Happy campers

We had a great time camping at Shukuru Farm. Feeling very private as each sites were kept away from each other. We love swimming in the dam and the dogs love roaming the bush and rolling in the big open grassy space. The host was super nice and made us feel very welcomed. We can't wait to go back.

BEST PRIVATE CAMPSITES

Such a beautiful, private, safe location. Fenced in for the dogs (livestock is far enough away so no need to worry there) Quiet enough to feel like you’re isolated out in the Forrest. Beautiful lush green paddocks & so much room to explore. Fiona & Pete are so so kind & lovely. The no reception was actually amazing, they even provided wifi if you need reception for anything. 10/10 would recommend. We’ll absolutely be back!!
