Australian flora and fauna and natural surroundings to come enjoy this special place. A 100 acre Bush woodland block with KI Wildlife fauna and flora. Situated above the islands ismuth and more south Coast. Wildlife includes Western grey kangaroos, KI roos, wallabys, echidna, Rosenburg goanna, abundant birdlife and flora. We were not burnt out here. Our aim is to have complete freedom from stress and anxiety'Ataraxia'. To achieve ataraxia we need to keep our desires in check and simply satisfy our basic needs. Thats what we offer. Raw nature, you bring what you need self contained camping. Toilet facilities may come later if needed. Walks and beautiful beaches, lagoons nearby. Great fishing nearby too. Townships 10-15 mins (Penneshaw and American River) . Kingscote 30-40 mins NO CATS ALLOWED. Other pets allowed but must be controlled by owners as it is a wildlife habitat too. And the roos are BIG! Please do not feed Kangaroos as it encourages dependence. This is a progressive start as a beginner for hosting hipcampers I am taking small steps to improve the facilities as the needs are observed and recognised. May you enjoy and respect this outdoor australian experience.
