The Back Road Van is a 22 foot Viscount Supreme caravan. Sitting on a 7 acre property in the beautiful Markwell Valley, and only a 7 minute drive from the village of Bulahdelah. (Note : 5kms of sealed road and 2kms of unsealed gravel road from town - suitable for all vehicles.)  The van is decorated to reflect the retro 70s style. Inside it features a ‘cosy’ double bed, with linen provided; a lounge area; plus a small galley kitchen, that includes a toaster, kettle, bar fridge, microwave and a 2 burner electric stove top. There are also added extras such as a selection of teas, coffee with plunger, milk and local free range eggs. (Note : the van does not have a plumbed water supply, but plenty of fresh water is provided. ) The van is covered by a large shelter - including an open seating area with lounge; table and chairs, a breakfast bar; and small gas BBQ. There is a fire pit which can be used in Winter and Autumn and when fire restrictions allow. It also has its own separate bathroom, with shower, toilet and wash basin. Towels are supplied.  Pets are welcome, but we do ask that they be kept on a leash to protect local wildlife.The Back Road Van is 7 minute drive to Bulahdelah shops where you have a well stocked IGA, butcher, baker, pub, bottle shop, cafes and gift shops. We are a 30 minute drive to Tea Gardens, 35 minutes to Hawks Nest, a 40 minute drive to Seal Rocks, and approximately a 1 hour drive to Forster, Taree and Gloucester.

Highly recommend, we’ll be back!
We highly recommend The Back Road Van, we’ll definitely be back! We stayed for the night in October 2024 for a BBQ dinner and drinks by the fire. We had our nine year old large dog with us, and the stay couldn’t have been easier with him in the van. Pete and Margot had every facility or amenity during our stay set up so well - Pete even set up the fire before we arrived so it was immediately ready for an easy and relaxing evening. Pete was really welcoming when we arrived too which made us feel right at home!

What a little Gem.....
I had such a wonderful weekend at the Back Road Van. The Hosts were great and very helpful and we had every privacy during our stay. The Van is adorable and everything has been thought of and it was a truly enjoyable stay. The shower is amazing as a small side note... I will definitely be a return visitor...

We loved our glamping with Pete and Margot. Everything was beautifully presented. Everything that we needed was there. Very clean and quiet spot to getaway from Sydney’s chaos. We will definitely be coming back to here!

By far the best accommodation we have ever been to! The hospitality was amazing and so well thought out. From having a spare toothbrush, shower cap, alongside complimentary bread, milk and eggs, The Van was very well equipped for everything you would need for a stay. We only stayed for one night, but could’ve easily stayed for more and we will definitely be coming back!
