We loved staying out of town at Temple Bar nine kilometres along Ilparpa Road. Nearby Wanngardi was closed at the time but reopened subsequent to our visit. Temple Bar would still be my choice, further away from the road, and against the range. Both of these have only a limited number of sites. Both allow pets.
When we were there, amenities were not brilliant but it was priced cheaply. Improvements have since been made, and price for powered site was $23 last year, with 7 days for price or 6 offer. Power is metered so you only pay for what you use; this worked out very cheap for us. Owners were great.
So for secure park (quite safe that far out of town and there are a number of permanent and semi permanent workers there so we felt part of a village with good neighbours), favourable price compared to those parks in town, and in a lovely location, Temple Bar wins the trifecta.

Thanks for the recommendations, Motherhen. We tried to book at Temple Bar, but they don't take bookings. Ring up at 7am and they'll tell you what they have available, no guarantees in peak season which is when we'll be there. That doesn't work for us.
We booked at Wanngardi.
