Peaceful site

Lovely site next to a bubbling river let with frogs and resident wombat. Very responsive and kind hosts. Lovely spot for a camper and tent

Big Bell Farm Camp

When we booked this site we thought $95 was expensive for a site with zero amenities. However, we needed to be within half an hours drive of a wedding venue and this was all that was available considering we booked late. Positives: the site is close to Kangaroo Valley, just a very short drive. It’s quite a pretty site with a large tree and a creek running through it. The sound of the water flowing at night is pleasant. The hosts were friendly, communicative, and amenable. Negatives: the site is right on the road, privacy is non existant. The first image in the listing is quite misleading because it looks like you’ll be in a large field, but actually it’s just a triangle of grass next to the road. Even the pictures of the actual site crop the road out. It’s so close that even though we put our shower tent as far from the road as possible, when my partner stepped out of it with a towel wrapped around him, cars were honking… There is no mention on the listing that the area is surrounded by an electric fence. Whilst there is a sign, because it was high on the tree (and the listing says you can walk your dog along the creek), it didn’t occur to me that it also ran low along the side of the creek. Our dog got shocked which was quite traumatic, and I would have been way more vigilant if I’d known. With the negatives in mind, and given the lack of amenities, the $95 a night price point seems ridiculous; $30 is more realistic. Do not recommend for those with dogs or children.

Close to Kangaroo Valley town

Has a sign on gate to assist locating the paddock which we find helpful. Very convenient to Kanagroo Valley township and wonderful views in this area of the surrounding hills. Good level area and enough space to throw a ball atound or frusbee. Was recently slashed and also featured pleasant sounds from the creek running by very close to the camp area. Overall very satisfied with our stay here.

Perfect for a stop over

Overall the site was perfect for our stop over in Kangaroo Valley. Our stop was booked last minute and the hosts were very accomodating in helping us find the site. (We came from a different direction and got a little lost!) The site is what it says, you need to be 100% self efficient. Plus sides: Lovely little bubbling creek in the field. Lovely sound to fall asleep too! Very private, we shared only with one other camper family. Beautiful views of the hills and morning mists. Only 4km from Kangaroo Valley Village. Not so plus sides: A few Mozzies due to the creek and lots of flies from the cows. The campsite is a little field on the side of a road, the road is quiet at night however there is morning traffic. Expensive At $100+ a night it was a lot more than other sites with more amenities/offerings etc. Overall I would recommend and stay again when passing through as all types of accommodation is expensive in the area, but only as a stop over, plus it’s great for convenience if travelling with a four pawed friend!
