Hi all
Is anyone familiar enough with
Katherine to know whether there is anywhere to leave our ute locked away for about a week? It doesn't have to be under cover, but behind a decent fence would be nice.
I've tried a google search for this, but just got non-relevant stuff (motel
parking, etc).
Thanks
John

Perhaps a call to the Chamber of Commerce or Traders Association up there (if there is one) may be able to find you a spot behind a factory, or in a lock up somewhere for a few $

Hi
John
The
Visitor Centre may also have some ideas. If you need contact details for Chamber of Commerce, MM me.

I have stayed at the 'Low Level ' caravan park a couple of times now & found them/staff helpful & obliging why not give them a call. (1800 501 984) I have always felt secure there & I would be surprised if you had any trouble leaving your locked vehicle there for a week or so.

As Motherhen has suggested, I would also try the
visitor centre. They are pretty switched on there.
The low level caravan park is also worth a try as suggested . I have stayed there many times.

We stayed at
Manbulloo Homestead, about 9k out of
Katherine in 2010. If you gave them a call maybe they would be able to help

Thanks, Wayne
I did come across
Manbulloo, but it seemed too far out of town, unless they had a transport/bus service. Didn't happen to see anything along those lines?

Can't recall if there was any bus nearby but plenty of cabs in
Katherine, but then again I am living in Singapore so would only pay $5.00 for a cab ride that distance. Im sure someone would be heading in to town, depending on numbers you might be able to get a lift
good luck
