Old Macs Farmstay – family friendly in Tasmania

Just minutes out of Launceston, you’ll find Old Macs Caravan & Motorhome Farm Stay. If you’re travelling with the kids, you’ll love this family friendly top spot in Tassie. This expansive spot is popular with campers and there’s good reason. With powered and unpowered sites, picnic tables and pretty views, you can pick a beautiful spot by the tranquil lake and lots of wildlife.

NEW SITE: Alpaca Magic, Sutton, New South Wales

I’ll be straight, this site isn’t budget priced. There are no facilities, adults only – it is self contained RVs only. But you get to camp near alpacas and llamas, and it is super close to Canberra! I visited Alpaca Magic recently and met the owner Glynda (she tells me like the Good Witch of the North, spelling that is.) Knowing my musicals, I guessed she was talking about Wizard of Oz. Her llamas and alpacas certainly thought she was special. Owner Glynda feeds her Alpaca’s Glynda gave us a little tour, there are a variety of paddocks to camp

Corella Creek Country Farmstay, Queensland

Image by Some WIld Ride When you are driving the Flinders Highway, it can be a long time between stops! As you travel between Julia Creek and Richmond, there is an interesting spot to turn off to. When we pulled in in winter 2020, Corella Creek Country Farmstay and cafe had been hard hit by floods and Covid closures. Since then, owner Georgi has made lots of headway. The small bush camping ground also has an additional self contained studio and two budget rooms, hot tub and deck. They pride themselves on recycling – as it is a long way
