The State Centre Caravan Park- Discover the Geographical Heart of NSW in Tottenham

Welcome to The State Centre Caravan Park, a hidden gem nestled in the friendly town of Tottenham, New South Wales. Famously recognised as the town closest to the actual geographical centre of the state, Tottenham offers a unique outback experience that combines quiet solitude with genuine country hospitality. This park serves as the perfect base for travellers looking to escape the hustle and bustle of the coast and immerse themselves in the authentic landscape of the Central West.

The State Centre Caravan Park is designed with the modern nomad in mind, offering a serene environment where the nights are silent and the stars are incredibly bright. Whether you are travelling in a large caravan, a sturdy camper trailer, or simply pitching a tent under the vast Australian sky, you will find our sites spacious and well-maintained. The park is a popular choice for those journeying along “The Bogan Way,” providing a vital rest stop that feels more like a home away from home.

Staying here allows you to support a vibrant local community. Tottenham is a town that prides itself on its resilience and friendliness. Visitors can enjoy a short stroll from the park to the local shops, where a friendly chat is always on the menu. The surrounding region is rich in agricultural history, and a visit to the official “Centre of NSW” cairn just outside of town is a must for any itinerary. It is a place where you can truly slow down, breathe the fresh outback air, and appreciate the rugged beauty of the New South Wales interior.

Our facilities are kept to a high standard of cleanliness, ensuring that your stay is comfortable. We understand that for many travellers, a trip isn’t complete without their four-legged companions, which is why we maintain a pet-friendly policy. From the moment you unhook your rig on our level surfaces to the morning you enjoy a coffee watching the sunrise over the western plains, The State Centre Caravan Park promises a peaceful and memorable stay in the very heart of the state.
