Staying at a great caravan park (I have added it in free or budget sites) in Nanango. Twin Gums is only $20 a night or $97 for a week. We have never been here before but it feels like you are visiting old friends you have never met. This park is just about every thing most here say they wont in a park. No kids, p...

Well, we're finally away next Monday 26th. You'll all know how much there is to do before heading off. We'll make our first camp at Hay and wonder if any GNs will be there for a catch up. We'll be in our Coaster, Priscilla. We want to go up through Bourke and on to Roma as we've not done this route before. As we...

Hi all, wondering if there is any views regarding 13 or 14 ft rear door pop tops. We need to down size and would appreciate opinions. Is dust a problem with the rear door vent? Graham and Pat.

This park is part of the Big 4 but the owners, Jim & Julie, run it in a relaxing manner, they are so friendly & helpful. The park is also dog friendly, no matter what size the dog, as long as it's kept under control. A shade covered pool, an 18 hole putt putt & the caravan sites are large, level &...

Hello, We are planing to travel to Tibboburra and beyond with our new off-road van and would like some suggestions as to how we can protect the van from stone/gravel damage thrown up by the vehicle. When we took our last van to Tibboburra the paintwork was sand blasted and we wouldn't like it to happen a...

Travelling from Tennant Creek down to towards St George area ,looking for suggestions about free camping with fishing, we have a car and camper trailer, no 4wd, no set route got two weeks traveling time..

If this has been suggested before, please don't read it. We don't need too much duplication. I've heard talk of owners efforts to stop the Winegard wandering across the roof of the van during travel. I checked mine and sure enough, the little foot on the antenna had scribed an arc about 100mm or so lon...

yesterday we came to Apollo Bay from Ballarat. Eril drove for half an hour in to Cloac where we stopped for a coffee. Very twisty and windy road the last 50 km. Pajero and 24' Jayco Stirling handled beautifully. Were set up nicely an hour before dark. I have turned the 240v park power off at midday to see ho...
