Once a much larger property, we purchased our 120-acre (50-hectare) in 1984 as a means to live sustainably and raise a family. Living in our shed whilst we prepared the garden, put in watering infrastructure and built our house which we finally moved in when our daughter was 6 months old in 1990. Over the ensuing years we have continued to increase biodiversity on the property and set it up so we can live sustainably, harvesting our own water, electricity and food. If your lucky you could get a hamper of our product when there is sufficient in season. With the increased biodiversity you will find that in the mornings and evenings kangaroos and wallabies will visit with the occasional echidna, rabbit and hare; and to forget the large array of bird life - that may wake you early in the morning with the songs. This campsite is set on lovely grassy open areas interspersed with gum trees. The sunrise looks spectacular near the dam, when the trees give off a lovely glow. The main paddock has a Geodome, a shared space for relaxing in. With all that space you can park and set up camp anywhere in the paddock. There is access to drinking water, toilets, and a hot shower. Around the dome is a firepit, drinking water and a camp kitchen. The firepit features an Argentinian BBQ and a plate for cooking. The kitchen has plates, cups, cutlery, and other bits and pieces for you to use. We also allow for your pets to stay onsite, this also includes horses. If you want exclusive use of the paddocks - refer to Group Bush Retreat.

Peaceful and Spacious
Great location and spacious sites.
Margot was a brilliant host and provided very detailed instructions prior to arriving at the property. Once we arrived, there were multiple campsites to choose from and still a great distance from your closest neighbour. We were fortunate enough to have the dog friendly campsite where our dogs were able to be off leash and contained within a large paddock. The toilets/shower were very well maintained and clean which we really appreciated. Margot has put in a lot of effort to ensure people visiting have many options to hire for entertainment and cooking facilities if needed. We would definitely visit again.

Windy weekend
We loved camping over a windy October long weekend at Maddara. Margot and Mike are very welcoming and great hosts. The site is well looked after and the facilities are kept very clean. We will return on a less windy occasion

Comfortable, clean getaway
We had an absolute blast - great cooking, toilet and shower facilities that are extremely clean and well looked after. Lots of camping space and the dome is fantastic for a group to hang out. We opted for firewood and a fire pit which were all organised when we arrived, and the instructions on how to get there were thorough and easy to follow. Thanks for a wonderful stay!
