1 night at YARRALLA on the Marthaguy

Fantastic spot off the highway. Nice and quiet for an overnight stop. Hosts were lovely! The free firewood was an added bonus and much appreciated. We will be back next time we travel through. Thanks!!

Great stop over on our way to Lightening Ridge. Camp up off the main road, kids could run free and kick the ball around in the paddock. Can have a fire. Lovely hosts, even brought some lovely fresh eggs for the trip.

1 night at YARRALLA on the Marthaguy

Perfect little overnight stop for our travels, very easy to find and nice and flat for a caravan. Hosts were exceptional, provided fire wood, created a walking track and great conversation. I would 100% come back, thoroughly enjoyed. Would be perfect in summer also. Thank you!

Graham is a nice person. I enjoyed my stay and highly recommend. Mind blowing Sunset view. Close to Coonabarabran and good quality service/facilities.

What a great stop over spot at Yaralla on the Mathaguy, nice and peaceful spot with a good undercover camp kitchen, bonus was the quirky shower

1 night at YARRALLA on the Marthaguy

Great spot for an over nighter or a place to base your self to visit the area. The camp area is well maintained with flat ground- we didn’t need to unhitch the van for our over night stay. The camp areas are well setup with fire lighting supplies, fire wood and fire pits. There is a shelter and picnic table also which was perfect for us when the rain came over. Hot shower also available if you needed. Hosts were super welcoming and told us of future plans for a couple of outdoor baths which would be amazing! Would highly recommend on your way through the area.

Weekend Trip to YARRALLA on the Marthaguy

What a great tranquil spot provided by Peter & Sally. Plenty of flat open space with the best shelter with a gorgeous redwood & resin picnic table, with facilities only to be added to in the future were told. Excellent value, hope to return someday

1 night at Black Gate Distillery

Genise was very responsive and helpful in the booking and lead up to our stay at the Black Gate Distillery, and Brian was there to help us out on arrival. The amenities were in great condition, and the distillery and surrounds were very interesting to camp amongst. We enjoyed having a campfire, and enjoyed our stay in general. Thank you.

3 nights at Maalaabidi Naturist Farm Stay

My husband and I stayed at Dingo den cabin at Maalabidi for 3 nights and I could tell this was one of the most beautiful experience we had in a long time. We definitely didn't feel like leaving this beautiful place and warm company of Graham and Janice who made this extremely special for us . We had a perfect time - Stunning vistas, in the middle of a little forest, very close to town, completely dark surroundings which makes it perfect to enjoy the gorgeous night sky, waking up to gorgeous sunrise, having open hot shower right under the milky way , native trees and lot of wildlife around, sitting by the campfire at under the stunning star studded sky and sharing stories with Graham - was an experience we would never forget. The cabin itself was super comfy with a nice kitchenette and fridge and a quite a well stocked kitchen just few steps away in the big shed. Don't miss the coffee at Grahams bar! We felt extremely privileged to listen to the super talented Graham beautifully play the didgeridoo and violin for us. Hard to come across someone so beautiful and creative like him - such a great musician ( he has got a a band), a pilot, with depth of knowledge about Aboriginal culture, practices, love for nature and protecting the environment...someone so full of wisdom. One should definitely spend some time and slowly experience this place. During the day, we did hikes at Warrumbungles, visited Piliga forest, Siding spring observatory and explored the lovely Coonabaraban town.

1 night at Black Gate Distillery

We had a fantastic stay. It was great to find the amenities clean, tidy and with hot water. The site was flat and we had a decent camp fire pit right next to where we set up. We pre- booked into a distillery tour and spent our time with Genise, who was the perfect host. We learnt the ins and outs of the distillery, how they came to be in the industry and had a fabulous time tasting the excellent quality whisky and rum. Included was a platter with the most delicious locally produced cheese. Definitely worth a visit. One tip is camp towards the rear of the site as there can be a bit of road noise in the morning. But that did not bother us at all.

1 night at YARRALLA on the Marthaguy

Perfect place for overnight stopover. Just far enough from the main road for a peaceful night.

1 night at Warrumbungles Mtn Motel Campground

Nice quiet campground with rubbish bins provided. Bush surroundings.

Weekend Trip to Black Gate Distillery

I had the best experience on this property! Location was great, facilities were immaculate and the added bonus of having the distillery on site to participate in a tasting was a fun addition to our trip! Genise & Brian thanks so much for having us, it was such a wonderful experience and your hospitality was spectacular!
