Back to nature
What a incredible location. Big rocks is such a nice spot. Highly recommend. Get away from the big smoke and come enjoy some time getting out in nature.

Camping with animals!
John and Lyn were fabulous hosts. Nothing was a bother. The campsites are beautifully cleaned and looked after. We were fortunate enough to go after the rain so there was water running through the nearby creek. The farm animals are sweet and love a pat or belly rub (Peaches the pig) and are so well looked after. A perfect mental health getaway to unwind, switch off, relax, walk, climb the mountain to watch the sunset, pat an animal, play a game of pool in the communal area, sit by the campfire, or simply read a book. I can't recommend enough. Thank you!

In general we were very disappointed, no water, no facilities in so called camp kitchen and is a absolute nightmare getting a 4 wheel drive and 28 foot caravan up the track into the camp site. Details should say not suitable for caravans.
