Anybody cruising around enjoying our great country, and will be down in the Lower SE-SA area from the middle of next month to the end of May and you want some
free camping, contact me.
My wife and I are heading off for about 6 weeks then and instead of putting our 2
well behaved dogs in a kennel we have decided to see if someone would be interested in camping here and look after them. A bit of what to expect:
Small quiet country town, one great country pub, convienience
shop inc. takeaways and fuel and a
post office.
10 kms to major country town including Woolworths etc.
35 kms to small city with the lot (Bunnings etc.)
50 kms to Coonawarra wine region.
Close to the coast (
Robe,
Beachport, Southend, Carpenter Rocks Pt. MacDonnell).
Adjacent
Canunda National Park. (Would be some of the best sand 4x4 ing in Au.)
Comfortable day trips to
Naracoorte Caves,and in Vic,
Portland,
Port Fairy, Warnambool etc.
You will be able to
camp either in the vacant
well fenced sheltered block we own behind our
home, or put your van in the house yard through the rear access. Your pet welcome. Free electricity.
You can hook onto the rainwater pump (We have 2 x 5000 gal poly tanks) and there is also plenty of good drinkable
bore water to wash your vehicle etc. (we have our own
bore).
You can have access to 2
toilets, bathroom and laundry and outside entertainment area with gas heating.
In return we would like someone who can take the dogs for a walk daily, feed the 3 chooks (yes fresh eggs), feed the goldfish in the fernhouse ponds, and keep an eye on things.
Our small town would perhaps be one of the few left in Aussie where you can go to town and don't have to lock the house, and you can leave your 4x4 parked outside of the pub all night with the keys in the ignition, and its still there the next morning.
Our neighbour has offered to look after things (and would), but we decided to try this perhaps for AFAIK could be the start of something for EO.
Anyone interested contact me- 56.fathoms@gmail.com
