Long weekend with pups

Weeping Willow (main site)

Rodborough Vale was a superb place to set up for the long weekend with our caravan & Mark is a terrific host. Flat site, easy to access and safe places to set up camp clear of trees if you wish. We had such a relaxing time & the dogs absolutely loved it too! With some pretty hot weather, we really enjoyed the swimming hole at Weeping Willow and pleasant shade from the magnificent trees. Plenty of space to move around and we loved going for a walk to the nearby reservoir and around the property, plus visiting Clunes and Maldon. Thanks for having us Mark and we’ll definitely be back with the extended family.

The Blue Stone Barn Site

This was such a lucky find as it was booked out but a cancellation saw Mark contact me and I believe we had the best spot on the property. Only our second time our camper trailer out and our first time solo and off grid. We had a spot right on the bend of a fresh flowing creek which was beautiful to swim in. Bella our dog had a ball, wondered who were the wooly dogs walking around saying Baaaaa 🤭 Perfect weather, privacy, a toilet by the shearer’s shed (with an option to hire a portaloo which would be great if a few of you) Mark greeted us and our site had a great set up for a campfire. Did I mention the stars at night of wow. Mother Nature tested us on Sunday night with a dust storm, followed by a thunderstorm and rain but all settled and we were back out by the campfire. Late nights with singing by the campfire Great food A drink or two Late mornings Bocci in the sheep paddock (you get used of the poop) 20 minute drive to town to grab some ice and charge my lights and speaker ha ha We can’t wait to bring the family back It certainly ticked every box. Thank you for opening your farm Mark

The Long Hole

Beautiful camping spot! We loved the Long Hole and will definitely be back. The other sites are a good distance from the others so it’s really private. Our own swimming area was nice and cool on a hot day. We hired a portable toilet and were very happy we did. The sheep and cattle were so nice to have around, the cows were super friendly and we enjoyed watching them come down past our site for a drink in the creek. Loved this spot!

Awesome camping spot

The Long Hole

This was our first camping trip and we stayed at site ‘Long Hole’. It was a hot day so we were grateful to have shade from the hot sun. We were next to the water and threw a yabbie net and line in, catching 1 yabbie but unfortunately no fish. We had lots of sheep wandering near us but they just looked at us and kept on walking. There were other campers at the farm, but the sites are well spaced and we had heaps of privacy. The owner Mark drove down to say hello and check if everything was okay which made us feel very welcome. It cooled down at night which was more comfortable in our tent and gazing at the millions of stars was beautiful. We loved our stay and will definitely be back!
