Newcastle to Bulahdelah
Looking for something beyond the usual Newcastle day trip? Bulahdelah Clydesdales sits just 2.5 hours north on the Pacific Highway — an easy drive that delivers something genuinely rare: a hands-on afternoon with working Clydesdale horses on a real farm.
This isn't a tourist park or a petting zoo. It's a working property with over 30 years of Clydesdale history, where your group gets up close with some of Australia's most impressive draught horses — watching them work, handling the harness, and meeting each horse face to face.
Perfect for social groups, work teams, family reunions, sporting clubs, or any gathering of adults looking for a memorable day out from Newcastle.
Your Day Out — The Route
Head north on the Pacific Highway. Smooth drive, great scenery through the Hunter and Manning regions.
Grab a coffee and stretch your legs at the Tourist Information Centre. Don't miss the famous Bulahdelah Bakery — a local institution.
Just a few minutes from town and you're on the property. Undercover seating and easy parking for coaches and cars.
Meet the horses, watch them work, handle the harness, feed, photograph and interact. A full, hands-on experience.
What Happens on the Day
Settle in under cover and get introduced to our Clydesdales — Dusty May, Hercules, Jax, and Murphy. Each horse has their own character.
Watch the horses perform real farm work. See Clydesdale power and precision in action — not a rehearsed show, but genuine working horses.
Touch and handle authentic leather collars, hames, and traces. Learn the history and function of traditional heavy horse harness.
Get right in close. Hand-feed the horses, take as many photos as you like, and enjoy time alongside these magnificent animals.
Ask anything. Our hosts share over three decades of Clydesdale knowledge — from breeding and history to daily care and working traditions.
