Very convenient
Conveniently located next to the highway. This of course means some highway noise but that didn’t bother us. Also near the train line. Peter was very helpful and welcoming and kindly refunded the wood I didn’t need as it was warm. Appreciated my dog could run in the paddock.

Just right for a quick stopover
We needed a quick layover with power near good roads and this fitted that brief perfectly. Peter was waiting for us in spite of our late arrival and showed us our spot. In the morning we could see we were in a pleasant flat field with a pond, perfect for taking breakfast. Our hosts Peter and Nadine, gave us helpful advice about the scenic route into Port Macquarie our next stop.

Quick stop over
Great open space, close to the highway. Peter very helpful showing us to our space. We had a powered site, which also had access to water if we needed it.

Avoid!
When we booked I sent a message saying we’d arrive between 5-5:30, then when I was 15 minutes away I sent them another message and another when I arrived. I wasn’t able to ring as I don’t have an Australian sim so after waiting 10 minutes where we’d been told to, we went to the house. The lady was very unimpressed to see us and the man (having told us we were in the wrong place and we should have rang) pointed us vaguely in the direction of a tree. The ground wasn’t flat and where he sent us to park up was about 20 metres from a train track (which was exceptionally loud) and 200 or so metres from the motorway (also very loud!)
