For those seeking the comforts of a holiday home, we provide a variety of high-quality cabin options, ranging from budget-friendly units to spacious deluxe villas, all meticulously cleaned and maintained. We pride ourselves on being a community-focused park, featuring a sparkling swimming pool, a modern camp kitchen, and an on-site shop for those essential supplies. We are also a dedicated pet-friendly park, ensuring that your loyal four-legged companions can join the family on your regional New South Wales journey.
Narrabri is a region defined by its spectacular landscapes and world-class scientific research. From our park, you are just a short drive from the breathtaking Sawn Rocks, the historic Narrabri Gaol, and the fascinating CSIRO Australia Telescope Compact Array. The town centre is conveniently close, offering boutique shopping, excellent cafes, and local services. Whether you are visiting for the annual Show, exploring the vast cotton fields, or simply enjoying a quiet night under the star-filled outback sky, Highway Tourist Village offers the perfect combination of location and comfort.
