We are heading up to Tin Can Bay from Port Stephens, in a small caravan in June, and looking for suggestions for an overnight stop between Tenterfield and Stanthorpe. Don't need anything flash, but a shower and a place to get a feed and a drink would be a bonus. Otherwise just a nice quiet out-of-the-way...
