Nomadic camping
Best for self-contained campers. There are no toilets, showers, or potable water at this Hipcamp.
Welcome to Somerville Park, a 500 acre sheep farm at Fosterville. There are a variety of beautiful campsites suitable for self-contained guests who have their own toilet/shower facilities and drinking water. Fires are permitted out of fire restriction times and feel free to bring your furry friends, making sure they're leashed at all times. The farm is completely surrounded by the Wellsford state forest which offers bush walking and many tracks for bike riding. Mt Sugarloaf which is situated south of the property provides a great hike. Spectacular sunrises and sunsets create beautiful reflections on the water in the numerous dams on the property. Rainfall can restrict access to sites on the property. The city of Bendigo is 25mins drive. Epsom is a 15min drive where you will find a shopping centre which includes a petrol station, Woollies, Pizza, Chemist Warehouse, Aldi, Brumbys Bakery, Reject Shop, Fish and Chips and BWS. Lake Eppalock is a 25min drive where you can engage in water sport activities. The Campaspe River is 10mins away. The farm is very quiet and restful with the sounds of abundant native bird life and provides great subjects and scenery for the photographic enthusiast.

Lone Setting
Peaceful serenity
From a big welcome from Sheryl, Rebecca, Tom and Champ to a brilliant location. What more could you want? Throw in sunny blue skies, crisp clear nights and no one in sight - it couldn’t get any better for some off grid caravanning. A very big thanks for hosting us. We’ll be back.

Top Dam
Beautiful property. Thank you for letting us stay at Top Dam. It’s just what we were looking for to relax and reconnect as a family in the beautiful outdoors.

Top Dam
Magical sunsets
What a beautiful property! Sheryl and her daughter are amazing hosts. Met us at the gate, showed us to our site and around. It is a magical property with ample space and privacy between sites. Heaps of kangaroos in the morning and evenings and from Top Dam is one of the most magical sunsets. We cannot wait to come back!
