A Fond Farewell

After many wonderful years, Swallowtail Country Estate and Caravan Park is now officially closed.

Thank you to every camper, adventurer, and family who made this place more than just a campsite — you filled it with laughter, stories around the fire, and unforgettable memories. It’s been a joy to share our little piece of Hogsback paradise with you.

Please note: All existing bookings will still be honoured, but we are no longer accepting new reservations.

With heartfelt gratitude,
The Swallowtail Team
