1. Bluelilies, NSW
Nestled at the apex of the pristine Colo Valley, you will find ‘Bluelilies’, so named because of the spectacular blue waterlilies blooming on our lagoon. The property is ecofriendly (so leave no footprint!) surrounded on three sides by Wollemi National Park, site of the discovery of the Wollemi Pine, the ‘Living Dinosaur’.
Bring your kayaks, fishing gear and dogs to enjoy your holiday with you. The Colo River is 5 minute drive.
View Property2. The Rustic Resort, QLD
The owners affectionately call their property "The Rustic Resort". This is a tribute to the rusty water tanks and dilapidated animal shelters that were left behind when we moved in. Our farm was part of a thriving rural property in the 1920's. It used to have large banana plantations, passionfruit trellises, a diary, a piggery, and chickens.
Dog-friendly and composting toilet available. 2WD access but 4WD access in wet weather or if towing a van.
There are plenty of good sites for camping trailers, small RVs and tents.
View Property3. Iron Brook Donkey Farm, VIC
This property boasts rolling hills of mountain pasture, backing on to the Yarra State Forest. Bushwalk along the little creek among tall trees and majestic tree ferns, or just sit in a deck chair and take in the exquisite views at the top of the hill.
The donkey farm is situated conveniently, halfway between the popular redwood forest, and the giant Ada tree walk. Just chill in your own time, or book an activity or a donkey ride.
View Property4. Bolinda Vale Farm, WA
Located in the foothills of the Darling Range in Keysbrook Western Australia, this is a family run beef & sheep farm that has been in the same family since 1926.
The owners offer two campsites right on the banks of the Dirk Brook. To get to the campsites there's a creek crossing & farm track.
Sheep & cattle graze the hill country & it's a stunning location. Red-tailed cockatoos flock to the gully feeding on redgum trees plus many other birds, the resident wedgetail eagles soar above making the most of the thermals created from the hills, also you'll see the local kangaroos if you’re lucky.
Dogs are welcome but must remain on leads at ALL times as this is a working cattle/sheep farm. You MUST bring your own camping toilet and leave no trace.
