The Property:
Nestled on the edge of the Australian outback is Gilgooma, a quintessential Australian family farm. Owned and occupied by three generations of farmers, Gilgooma has swung open the farm gate and is taking bookings for an unforgettable experience. Set against the backdrop of rugged bush beauty and sprawling landscapes, Gilgooma offers a unique opportunity to connect with the land and be immersed in the tranquillity and sometimes trials of rural life.
Gilgooma provides a low-impact camping experience on a family-run property, allowing guests to unwind amidst the untouched beauty of the Australian bush. Guests can choose from unpowered and powered sites, or cozy cabin accommodation, each offering a private space under starry skies. From meandering along tranquil creek beds to exploring rugged trails, Gilgooma offers a myriad of activities for guests to create their own adventures.
Visitors can bird watch, stargaze from the shearer's stretchers or embark on self-guided tours to uncover hidden gems within the farm and its surrounding areas. For those seeking a deeper understanding of farm life, personalised farm tours are available, providing an immersive experience alongside the family. Pet and family friendly, Gilgooma offers a rural retreat for a night or a week. Located between Coonamble and Pilliga, Gilgooma is the perfect base for day trips to see the local sights, and also has options to keep you entertained for hours....
About your local community:
While Gilgooma is the name of one of the farms our family lives and works on, it’s also the name of a 'villiage' 35km north of Coonamble. The village of Gilgooma used to boast a school, sawmill, tennis courts, cricket oval, church and Sunday school. There were regular get-togethers and thriving community which included our ancestors.
Today, just a couple of houses and the Soldier’s Memorial Gates remain.
