About this park

Birdwood Downs Station is a working farm caravan park on the outskirts of Derby in Western Australia's Kimberley region, making it a convenient first stop for travellers heading east on the Gibb River Road. The property offers a rustic camping experience with the chance to choose your own site among peaceful surroundings, where farm animals—guinea fowl, peacocks and poultry—roam freely. The hosts run a small gift shop on-site. The park suits travellers after a low-key, rural stopover rather than resort-style amenities. Facilities are basic and show their age, so set expectations accordingly. Guest experiences vary notably, so confirm current facility status, laundry availability and any specific requirements directly with the park before arriving.
