What a delightful find, a real Hidden Treasure! A delightful little opportunity (thrift) shop. Really good quality items, at reasonable prices. Lovely staff (volunteers?) and a great selection for all the family. I purchased some games (all pieces intact and checked) for the grandchildren, and a lovely long line cardigan for myself.

This shop is exquisite in the range of goods they have, beautiful verses with fantastic pictures behind them, inspirational sayings, decor to adorn your home, I bought a lovely photo frame with a wood cut out of I love You across the top, a perfect gift. They also had wind chimes, keytags, pottery and china, the range was staggering. Well worth a look if you are searching for a gift and are in the area. They also have a shop at Caloundra, in the Stockland Shopping Centre.

WOW! as you walk in you are amazed at 4 metal sculptures, two really large ones, and two smaller ones, using odd things like bicycle chains, nuts bolts, almost any kind of metal from the garage or work shop... they are phenomenal. There are also wooden sculptures, paintings, candles and soap.....spent quite a while just admiring the variety of art work.

This review is for Valla Beach Tourist Park, Valla Beach NSW

This Tourist Park provides Villa's and cabins which are serviced and not serviced, situated 30mins from Coffs Harbour and 10 mins away from Nambucca Heads on a tidal lagoon. There is lots to do in the area, we spent a day in Coffs, and a day at Nambucca Heads. The Park has 2 swimming pools, boat ramp, gymnasium and kayak hire, a small shop on the grounds for essentials, also a convention centre and a wool-shed themed bar. We were staying in the relocatable section I was amazed at the facilities made available for permanent residents, they have the use of an area for a weekly craft group, there is also a residents newsletter and social gatherings on a regular basis.

This review is for Golden Guitar, Tamworth NSW

Fantastic Country Music themed shop. Had a photo by the Golden Guitar, cafe was clean and had a reasonably priced menu, very clean rest rooms. There is a wax museum of Country Music stars which was fantastic to look at.... there is also a cricket museum under construction with some interesting memorabilia and posters. Excellent range of music CD's available at reasonable prices, and great range of souvenirs. Well worth stopping by when in the area.

Did some souvenir shopping in the Aussie World Shop, one of my favourite stops when in Qld for presents for family and friends back home. The selection of Hats is amazing, wonderful display of Ettamogagh pub themed items, fantastic range of souvenirs. A must stop place when in Qld.

A wondrous site to behold on the side of the highway, just like those comic books we are all familiar with. Had a photo shoot, and dropped in for a drink, loved it....

Older style cabins, a bit cramped for space, bed uncomfortable, shower was adequate, although by the time second person had a shower water was running cool, lots to see in the township, but this was just drive through en route to Queensland.
