Camp amongst the camels and enjoy the option of a camel ride along our private property with mountain silhouettes as your backdrop (pre bookings are a must). Feed the camels, calves and goats amongst other farm animals. Enjoy some quite time in semi rural setting close to beach, Barra and shops. You'll need to have your own camping toilet and leave no trace. Small pets are welcome but strictly on a leash at all times. Other options available are sapphire fossicking (Cash payable on site) with an authentic experience and guaranteed to find some beautiful Australian Sapphires of different colours. You are required to be self sufficient and take all your waste with you. Campfires permitted in line with local regulations. Ensure there are no fire bans before lighting. Ensure conditions are safe, low winds only. Ensure fires are only in pits provided and put out before leaving.

Great spot. Our animal loving kids loved waking up to camels, goats, chickens & Trigger (dog).

Not fantastic.
We arrived at the camp and were greeted by a disorganised and very disappointing campsite. There were horse floats and cars parked randomly with no thought to where campers would be staying. The camp is just the carpark for the business and is stuck between two houses and a shed.. The house on the left is clearly visibly from the campsite and the road and is less than inviting with stuff strewn all over the yard. We did not feel comfortable staying there and we decided to leave and find alternative accommodation. As an overnight stop it might be ok but not for an extended stay as we had booked.

Nice enough area but, very uncomfortable being between two house, not private at all. Almost felt like we were being supervised at all times. Felt unorganised and rude.
