Nestled in the heart of the historic New England region, Country Road Caravan Park in Uralla offers a tranquil retreat for travellers seeking the perfect blend of rural charm and modern convenience. Situated along the scenic New England Highway, our park serves as an ideal base for exploring the rich heritage, boutique distilleries, and stunning natural landscapes that define this unique part of New South Wales. Whether you are a grey nomad on a long-haul journey, a family seeking a weekend escape, or a solo adventurer, you will find our grounds to be a welcoming sanctuary where the air is crisp and the hospitality is genuine.
Uralla itself is a town steeped in history, famously known as the final haunt of the bushranger Captain Thunderbolt. Visitors can spend hours wandering through the heritage-listed streets, browsing local antique shops, or enjoying a locally brewed ale at the nearby brewery. Our caravan park is designed to complement this relaxed pace of life. We pride ourselves on providing spacious sites that cater to various setups, from large motorhomes and caravans to those who prefer the simplicity of a tent under the stars. The park is meticulously maintained, ensuring that your stay is comfortable from the moment you unhook to the moment you depart.
The New England High Country is renowned for its distinct four seasons, each bringing a new layer of beauty to the landscape. From the vibrant autumn foliage that paints the town in shades of gold and crimson to the refreshing cool breezes of summer, there is never a wrong time to visit. At Country Road Caravan Park, we understand the needs of the modern traveller. Our facilities are curated to ensure you have everything required for a seamless stay, while our proximity to the town centre means you are never far from a gourmet meal or a local coffee shop.
Beyond the park boundaries, the region beckons with spectacular national parks, fossicking sites, and cultural landmarks. We invite you to slow down, breathe in the fresh mountain air, and experience the quiet beauty of Uralla. At Country Road Caravan Park, we aren’t just a place to park your van; we are your home away from home in the high country, where memories are made around the campfire and the stars shine just a little bit brighter.
