What customers say
Beautiful rural spot with great views & chilled vibes. Staff are legends, food's decent at the pub. Paddock's are spacious, heaps of chooks & ducks! Facilities are a bit basic, occasional noise, but new owners are making good changes.

Loved our time here. One of our favourites of 2026
Powered grass campervan, tent or trailer tent site
Liked Loved this site. So quiet, just the birds and the sheep. The staff were so friendly and the onsite pub and cafe were fantastic. The toilets and showers were clean. We will definitely be back.
Disliked It’s a four hour drive from home, which means we can go back so often 😢

Powered grass campervan, tent or trailer tent site
Liked friendly staff, choice of pitch as the site was not busy, lovely location within an hour walk of Bellingham, electric hook up and water on the pitch, clean and tidy toilet and shower facilities
Disliked bar / food only open at weekends, so we missed out and had to go off site. Not given any wifi option, so not sure if available or not

Powered grass campervan, tent or trailer tent site
Liked We had the best time at The Boe Rigg! ⛺️🐾
The campsite was lovely and peaceful, and having electric hook-up and water right beside our pitch was so convenient. The toilets and showers were really clean and well looked after, and all of the staff we met were really friendly and welcoming.
It was our first trip with our roof tent and we had such a good experience. The tent was really comfy and our dog absolutely loved his first camping trip too! 🐶
The site itself was really quiet and peaceful — although the neighbouring sheep and cows had other ideas during the night! 😂🐑🐄
We had a brilliant stay and would definitely recommend The Boe Rigg. We can’t wait for our next camping trip!
