G'day Geoff, can't remember the name of it, but we stayed in the van park right next to the Lightning Ridge Hotel Motel two years ago. It was clean & tidy & well looked after. The ground was hard as hell & made it a bit difficult to get our annexe pegs in though ! The pub offered great meals at reasonable prices & had a huge big open fire, friendly staff & a great atmosphere. Loved the place, we stayed just short of a week. Enjoy your trip.

The Lightning Ridge Hotel/Motel was fine a couple of years ago when we were there.

Try this ste for reviews.

Geoff, we stayed in Lightning Ridge last July and at the park on the property. We thought that the ones in town, whilst pretty convenient were quite crowded with even vans parked in the entrance driveway in one instance. Plenty of room out of town. The hot baths were always crowded and as we dont like scrubbling around in the dirt thought that two nights or was it three nights were long enough but we do own a new set of opal earrings.

enjoy your trip
