The weather is warm and the site behind our pool is a nice space to be! It is lovely to be in a space where you are the only camper! The tropical gardens provide privacy and abundant bird life. The property is safe and secluded in the rural suburb of Virginia. We are situated in the Darwin Rural area on 5 acres of bush land with tropical gardens and a saltwater swimming pool. There is a variety of bird life, lizards, frogs, and possums. You can feed our friendly butcher birds and King Fishers on the fly from our verandah or pool area. Sit with the fish pond and chat with the turtle who is very shy! We have dogs that live at the property so pets on application only. (we do have a dog cage available if required and can pet sit for a day if required ) If you are travelling with a horse, we have a stable, water trough and can activate an electric fence for a horse yard. (price on application) We have caravan sites for fully self-contained caravans and we now have a shower and toilet available. If you are travelling in a group, we can accommodate you in a large open area if your group would like to stay together. Each caravan site has its own fireplace for your use. Only 5 minutes from Palmerston, 25minutes from Darwin CBD. If you are looking for a local fishing tour we can hook you up with the locals as our neighbour runs Outback Fishing Tours. We have many fishing and crabbing locations close by on the Elizabeth River, Middle Arm or around Darwin Harbour. Need a driver for a night out in town, we can arrange that too! Local Fred's Pass Food and Craft Markets are open Saturday and Wednesday night.

Jets Stable
We stayed 5 nights and loved our stay. Jets stable site is roomy and well shaded with a concrete slab floor and access to power and water. It over looks the horse paddock sites so you may see other campers depending on how busy it is but there is plenty of space for everyone to spread out. The onsite shower/toilet is great and having access to the beautiful pool area was wonderful. Variety of shops with everything you need within 10min drive and it was 25min into the city centre which we did daily.

Pool Camp
Great camp other than the midgies
This was a lovely camp we stayed in the pool camp which was located close to the swimming pool. The property is lovely and quiet and they have a nice shower and toilet available plus trampoline for the kids. Be prepared though the midgies are really bad. We couldn't go outside without covering ourselves in spray or we would get hammered and even had to close all the van windows as they were coming in through the screens. Jenny and Tony did offer to spray the area for us which helped slightly but still couldn't have anything open or they would fill the van.

Good spot to stay 25 mins outside of Darwin. Quiet and peaceful. The swimming pool was very nice to cool off in. There were TONS of midgies and we got eaten alive, but that might just be how they are at this time of year in Darwin.
