We had a great stay here. It was peaceful, and the hosts let us feed the animals and use the kids outdoor gym and trampoline. Thank you!

Old Mill Field

Stockyard Lane, Old Mill Field, was large, mostly flat, freshly mowed green grass, surrounded by stunning green hills, bushland, dams, cows, sheep & chickens in the distance & a wombat (stumbled across several dugouts, but never saw it). We even ate wild blackberries. Evan met us on arrival & gave a tour of the camp area, which we had to ourselves. We met with Kate & Evan the following day & had some friendly chat. Driveway is dirt/gravel, nicely maintained, some low hanging small branches to navigate for our big rig - no issues. Area is 2WD accessible but when wet may be some soft patches best for 4WD. Camp is far back from street & highway noise heard, but, only during the day. By late afternoon traffic noise gone & sunset over the trees has a vibrant orange glow. Property fully maintained by Kate, Evan & their kids & all Hipcamp earnings given to charity close to their hearts. Their fee is small compared to other Hipcamps who offer less & charge double. You won’t meet a more generous & kind couple. Local dump point 8mins drive but doesn’t have water. 20mins drive has dump point in nearby Orbost & potable water right next door. There’s a small IGA/Liquor store & larger Foodworks & Caltex for diesel, ULP98 & ULP91. 100% choose this Hipcamp over others in the area, but ensure you discuss vehicle size prior to booking, as if full, may struggle to navigate area. Beautiful Hipcamp.

Plenty of space. Evan and Kate were so happy to host us. As we weren't well Kate gave us some coconut water and as there were no other campers we felt safe and content to recover by ourselves.

Stockyard Lane was the perfect overnight stop for us to breakup a long 10hr drive! Just off the main road easy to pull in and not even unhitch, exactly what we were after. Unfortunately it rained the whole time so we didn’t venture far from the van. Kate and Ev were great communicators, we would happily stay agin.

My husband and I had a great time tent camping here. I'm glad Evan asked if we wanted/that he had a site that was private. We camped near the little lagoon/pond area next to an abandoned building, and it was nice and quiet. We also took Evan's recommendation of driving only 11 minutes to Salmon Rocks at sunset..HIGHLY recommend!!! Soo beautiful.
