Mortlake Caravan Park
Permalink  

Stayed recently at Mortlake Caravan Park in South West Victoria. Nice, level grassed sites, both powered and unpowered. Paul, caretaker is nice guy and helpful. $27 per night powered, less seniors discount of $3. Showers, toilets, tap water, dump, laundry, kitchen facilities a bit old fashioned but clean. Five minute stroll into township, two pubs for pub meals, couple of day time cafes. Only 40Km from Warrnambool so good place to stop enroute without paying the higher costs in the 'bool. It's not me in the pic, flogged it off their FB page

I have stayed there, nice little park, clean amenities etc. Walk to town, great pizza shop sort of opposite on the highway.

Nice town as well - drove through recently, looks quite nice.

The Olivine Capital of Australia - peridot if you are a Leo.

 Just in case you are interested   ...

 

 

Olivine

The mineral olivine is a magnesium iron silicate with the formula (Mg², Fe²)SiO. Thus it is a type of nesosilicate or orthosilicate. It is a common mineral in Earth's subsurface but weathers quickly on the surface. Wikipedia
 
Mohs scale hardness: 6.57
Crystal system: Orthorhombic
Crystal habit: Massive to granular
Optical properties: Biaxial (+)
Formula (repeating unit): (Mg, Fe)2SiO4
Cleavage: Poor    (Interesting  ... if you are into cleavage)
 
 
Have made a note of Mortlake for the next time we are down that way.  Thanks

Wonderful little park. The pot belly in the kitchen is a beauty. Would stay again.
