It was my first camping in Australia, and it will surely be one of my most memorable. Every corner of Piliga Pottery is incredibly beautiful, peaceful, and full of character. Maria, her family, and the staff made me feel so welcome — their kindness and warmth truly made this place feel like home. It was a special experience I will always cherish. I def recommend this place and would love to return one day.

Nice place by the river. Not too far from Narrabri and well kept. The addition of cameras and warning signs stating you’re under surveillance though is a deal breaker.
