This was so successful this year that we are hoping to offer 2 camps next summer.

The combination of horsemanship and drama worked well and with all the other activities and picnics the participants, laughed, made new friends, ate everything on their plates and slept like babies. What more could parents wish for?

The duration was 7 days, cost about $1000 and included everything. Next year we are hoping to organise a bus from Sydney to Chesleigh to save that trip.

Without obligation, please register an interest now via our contact page, so we can contact you closer to the time.

Weekends anytime

You will arrive to the warmth of the glowing lights of Chesleigh. After a supper of chunky farmhouse soup, crusty homemade bread, pate and other sustaining goodies, the evening is yours for challenges in our games room, an unwind with a glass of red by our evening campfire, or simply to fade away to the comfort of your comfy bed with its feather doona.

Next morning the beauty of Chesleigh reveals itself and after a hearty country breakfast, there is horse riding on offer, exploring the local area, a game of tennis or a bracing walk on one of the many walking trails Chesleigh has to offer. After a delicious lunch, an afternoon nap might be in order, or a soak in the hot spa, or maybe both! If you are the adventurous type, you might like to pan for gold in one of our creeks or head for the hills to take in some wildlife or just to breathe our sweet fresh air.

People usually reassemble by one of those fires for a pre dinner tipple before the famous Chesleigh Saturday night dinner followed by entertainment by Mike Cody, the well known local performance poet.

After another blissful night's sleep and great country breakfast, the morning is for more horse adventures, perhaps a game of bocce on the lawn, a catch up on the book you meant to read, a clamber to one of the lookouts on the property, or ZZZ.

The Chesleigh Sunday BBQ is famous and has photos taken to all parts of the world (it tastes delicious too).

People reluctantly head towards home sometime in the afternoon, having had a magic weekend.
