Hume accom advice.
(Preview)
Hi all, any advice on overnight accommodation along the Hume Hwy between Syd & Vic? We are moving to Tassie with our two cars & a caravan, so will need easy turn & parking access. We can't stay in the van as it will be full stuff. A nice quiet B&B or motel. Any advice would be great.
