Facilities
Our camp has great facilities including a spacious dining hall, two meeting halls, children's playground, a lake and outdoor seating areas set amongst native bush plus three all-purpose riding arenas and a dressage arena.
Camp Buildings
The most recent building project at the Ranch was the upgrade of our main camp building.
Within the walls of the new building there are three large rooms plus the main offices and conservatory.
Groups can hire out the Conference Room which is perfect for speakers or coming together for times of worship and discussion.
There is also a Recreation Room set up for indoor activities during the dark and wet winter nights.
Situated on the north-facing side of the building there is a large Dining Room with fire place and servery, perfect to serve meals in the adjacent fully functional kitchen and clean up in the dishwasher room.
Riding Facilities
Sonshine Ranch has an expansive range of riding facilities.
There is a large open stable and yards to accommodate the horses during riding times, making it a hands on approach for learning to ride from brushing and tacking up to preparing the horses for their paddock post ride.
Riding is done in the three full-sized all purpose arenas and a 20x40 dressage arena. This gives those in riding lessons the chance to learn the fundamentals of riding as well as dressage basics, show jumping and mounted games.
During the summer months, grass areas are available for riding, offering the perfect environment for riders to gain confidence, enhance their skills in open spaces, and tackle cross-country jumps across the Ranch’s two specially designed cross-country courses.
Throughout the year, riders can enjoy treks along the farm tracks that loop around and through the property. The renowned “Gully Track” offers a chance to ride beyond the arena and experience a greater sense of freedom and adventure. In summer, riders can also venture through bush tracks, where careful navigation enhances riding ability and encourages confidence in a range of terrain.
