Quiet and peaceful

12 ft pop-up camper

Beautiful quiet place. Even though it's close to a road there is hardly any traffic. Nicole was lovely. Checked in to make sure all was OK. Unfortunately I had an emergency back home and had to leave early but hopely will be back. Didn't get a chance to check out the little creek that's alongside the property.

Tent

We spent 2 nights here, thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend to anyone wanting to enjoy the relaxing peace & quiet. Nicole was a fantastic host, with plenty of information and knowledge of the area. The Timor Caves were a highlight as was the drive to and from the area.

Short drive from Murrurundi

Tent

Beautifully located in the highlands just a 15-20 minute drive from the cozy town of Murrurundi, so plenty of cool stuff to do in the area. Nearby river Isis is worth exploring you're into fishing or just enjoy chilling by the running water. Property itself has enough space for caravans and large size tents. The access is easy, just drive through the gates and set yourself a camp. You can't go wrong picking this site as your next camping getaway.
