It's the experience as much as the place

You stay on private land, such as a farm, vineyard or lifestyle block, with a local host, instead of a crowded campground or a busy freedom camping spot.

Some places have a single site; others have a few, and everyone gets more room and quiet than a holiday park. Some hosts will join you for a cuppa or a chat at the end of the day. Others leave you to it, with tips on the walk, swimming hole or fishing spot down the road that no guidebook mentions.

Plenty of guests arrive as strangers and leave as friends.

  • Room to breathe Farms, vineyards and gardens instead of rows of vans. Wake up to birdsong and a view.
  • A local who knows Hosts share the walk worth doing, the swimming hole and the cafe with live music. Some even introduce you to Garth the pig.
  • Something extra Fresh eggs and fruit at the gate, a cellar-door tasting, a farm tour, a meal with your host, or just a safe, private place to stay the night. Each place offers something different.

How Campable works

  1. Find a place Search by town or region, or plan a whole road trip. Every listing shows photos, reviews and the house rules.
  2. Book Some places confirm straight away. Others ask the host first, and you're only charged when they say yes.
  3. Stay Your arrival details come once you're booked, and they work offline for when there's no signal.
