Heartwood Farm is a centrally located 120 acres on the Mid-North Coast - about half way between Sydney and Brisbane, only 1.5 kms off Pacific Highway, 25 mins to Port Macquarie, 15 Mins to Kempsey, 30 minutes to Crescent Head and 45 mins to South West Rocks.  We are off grid and live close to nature and enjoy the abundance that provides. We have been building and developing for the last few years. We are still a work in progress. There are three Brumbies that have the run of the place. They are friendly, especially if you have a carrot. There are also a lot of kangaroos and wallabies, some quite friendly as they have been raised by our neighbour who does animal rescue. There are also a lot of different species of birds, including the much loved Black Cockatoos which are in abundance here. We have also seen turtles, frilled neck lizards, diamond pythons, red belly black snakes (rarely) and goannas. Very centrally located 120 acres on the Mid-North Coast - about half way between Sydney and Brisbane, only 1.5 kms off Pacific Highway. Numerous areas available next to large dams - and surrounding hardwood forest. Large number of kangaroos and wallabies, and incredible bird and reptile life. Access to beautiful creek and swimming holes. We are located just 25 mins to Port Macquarie, 15 minutes to Kempsey, 30 mins to Crescent Head, 30 mins to Wauchope, 45min to South West Rocks. Perfect for surfers who want proximity to a lot of different breaks or people that want explore some of the amazing scenery in the northern part of the mid-north coast.  You will need to be a self-contained camper who brings their own toilet and washing facilities and disposes of all rubbish. The water in dams and creek is drinkable although we suggest boiling first. We can provide filtered water on request - byo container. Free firewood - but all fires are subject to current fire restrictions. Plenty of tracks and bush walks. Suitable for horse riding - and can accommodate horses subject to prior approval. One well behaved pet dog allowed per site. We may be able to relax that rule but that is subject to prior approval. Quiet and respectful campers only, no parties. Check in after noon,  check out before noon. Ask if you need extensions either end.

Back again for another quick getaway. Surrounded by tall timber and scenic backdrops, it is hard not to fall in love with Lorraine's place. Tranquillity awaits anyone wanting to escape normal life for a few days.

Back to nature
What a fabulous place to camp for a weekend. The level areas surround a picturesque dam and shaded by majestic towering gum trees. Plenty of space to set up and room to explore the property. You will likely see a few riendly brumbies, watch Kangaroos and listen to the chorus of frogs into the evening. Directions are easy to follow and Lorraine is very welcoming.
