At Halls Gap Lakeside Tourist Park, you don’t even need to bring your own tent. It has a number of glamping options that mean you can enjoy the great outdoors and all the comforts of home. The safari tents even have decks complete with barbecues. Plenty of wildlife, from kangaroos to emus, inhabit the park, but it’s also a great base for the many hikes in the Grampians National Park. + hallsgaplakeside.com + parks.vic.gov.au
Set yourself up for a beach adventure at Warrnambool’s Surfside Holiday Park, about an hour from the 12 Apostles on the Great Ocean Road. Campers have access to a camp kitchen, barbecues and a laundry, plus it’s just a short walk to the beach. If you’re visiting in September, you might see some of the final migrating southern right whales at Logans Beach. More marine adventure can be found at Flagstaff Hill Maritime Museum and Village, where you’ll discover why they call this the Shipwreck Coast. + surfsidepark.com.au + flagstaffhill.com
Big 4 Castlemaine Gardens Holiday Park is in a great spot and has both powered and unpowered sites, as well as set-up safari and bell tents you can book. Situated right on Barkers Creek, it overlooks Castlemaine Botanical Gardens and is just a couple of hundred metres from The Mill. This converted woollen mill in the goldfields town is now a hot spot for foodies and vintage lovers. + big4.com.au + millcastlemaine.com.au
