MARGOT is a Star Host

Star Hosts are highly rated, responsive, and committed to providing incredible experiences.

Once a much larger property, we purchased our 120-acre (50-hectare) in 1984 as a means to live sustainably and raise a family. Living in our shed whilst we prepared the garden, put in watering infrastructure and built our house which we finally moved in when our daughter was 6 months old in 1990. Over the ensuing years we have continued to increase biodiversity on the property and set it up so we can live sustainably, harvesting our own water, electricity and food. If your lucky you could get a hamper of our product when there is sufficient in season. With the increased biodiversity you will find that in the mornings and evenings kangaroos and wallabies will visit with the occasional echidna, rabbit and hare; and to forget the large array of bird life - that may wake you early in the morning with the songs. This campsite is set on lovely grassy open areas interspersed with gum trees. The sunrise looks spectacular near the dam, when the trees give off a lovely glow. The main paddock has a Geodome, a shared space for relaxing in. With all that space you can park and set up camp anywhere in the paddock. There is access to drinking water, toilets, and a hot shower. Around the dome is a firepit, drinking water and a camp kitchen. The firepit features an Argentinian BBQ and a plate for cooking. The kitchen has plates, cups, cutlery, and other bits and pieces for you to use. We also allow for your pets to stay onsite, this also includes horses. If you want exclusive use of the paddocks - refer to Group Bush Retreat.

Margot was super friendly and accommodating of my dog and I, giving us the dog paddock to camp in so the dog could roam around freely. Lovely location, important points faintly illuminated with lovely little lanterns, access to very clean and well looked after amenities - toilets and a hot shower, and potable water at multiple locations. Thank you so much for having us and we will gladly be back for a longer stay!

Camping at Maddara was a pleasant experience. Margot was inviting and informative when you first arrive at the gate. She provided a detailed outline of the layout and activities within her farm. The land itself was huge with various areas to camp and amenities provided such as grills, showers, toilets and running water. We particularly enjoyed hanging out with Harry the magpie and had a pleasant experience walking around as it provided a true outback feeling.

Margot is a really nice host. She is very clear with all instructions around the campsite. We just stayed overnight and I really hope we can stay at Margot's campsite again!

Easy spot to camp with birds

Peaceful and Spacious

Great little spot for a safe and happy camp, it's a shared but large site. Option to book the whole site out if there's a group of you. Lots of birds to see and a dusk visit from some kangaroos. Shower and toilets clean. Lovely view from the top of the hill. Margot was great to communicate with.

Such a beautiful and peaceful property to set up camp and relax for the night. Margot was lovely and very helpful. Very clean and fresh amenities. We enjoyed hanging out in the dome and watching the Roos while we had our morning coffee. Nice, safe and welcoming spot for the doggos to have a sniff and run around too.
