I see you have a camper and would be looking for a
campsite but i have found previously that there are plenty of cottages beautifully restored and cost similar to a room in a motel.
Great value for a family i thought , details used to be at the
visitors centre. Might be worth a thought if the weather turns bad.
Have a great trip

Andrew, Might I suggest you stay at
Penrose Park. It's a large
campground (showers and
toilets) with a steam engine for the kids to explore and a bird avery. I believe there is power available if you are so inclined. It is located out on the
Broken Hill,
Silverton Road infact only a few K from
Silverton. Not far away is a walkin
mine the kids will enjoy not to mention the adults. Then of course there id
Broken Hill to explore.

Last time I went to PP it had been taken over by 3 corner jacks. Went to crap when the mines stopped supplying the council with water. Has it changed?

We stayed at the first CP on the right coming into BH from
Cobar. During the night some scumbag stole our diesel jerry can, it would seem there are thieves in the 4WD community as
well

Well mate they are generally crowded cheek to ghoul stuff. I don't like being close to others.
Penrose Park is really nice, peaceful with wide opened spaces. As far as stuff being nicked
well at Penrose I'd be surprised. I've never had stuff taken anywhere but then I don't stay in C' parks either. Give Penrose a go I'm sure you'll like it
