Quaint caravan site
Good site, but a little squeezed together. Very much, first come, first served. Very clean and tidy amenities, if a little outdated.

Dog friendly camping. Happy Easter!
Such a great spot. Beautiful views of the paddocks, we set up so we could watch the horses all day. Decent facilities as far as campsites go, access to power to inflate our mattress, a kettle, toaster and microwave too, although we didn’t use it these could be handy if you have young children. Easy to get to and only half an hour up the road to stunning Shoal Bay. Loved it, thanks for having us Kelly!
