Dog stuff

We have stayed there 18mths ago and are f ull of praise for it. In fact I was talking to Ralfe & Coralie (The owners) about franchising the concept and opening up all around Aust. I feel there is a need for it all over this land.

The kennels are the best, they offer the lonely pooch a video to watch as well as a couch to lie on and carpeted floors.

The cabins (in fact any type of site) can be fenced to allow your pooch free range within those bounds as well a exercise areas off leash.

The surrounding area in spectacular also.

I gave it 5+ Paws.(and the dog gave it 5 woofs) Easily the best thing for people with Fur kids.

Hey Kimprado

This seems like a good idea, perhaps there is a market for franchise out there.

If there were a few more around the country, People can stay in these park with the dog, without having to worry, they could leave there dogs there for the day and visit a National Park and not have to worry.

If it keeps dogs out of National Parks and allowing people to go on holidays and take the dog with them, Its got my vote.

Cheers Steve.

Had a look at the site - what a fantastic idea - why don't all caravan parks provide something similar. An area like this with all the grey nomads on the road with their pets (like us) would happily pay for the priviledge of using this facility.

Agree that they should franchise the concept. It amazes me how much of a huge (and growing) market non pet parks miss out on.

I wonder how many more there are around the country, I know that there is holiday homes in Kendenup, in the south of WA, that are set up for your furry friend and I have a recollection that there is a caravan park down near Busselton which has similar set up, I am not sure on that one as I have only heard of it.

Certainly a great idea and one that I would support with our three legged furry friend.

Cheers

We were in the Tarra Valley last weekend at Fernhlme Caravan Park which is about 2kms down the road from Bestfriend. We dropped in and had a look - seems a great place.....although you can also take your dog to Fernholme, which is an excellent place to stay. The Tarra Valley and Tarra-Bulga NP are an excellent place - easy day trip from Melbourne too.
