Not sure about staying behind the pub, another option if you are self sufficient is at the Long Water Hole, head down the road on the corner of the big car park, not far out of town. Coordinates are s 22 24 46.4 e 143 03 30.9
This is a free camp, you will find it on WikiCamps
If anyone is in that area around Winton take the time to have a good look at "Bladensberg National Park."
Very spectacular piece of coumtry. Camping at some of the waterholes if they have any water in them.
We were there after rain and some of the roads were a bit iffy.
Opalton to the South is worth a look too. Take plenty of fuel and water, you never know where you will finish up.
Winton is the greatest place in the west if u have the time to explore the area. Leave the van in Winton.
there were vans parked in there last Thurs - there is also a massive parking area on the other side of the road with shade sails just before the Jundah Road

You can also camp behind the Australian Hotel across the street. No charge. Buy a drink or two?? There is water to hook up to and you can use the hotel toilets while the pub is open. The publican is a nice bloke too.
