Stopped off at Sale for a couple of days on our way through. Lovely place, nice and quiet, even though right on the Princes Hwy, traffic noise was minimal, and we were right next to the road, so can vouch for that. Lots of birdlife, good camp kitchen, clean amenities with reliable shower temperature/...
