About this space

Set on 25 acres in a quiet and peaceful valley bounded on three sides by the Castlereagh River 8 kms west of Coonabarabran on the road to the Warrumbungle National Park. This is a campground suitable for self contained caravans, camper trailers and tents - limited amenities and power. Great star gazing location as well as numerous bush walking and bird watching locations.

Great location between Coonabarabran (5 to 10 mins) and Siding Springs and the Warrumbungle NP. Plenty of space, with lots to do at the location. Very happy with our stay and thoroughly recommend.
