A LIFESTYLE CHANGE - PART TWOThe advice from Police was for further progress by four-wheel-drive vehicles only... and here we were on public roads, a highway, nonetheless. It was all right for us and for many others but must have been a problem to several who were in ordinary cars. Our three-month-ol...

Found this lovely farm that produces home made food eg yummy scones, cheesecake, cheese and bacon tear parts and more. Grow olives and Muntries which are a native berry that is grown to SA. You can get your mobile home and caravans in there if you want to stop and have morning tea. Prices are really r...

Checking over my poptop just prior to commencing a trip down south a few months ago I was happy with the condition of the wheel bearings, springs, and tyres, well the inspection of the tyres involved taking each one off and checking the tread depth and the wall condition, on both sides, somewhat surpri...

A LIFESTYLE CHANGEWe were tired. An overnight trip on the Spirit of Tasmania II had provided only limited sleep. That was due to the people in the next cabin seemingly partying on until after 2:00am... and a partner who said No, leave it be, don't cause problems. Morning arrived, we were off the ship, h...

I would thoroughly recommend this CP. It is quiet, peaceful, well set out and clean. There is a lovely lawned area where all the vans etc are lined up around in a semi circle kind of configuration, beautiful creek walks, and the BBQ area is something very different. Saturday night a huge fire pit is set g...

We have just purchased a caravan shade annex from Campshades (Julie Dunkley), service is excellent, she is very precise regarding measurments and the finished product is A1.

Bread cobs, buns, and cakes baked daily, open 7 days, has petrol and diesel. Great little CP beside the je...

We contacted the H...
