The Hatch Farm - Port Macquarie

14 sites · RVs, Tents150 acres · The Hatch, NSW
Welcome to Port Macquarie's 'The Hatch Farm'; a pet friendly, interactive animal and fishing farm stay! A 150-acre working farm with a stunning outlook over the saltwater Maria River (with a rustic boat ramp and waterway running into the Hastings River). Located on the Mid North Coast NSW, 4kms off the Pacific Highway, and a quick 13/15-minute drive to the holiday township of Port Macquarie. Port Macquarie is known for its beautiful beaches, coastal scenery and walks, koala hospital, and local strawberry and tomato picking. Bernard and Susan are custodians of the farm, primarily using the land for poultry (egg), pig, and goat farming. They are transitioning to an off-grid and eco-friendly lifestyle for their retirement. The Hatch Farm is home to many animals, most of whom are rescues - including border collies, cavalier king charles spaniels, chickens, ducks, pigs, sheep, goats, miniature horses, cows, cats, rabbits, and guinea pigs. There is plenty to do and see around the farm from complete relaxation, interacting with the friendly animals (there is usually a variety of babies to cuddle!), to casting a line or launching your boat from the rustic boat ramp. Please note that all animal interactions are self-led (including our animal nursery), and children must be supervised by their parents/carers. During NSW School Holidays, host led animal interactions will be available at designated times. Friendly pets welcome.

Levenvale Farm in Bellingen

9 sites · RVs, Tents500 acres · Valery, NSW
We are farmers, living the dream on 500 acres in beautiful Bellingen. Our farm is called Levenvale Farm. You will feel a million miles away, yet we are only 7mins into the town of Bellingen. We run an organic cattle property and have found a few spots around our farm to share with campers and glampers. Our campsites are "Beyond the Bridge" and "Old Flat Camp". Both are on cattle paddocks and have private access to Hydes Creek. Hydes Creek is a murky sandy base creek. There's lots of logs so its not recommend to jump in, but it's beautiful to cool off in the creek on a hot day. Both campsites have access to our compost toilet, and open air outdoor camping shower (gas hot water). If you prefer a bit more comfort or don't have your own camping gear, you can escape the hustle and enjoy being perched up on one of the highest points on the farm (with incredible views), in our Farm Huts. Both the Hut and the Tent are furnished with beds and linen but have no power. Both share access to a Drop Loo and a compost toilet, with gas hot water shower (in our very rustic Horse Float ensuite). At all our sites, we welcome you to have a small fire, and cook up a BBQ. Our Farm Shop is open 24/7 to self serve and grab some organic beef sausages or steaks. Reach out if you want us to have them defrosted for your arrival. All of our listings offer spectacular sunrises, sunsets over the mountains and wanderings through lush rainforest. Experience all the adventures of Levenvale Farm and reconnect with nature.

The best camping near Yarrahapinni Wetlands National Park guide

Overview

About

Immerse yourself in the tranquil splendor of Yarrahapinni Wetlands National Park, a haven for nature enthusiasts and birdwatchers alike. Traverse the lush landscapes, observe the rich biodiversity, and revel in the peaceful atmosphere of this protected area. Whether you're seeking a leisurely stroll or an educational journey, the park offers a myriad of activities to connect you with the natural world.

When to go

The best time to visit Yarrahapinni Wetlands National Park is during the cooler, drier months from April to September. Wildlife is abundant and the weather is more conducive for exploring. The wet season, from October to March, can be challenging with heavy rains and potential flooding, making some areas of the park less accessible.

Know before you go

  • Check the latest park alerts and weather conditions before planning your visit to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience.
  • Remember to bring insect repellent and sun protection, as the wetlands can be a haven for mosquitoes and the sun can be intense.
  • Wear appropriate footwear for walking on potentially wet and muddy trails.
  • Be mindful of the park's wildlife; observe from a distance and do not feed the animals.
  • For any inquiries or assistance, contact the Kempsey office during contact hours: Monday to Friday, 9am to 4:30pm.
