My stay at Rose Bay Caravan Park was thoroughly enjoyable. Although the park is small, it's recently been taken over by friendly and helpful hosts who are in the process of revitalizing it. The park's location is ideal, with the beautiful scenic walks close by and a fabulous cafe. Additionally, the facilities are good and guests can cool off in the magnesium pool.

We recently stayed at this caravan park for our very first caravaning trip, and it couldn’t have been a better introduction! The owners were incredibly welcoming and helpful, which made us feel right at home from the start. The amenities were spotless and well-maintained, and the on-site coffee shop was a lovely surprise—great coffee and delicious health food options that we really appreciated. Even though the owners have only recently taken over and are still putting their personal touch on the park, it already has a fantastic atmosphere and everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a friendly, clean, and relaxing place to stay. We’ll definitely be back!
