Nestled along a picturesque 1-km stretch of the Bellinger River, our camping grounds offer level, grassy sites with open spaces perfect for relaxing and reconnecting with nature. Just a short walk into town, you’ll find a charming milk bar serving fresh fish and chips only 700 meters down the road, or for the adventurous, swim across the river for breakfast or lunch at the iconic Old Butter Factory Cafe. Enjoy complimentary on-site kayaking, fishing right from your camp, and a chance to spot the elusive platypus! A new fence keeps the cows out, so you can relax and enjoy the peaceful surroundings. Facilities include a pit toilet. We welcome pets and families, with free entry for children. Only one vehicle per booking is allowed, though we can easily accommodate group bookings on a single site—just email us to arrange. Caravan hire is also available for added convenience.

Bellinger River Camping
Camping with cows & river swimming
Loved this camp site, The hosts were very welcoming and helpful. The river and the big grassy paddock, river swimming was great as was the rope swing. We had adequate privacy, no unwelcome noise from other campers or road noise, and the camping wasn't crowded. We could have had a campfire if we’d had our own fire wood. We had to provide our own toilet paper for the drop toilet. I’d recommend to the hosts to provide toilet paper and a hand wash station or hand sanitizer outside the toilet - would make things feel a bit more hygienic. Overall fantastic camping! 😀

Ruhige Lage zwischen Fluss und Kuhwiese. Unkomplizierter Check In. Wir haben zur Begrüßung eine Gurke geschenkt bekommen und hatten so gleich noch ein Extra zum Abendessen. Würden jederzeit wiederkommen :)

Close to town and nice and quiet. Camp sites were flat and spacious with a fire pit space at each.

Dom and Jackie were fantastic hosts! Their property was stunning with river access and 5 mins to the centre of town.
