    Best for self-contained campers. There are no toilets, showers, or potable water at this Hipcamp.

    Now one site only. We are a 9 acre farm of beautiful Aussie bushland in Kundibakh. With Burrell creek running along the back. The Bucketts Way splits our property into a special spot just for you, 3 acres with your own gated entrance. Wander down to the creek to cool off with a perfect swimming hole after the rain, you might even be lucky enough to spot platypus if you’re super quiet. We are located half an hour from the freeway (turn off at Nabiac) and can easily get to Taree, Old Bar, Wingham, Gloucester, Diamond Beach, Black Head beach, Tuncurry and Forster.Plenty of space on your own site of 3 acres with Burrell Creek running along, try your hand at gold panning or see if you can spot a platypus! No power or bathroom facilities. Swimming in the creek in summer is glorious and fires in the winter are cosy, if the weather is good outside of fire season we can obtain a recreational fire permit for a contained campfire. We welcome groups larger than 8, We welcome pets but please remember to keep them secure (especially at night) and pick up after them. We are right on Bucketts Way with very easy access. Krambach is our local town with a good pub, and a servo stocking some basics. Nabiac is a great town and has an amazing pool, also has foodworks, cafes, chemist, bakery, butchers, a good pub, and The Artisan which is on the Highway. Krambach also has a pool and both are open during daylight savings. A pleasant drive from Krambach into Gloucester and Barrington tops. Heading north is 20mins to Wingham then a further 5mins to Taree. Old Bar is worth a mention for a beautiful Aussie coastal town vibe, with a great beach.

    Beautiful and private

    Beautiful private spot, swimming in the river was the biggest highlight, spent most of our time in the river floating around. Will definitely be back!

    Convenient location
    Tent
    Welcoming hosts and convenient location if you want to explore touristy attractions nearby. Grassy campsite with plenty of space for various setups. Spotted some nice little kingfishers near the creek.

    Our stay was wonderful. The camper site was very large and even being closer to the road we didn't hear much traffic that impacted our stay. Easy access to the creek. Plenty of sights to explore in the area.

    We loved that each booking is for the entire 3 acre paddock. This meant that we had the whole place to ourselves and could enjoy the river in solitude. The river is nice and shallow and was perfect for the kids to play around in safely.

    A must stay!

    We loved our stay at Platypus Creek, the creek and swimming hole were awesome and a great way to cool down. Our dog loved being off lead as the site is all to yourself. No reception and need some ear plugs for the cicadas but we couldn’t recommend this spot enough!

    Site 2
    5 m pop-up camper
    We stayed for 2 nights had rain wind and sun. Site 2 is further away from traffic noise but it really didn't bother us. The space to camp is really spacious for each site. We had a fire and cooked dinner on the Saturday night as it wasn't raining. Creek is easy to access and very pretty. Our dog loved the place ! We will definitely do another stay!
