Welcome to the Gwydir Thermal Pools Motel & Caravanpark, a premier wellness and travel destination located in the heart of Moree, New South Wales. Renowned as the “Artesian Capital of Australia,” Moree is famous for its therapeutic, mineral-rich thermal waters that rise from the Great Artesian Basin. Our park offers a unique and restorative experience, featuring five on-site thermal pools ranging in temperature to suit your personal comfort. Whether you are a weary traveller seeking relief for tired muscles or a holidaymaker looking for a relaxing health retreat, our park provides the perfect sanctuary in the rich agricultural plains of the Gwydir Valley.
Our facility is one of the most comprehensive in regional New South Wales, offering a diverse array of accommodation to cater to every preference. We provide spacious, level powered sites designed for large caravans and motorhomes, alongside unpowered camping areas for those seeking a traditional outdoor experience. For guests who prefer the comforts of home, we offer modern motel rooms, self-contained villas, and cosy cabins, all maintained to the highest standards of cleanliness. The hallmark of a stay with us is the unlimited access to our private artesian soaking pools, allowing you to enjoy the legendary benefits of Moree’s natural spring waters without ever having to leave the park grounds.
Moree is a region of immense scale and agricultural significance, but it is the warmth of the people and the water that truly defines a visit here. From the Gwydir Thermal Pools Motel & Caravanpark, you are ideally positioned to explore the historic town centre, visit the Moree Plains Gallery, or take a tour of the vast cotton gins and pecan nut farms that dot the landscape. We are a pet-friendly park, welcoming your four-legged companions on our caravan sites so that your entire family can enjoy the journey together. Whether you are here for a single night stopover or a month-long winter escape, our team is dedicated to providing friendly service and a peaceful environment. Rejuvenate your spirit, soak in the minerals, and discover the authentic hospitality of the North West at the Gwydir Thermal Pools. We look forward to welcoming you to your home away from home.
