Visit Tathra, but stay at Kangarutha, only 2km from the edge of town, and enjoy space, privacy and tranquillity. We intentionally only have a limited number of campsites on our large property, so that you can enjoy camping in a natural setting away from the crowd. Our stunning property is comprised of open paddock areas surrounded by large areas of native forests, and we border national park. Enjoy the forest trails here on the property, which take you on a tour to our peaceful back dam. Or explore further afield - our place links to both the Tathra-Kalaru bike track and the Bournda National Park, where you can access the Tathra Mountain Bike Trail Network, as well as the secluded coves along the Kangarutha Walking Track. Our property was home to the former and well-loved businesses 'Kangarutha Nursery', and 'On the Perch Bird Park'. We have been busy re-imagining these spaces. We have drinking water, flushing accessible toilets and one hot shower a short walk from the campsites. Our property is dog friendly for well behaved dogs that don't chase wildlife or the horses on our property. No hunting dogs. Campfires permitted when there are no restrictions. You can gather your own wood, or we can prepare wood for you.

Camp by the Dam
Lisa and Tom were so welcoming. The location was perfect distance from towns. We stayed at the Dam campsite where large flat grassy area was available for a motorhome, a large tent and a marquee. We purchased firewood which was more than enough for three nights. Having a clean toilet and shower as well as drinking water and a microwave was a bonus. There are multiple shelters in case of bad weather.

Kangarutha Bush Camp Site 1
Amazing bush camp experience
This was such a lovely venue! Close to both Tathra and Bega and really well appointed! We ordered the extra firewood and it was as a lot- we didn’t use it all over the weekend. We loved the shed area and gardens - it would be great to host weddings in this space if you wanted a bush wedding with cute horses in the background! We brought a Maltese dog and kept him on a leash the whole time and he had a good time too. I recommend seeing if you can use the camp fire ground near the toilet block for a fire at some point too if you have a group as the log seats there are super comfy and the gravel around it gave us peace of mind we weren’t going to start a bush fire as it was super windy the last night. Tom was a clear communicator and gave us tips on where to swim. Couldn’t t rate this place highly enough!!

We keep going back to Kangarutha - so close to town but yet you feel very secluded

Camp by the Dam
We loved it at Tom and Lisa’s. Well spaced out sites so nice and quiet. Great to be able to take the dog! Awesome to be able to collect our own firewood from the property and the kids had a ball in the dam. Thanks very much for having us!

Big Paddock Creek Camp
We loved camping at the big paddock creek camp. So peaceful and green and away on our own. The horses loved to visit us and enjoyed a pat. Beautiful place and Lisa and Tom thank you.
