Plenty of shade and good sites. Still $5 per vehicle per night. The council should be commended for setting up this campground.

A lovely green and shady location, not sure how solar would manage. There are site numbers, and they are rather large sites. Some road noise but a grest wine region to be explored. We will return.

Excellent spot. Only problem was a family in a caravan that we’re living there and they run they’re generator all night. Looked like they’d been living there for a while.

Plenty of shady, spacious sites (actually numbered). The toilet was very clean. Close walking distance to cellar door/brewery, with very tasty meals at lunchtime. Very reasonable cost at $5 pvpn (honesty envelope system). Please be honest and contribute.
