Tent
With pets
My husband followed a storm the entire way home. I ended up booking him a last minute stop on Wayne’s property for him to pull into away from the road side and to be able to have a slower start the next morning. Aka let the rooftop tent dry out.
Wayne collected an entire stack of fire wood for my husbands late arrival, he was beyond stoked. (Thanks so much for this).
The site was beautiful, our dog loved running through the river to cool off. Will absolutely be adding this stop to future drives.

Beautiful little homestead and ranch. My partner and I stayed in our van and it was very easy to get there, they were very accommodating about our late arrival and showed us around. Very clean amenities and lovely little kitchen that we used for dinner and breakfast. Definitely the go if you're passing though or wanting to stay near Tamworth for a few days.
