caravan park

Unfortunately it is sometimes not the case Peter, we had a very bad experience at the park in Dubbo beside the bridge in the centre of town a few years ago.
Also very noisy due to the main road traffic and the carousing locals in the park beside the river, the latter were part of the reason we vowed to never stay there again despite a few visits over the years and passing through every year.
Apart from the night noises of the wildlife the one near the zoo is supposed to be ok.

Yep that one is a bit of a problem.

We had no problems at the Dubbo City Caravan Park which is on the Newell Hwy with really good facilities and very clean - recommended.

There is another CP out among the car sales yards, etc, we have not stayed there and it is a very narrow entrance but I think it opens out onto the river at the back end.

The park out near the car yards is called the mid city caravan park.
I stayed a night there last year. Seemed ok. Clean facilities etc.. is a bit tight getting in through the onsite cabins though. A big van would be tight squeeze.

That sounds like it !!
Just couldn't remember, and don't have my CAW book with me.

Gets a bit crowded as it is only a small area.Toilets only. A nice quiet alternative to Dubbo. We stayed a few days to see the Zoo and Dubbo because the parks in town looked too noisy for us. We left the caravan in safety for the day trips. A local considered this a 'safer' alternative to any of the in town parks.

A really nice park with huge grassy sites.

If you don't need to be IN Dubbo, either Wellington Caves or Peak Hill are good choices.

Greetings, Dunedoo is on our return list, quite, all the facilities I want, easy access, easy to arrive/leave early/late. WD

I have stayed in that park on three occasions over 2 years recently and on all occasions there have been major thefts occur. Granted it is a nice park but if you are using a camper trailer or the wind up top caravan such as a Jayco Swan type van the security is a bit of a problem, the canvas sides affording no security against these sods. The offenders come across the park behind the van park and jump the fence. Lap tops, expensive cameras, handbags and wallets as well as anything else of value including car keys etc have been stolen during the middle of the night while the vans occupants were sleeping.
If you do stay in any of the parks close in to Dubbo be sure your valuables are under your pillow or under your bed so that they have to get you out of bed to get to them. No problems with full vans and poptops as far as I know.

This is personal experience, not second hand information

Hi Wilco, read my follow up to Angus above. That is the true picture there.
I must admit that nothing was stolen from me but on all three occasions people directly behind me in the types of vans I mentioned were victims with the police being called in to get a full report of the incident. I saw this. It was not something I heard about.
But as I said, a nice park if you have a full van or perhaps a pop top.
Regards,
Bruce.
