A unique and easy camping/caravan accommodation option for attendees to events in the Hunter Valley.

Dashville is a secluded bushland venue and campground located at Belford, just across from Pokolbin, 15mins from Bimbadgen and 20mins from Hope Estate with simple access from Sydney via the new Hunter Expressway.

The basic run down is below, please read through these points carefully, contact details are below if anything is unclear, or your date is not listed.

PLEASE NOTE: Tent hire is an add-on to your accommodation tickets. Fri/Saturday or Saturday only tickets must be purchased PER PERSON.

STEP BY STEP BOOKING PROCESS

We can appreciate that it might be a little confusing to use this booking platform as its based on event ticketing not accommodation, but reading through the below may help you streamline the process. (We promise this will be the hardest thing about the whole experience..)

1. First select duration of stay. You can stay up to 3 nights. (Breakfast is included with each nights stay, except Sunday night.)

2. Decide if you'd like tent hire or you're happy to BYO camping equipment. (Remembering you can bring whatever camping/caravanning set up that suits your requirements.)

3. If selecting tent hire, you've got either the big 5m Bell(4p), or the 2.5m Dome(2p). Tents are one off cost regardless of length of stay.

4. If you booked tent hire you can choose whether you want us to supply you with linen by selecting LINEN PACK(per person)

5. Bus travel is for concert goers, its a one off fee to take you to concert and bring you back $22. We suggest you book this, as its the most convenient method of getting in and out of the concert regardless of whether you like to sip on the vino or not.

6. If you're coming in on Friday night, consider taking up the FRIDAY NIGHT DINNER OPTION, generally BBQ steak and 3 salad, we're pretty flexible with times generally serving up until 10pm. Although it can be purchased on arrival, it helps us with catering requirements if we know in advance :-)

GENERAL POINTS:

• If arriving Friday, anytime after 2pm is fine. If its Saturday, anytime from 9am is fine. Saturday's we're usually serving breakfast until 11am, so come check in at the restaurant.

• On Friday nights, often we will have complimentary live entertainment, licensed bar and dinner available. Friday night activities are numbers dependant and confirmed via email before your arrival.

•  On arrival, you can choose your own space/site to set up camp, whether it be a caravan, tent, camper, whatever. There's no space restrictions. Everything is charged per person so this allows freedom for you to set up however, wherever. 

• Children under 12 are free to camp (child meal options are available at the onsite restaurant.)

• Campsites are unpowered. Though you can purchase a powered site as an optional add on.

• We have hot showers and flushing toilets available around the clock, with 24hr access to 240v power in this area.

• Each night you stay we include a cooked breakfast the following day.(except Sunday night/Monday mornings) This takes the hassle out of bringing all the cooking gear, and on these glorious mornings waking up in the bush, there's nothing better than slowly easing into the day, whilst someone prepares you a tasty breakfast.

• The shuttle bus to and from Dashville is the best way to get to the concert. Return service is a once off charge of $25. It departs Dashville 20mins before concert gates open times and returns you to Dashville immediately after the show. Just make sure you are aware of the particular event running times if catching the bus. We generally send out a breif email before your stay to give you any information like this as its available.
