Rosanne Rowe Wellness Adventures Retreat - Stockcamp May 2018

You have delivered a trek that I will hold dear to my heart for a long, long time. Your attention to detail has made my camping experience nothing short of amazing. The stars, the campfire, the cool drinks, the warm face washers in the morning, the amazing food and the WOW of arriving at the Stockcamp. You have all generously shared your time, knowledge and a snippet of your everyday life with me and I thank you for this.

Ainsley McArthur The Big Loop - Hub Hike 2018

We have just returned from the most amazing experience ever “The Stock Camp Trek” on Herbertvale Station. We had four nights at The Stock Camp which was glamping at its finest – spacious Bell Tents, flushing toilet and a hot shower!

Our days were filled trekking and exploring this magnificent part of the world – landscapes, gorges, open plains each and every direction a symphony for the eyes. It was also fascinating to talking to Shelly and Tilly and learning about life on the land. I will now look at a steak on the supermarket shelf a different way – I’ll see the steak and now know the story behind it.

One absolute hands down highlight was walking into The Lost City.
Historians, geologists, scientists, archaeologists and palaeontologists please take a deep breath….. a really really deep breath – It was part of an inland sea and is over 530 million years old. I can barely fathom that number as I say it and then type it! It was jaw dropping awe inspiring to walk amongst a history that was home to the trilobites.

All of the meals were delicious and plentiful. Sunset drinks on our first night was spectacular – beautiful cheese platter and plenty of champagne whilst watching the most magnificent sun set! Our last night’s meal at The Stock Camp was a steak, from Herbertvale Station, cooked on hot plate over a roaring fire. Mouth watering, delicious and a great finale to a wonderful four days!

Thank you Shelly and Tilly for being absolutely fabulous hosts and making the “Stock Camp Trek” and the “Long Lunch” such a memorable experience and one we will all never forget.

Thank you Shelly and girls for an amazing experience. I didn’t really have an expectation – but it has been amazing. Such a vast difference to what I’m used to and the variety of landscapes and experiences has created memories that “our group” will cherish. The attention to details – table clothes, hand towels etc. have added a special touch and the food was truly outstanding. Thank you seems inadequate, it has been AMAZING!!

The first Trek West Big Loop Hike was awesome. Great organisation and attention to detail. The scenery, geology and landscape totally different and interesting. At age 65 it was great to walk The Big Loop Trail and enjoy the great company and the challenge of walking the distance.

A big thanks for an amazing experience, you have delivered beyond expectations. I have really enjoyed the space, the environment, the stillness, the food and the great company. We leave here as a tribe and we met as strangers only a few days ago. Keep up the good work and be proud of what you have created.
