Hillier Hideaway is a beautiful 5-acre property located 2 minutes from Coolalinga Central. With 4 well shaded, spacious sites this is the perfect place to pull up and explore Darwin and its surrounds. Sites are not visible from the road and there are no dirt bike tracks or open land adjoining the property, making this a very secluded and safe site. We can accommodate vans up to 24 feet and have 1 dedicated site for either a camper trailer or tent. All sites have no power or water, so you will need to be fully self-sufficient. There is however a single shower and toilet for use if needed. There is a dump point at the Caravan Park across from Coolalinga Central that can be used for a small fee. All sites are well maintained with plenty of shade, please note during the dry season the grassed area will die off. There will be areas allocated for small campfires and guests must follow fire bans as the restrictions come up. There are wild peacocks that come in at dawn and dusk to get their daily feed, guests are welcome to come watch, Burdekin ducks and possums at night. Pets are allowed however dogs must remain on a lead as there is allot of wildlife that call the property home. We can also store caravan/boats on the property if needed, contact us for further information.

Amazing base to explore darwin
Andrew and Michelle were top rate hosts. We were warmly welcomed onto their property for 4 nights and looked after as though we were friends. Mozzies were kept at bay by Andrew, the bathroom was super clean and we were given plenty of recommendations for the area. Would definitely stay again!

We booked in for a week when we arrived. The next day the host told us we had to go because he was closing the site.

Wonderful hosts with private sites
If you’re looking for a great place to stay when you’re in Darwin, this is it. Friendly hosts, private quiet area to stay that’s surrounded by gardens and wildlife. Shops and well known tourist areas close by. Nothing feels too far away. Highly recommend a stay and well done Andrew and Michelle. We’ll be back.
