Thank you Shelly & Crew for an amazing experience. The landscape, the hikes, and wonderful hospitality. I felt like we were staying with friends. Thank you for going out of your way to cater for our every need and allowing us to share your stunning property. Loved the experience, blisters and all.

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.

Congratulations on hosting your first trek!! It has been fantastic. The landscape has been impressive, the food has been amazing, best of all your attention to detail has blown me away. The washers, linen tablecloths, table decorations etc. The size of the group spot on. Well done and thanks to you Shelly and your fabulous offsiders.

Louise Martin “Macfarlane” Tambo Qld The maiden voyage - The Big Loop Hike 2017

A week of varied activities to keep the mind, body and soul in top condition. The sunrises and sunsets magnificent. The landscape varied and so beautiful. The history of the country quite fascinating and the evidence still seen. Cap all of this with a quite wine around the fire in the evenings and a beautiful meal and delightful company.

Mary Ranclaud Stockcamp Hike July 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.

What a great Trek West it has been! I have ticked the box! 76km of walking, powering on with lovely friends and conversations, so many laughs, good food, spectacular scenery, nice wine, beautiful dinner settings. So exciting! I will never forget The Big Loop. Keep up the excellent work – It’s a winner!

Christine Kirby “Lochington” Springsure Qld The Big Loop - Joys Fitness Hub Hike 2017

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.
