Villa Holiday Park: Roma’s Tranquil Oasis with Room to Breathe

Nestled on the northern side of Roma, Villa Holiday Park offers a refreshing and peaceful alternative for travellers exploring the outback. This park has built a fantastic reputation for its spacious, shady, and beautifully maintained grassy sites, providing a true oasis where you can escape the outback dust and heat. Unlike more compact parks, Villa is known for giving its guests ample room to spread out, making it a favourite for those with big rigs or anyone who simply appreciates their own space. The atmosphere is quiet and relaxed, set back from the main highway, ensuring a tranquil stay and a good night’s sleep under the brilliant outback stars. The park’s mature trees provide welcome shade during the day, creating a pleasant environment to relax in your camp chair with a good book.Despite its peaceful setting, Villa Holiday Park is just a few minutes’ drive from the bustling heart of Roma and its key attractions. It serves as an excellent base to discover the story of Australia’s energy industry at The Big Rig, witness the incredible spectacle of the Roma Saleyards, or explore the town’s unique history and heritage buildings. After a day of sightseeing, the park’s saltwater swimming pool is the perfect spot to cool down and unwind. The facilities, including a clean amenities block and a functional camp kitchen, cater to all the essential needs of the modern traveller. With a range of site options and cabin accommodation, Villa Holiday Park is a superb choice for those who value space, shade, and serenity on their outback adventure.
