Bellandre Park

2 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents3060 acres · Molong, NSW
We are Marilyn and Peter, we own, live and run a mixed farming business from this beautiful land, located in the Central Tablelands NSW. The country varies between undulating and steep land and has 7 km of double frontage Bell River running through it. The river can range from rapidly flowing to the more usual steady flowing and is most often very clear. The river has numerous swimming spots, some with a rocky base, and some with sand. The winding river and the varying countryside is incredibly peaceful and beautiful and is a perfect retreat for those looking to disconnect and relax. The river has its origin near Orange and is also fed into by many springs. Weandre Creek runs in the backcountry and winds into the Bell River. Our comfortable Hut is situated on an elevated spot looking down on the river with a graduated road leading down. It has everything you need for a relaxing, recharging stay in nature. The Hut can accommodate up to 4 people, however, you also have the option for up to 6 additional guests to set up swags, tents, or a camper trailer nearby. There is space next to the Hut, or for those with a 4WD, there are some lovely camping sites down by the river. We also offer sites for those looking for a self-contained camping site, in a beautiful location. We love the solitude, the endless bush walks, swimming, and being immersed in nature. We are confident you will too. We also have a lovely art gallery on the property, and for a small fee and prior arrangement, you are welcome to come and take a look. From our farm, it is 60 km to Orange with all its wineries, food festivals, and many attractions. Wellington is 40 km and boasts the Wellington Caves. Dubbo is 90 km and is a big inland city and boasts the Western Plains Zoo. We are so glad to let you know we have a new (but intentionally rustic) structure which houses a shower powered by gas and solar with gravity fed water. Showers need to be short because water supply is limited. In a separate space is a gas BBQ and sink. This is pictured in our latest photos. This building also looks down on the Bell river which looks sensational at the moment due to all the rain.

Bindari | A High Place in Wiradjuri

5 sites · RVs, Tents1 acre · Rockley, NSW
This 1/2 acre site is suitable for small camping stays and campervans. It's dog friendly and has great mobile and 3/4G reception especially for Optus and Telstra. Two wheel drive vehicles can park on the pad just past the entry which is perfectly level or the gravel landing just before the entry which is almost level. The site is in a great location on the last residential block of historic picturesque Rockley in the Central Tablelands (Wiradjuri Country) NSW. Surrounded by nice paddocks remnant bushland screens the site from the no through road (about 5 cars a day) provides shade and brings in birdlife and other animals. You might even see an echidna or koala! On the main street about 10mins walk from Bindari is the Rockley Pub by Matt Moran plus a few other trinket shops. The pub is open Thursday-Sunday and has great pub meals and a good vibe. You can leave your vehicle parked at Bindari and take the short walk through the very pleasant historic village. Different routes there and back make for a nice round trip to explore the scenery of the old gold rush village on foot. The easiest way to get to Bindari at Rockley from Sydney is by taking the Rockley road from Bathurst. From Sydney take the Great Western Highway (A32) up and through the Blue Mountains, a stop in Blackheath works well as it’s about ½ way. Then down the steep Victoria Pass into the Central Tablelands and straight through mostly dual carriageways turning left just before Bathurst onto Rockley Road. The scenic route is lovely and actually shorter but very tricky to navigate with phone reception dropping out and maps behaving strange as you are not taking the ‘main’ road. Add in a few potholes, unmarked road features, wildlife and country drivers coming at you in the opposite direction and there are as many surprises as there are wonders. But if you are a confident driver ready to take it slow when needed you are in for an enjoyable journey. At South Bowenfels, before Lithgow, take the off road at the service station (a good place to do a last check of fuel, tyres etc) and head towards Tarana, a lovely country pub. Next landmark is the O'Connell Hotel then put Rockley into the maps. This should bring you across the country through some amazing views but very tricky driving the first time you do it. So stay sharp (especially at night with wombats, rabbits and roos on the road) and only drive to the road conditions and your experience level.

Windy Oaks Farm

2 sites · RVs, Tents30 acres · O'connell, NSW
Windy Oaks Farm is a small 30 acre property with about 700 metres frontage on the Fish River. We grow saffron and garlic and other veggies, have a small orchard and plenty of eggs daily from our lovely chooks. Trout and fly anglers love our stretch of the river, as do bird watchers, nature lovers of any kind and anyone who simply loves the bush and being close to the water for a refreshing dip. BBQs down at the river are loads of fun, as are campfires when permitted. We have kangaroos in abundance, wombats and platypus. Windy Oaks is just 1.8 kms from the O'Connell Hotel if you're in the mood for a good old country pub feed. And right opposite the pub, coffee, cake and other delicious brekky and lunch treats are to found at Get Roasted - O'Connell's newly reopened cafe. Bathurst and Oberon are both 20kms either side of O'Connell with the world famous Mayfield Garden just 15 minutes drive away. Or, just relax and soak up the peace and quite of the Aussie bush right on the river. We live in one of the very few regions in Australia that boasts the perfect climate, conditions and soil for growing saffron - the most expensive spice in the world! Saffron harvest time is around the end of April for just a few weeks. This is a great time to see these spectacular flowers called crocus, come into bloom, where they are then handpicked for their valued bright red stigma. They are then dried, providing these most exquisite and highly sought after saffron threads. Just 20 minutes from Bathurst, Windy Oaks is a great option for motor racing enthusiasts who prefer not to stay at the large, crowded campsites around town. There is a very popular campground only 3 minutes from Windy Oaks that is always occupied and packed elbow to elbow during holidays and race weeks. Why not secure your very own exclusive patch on the river which would make for a great escape to relax after a noisey, busy and exciting day at Mount Panorama. There are several options along the river on which to camp. Photos 33-42 are showing some of those possible sites. But remember - you will have the place to yourself!

When to go

The ideal time to visit Orange Showground is during the spring and autumn months, when the weather is mild and the park's natural beauty is at its peak. Summer brings lively events, though be prepared for larger crowds and warmer temperatures. Winter can be quieter, offering a serene escape, though some areas may be less accessible.

Know before you go

  • Check the event schedule to plan your visit around the bustling local fairs and markets.
  • Ensure you have sun protection and hydration, especially during the warmer months.
  • Wear comfortable footwear suitable for walking on varied terrain.
  • Be mindful of park rules to preserve the environment and respect wildlife habitats.
  • Accessible facilities are available, but it's best to confirm ahead for specific needs.
