If you like bush camping with a bit of comfort for the girls, i cannot recommend Mambray Creek highly enough.
Seriously, its only a 2.5 hour drive north of Adelaide, has excellent camping facilities, plenty to do even for the novice, some of the shorter walks provide the best views. We usually head up in the mid year school holidays when the creek that runs right through the camp ground is flowing.
Roo's, Emu's and these huge goanna things are everywhere and will come over for a look, our kids loved it.
Its only a half hour drive to Pt Pirie or Pt Augusta if you want to get some supplies or to take in some local sites etc.
Do some research, you wont be sorry.
