Staying at a great little park. No Bells or whistles, no Kids. Nothing flash but good clean amenities. Never been here before but it feels like you are visiting old friends you have never met. Twin Gums 20 per night or 97 per week

The Hunter freeway from west of Newcastle (near Newcastle link road on F3/M1) to the New England Hwy near Branxton will open tomorrow (Sat. 22nd March). If heading north there is no need to go via Cessnock or through Maitland etc. Will save a lot of frustating traffic and time. Patto.

G'day, Am looking at traveling soon and anticipating that we'll take advantage of the occasional free camping sites along the way. Hence we think we'll need a generator to operate fridge, lights, etc. Have experienced generators (other people's) in the past and the noise can be a tad discouraging....

Poplar CP - if - like me you use www.caravancaravan.com.au then tell them you saw their ad on that site and you pay for 2 days, get your 3rd night free. Also a discount for singles - $25 instead of $28 per night and coffee for $1 as part of the deal.
