Camping around Perth for 2 week Reccie
Hi all
Can anyone advise me or know where I can get a list of camp sites North and South of Perth for our 2 week validation trip in January, will be hiring a campervan.
Did the same on the east coast a couple of years ago and found lots of places all with good facilities, sure it must be the same in WA
Cheers
Mick

If you actually want to stay in Perth city, there is a nice caravan park in the Karrinyup/Gwelup areas in the northern suburbs of Perth, not sure of the name (Karrinyup Waters maybe?), but it is only 20 mins from the CBD and 10 from beaches. Quiet and leafy. Hope this helps.

It's Karrinyup waters resort. We stayed there on our recce and thought it was great! Lovely swimming pool, very clean, bbq area, big pond, very friendly and helpfull staff. In fact think the guy who runs it is Irish, if I remember correctly. Can highly recommend it, think we will try and stay here when we first get to Aus. They have a touring part and static caravan/chalets. Nicky x

You1`re actually there then, Wow how cool is that.
It seems that nearly everyone we have met on our journey so far have now landed, including you guys.
Hopefully you have done the hardest bit and the next few months will get easier for you. Reckon you are doing the right thing in not working for a while just till you get settled in. Hows Butler and was it easy to find a rental?
Am in the process of getting a flight booked so that I land on the 5th of January to validate, which is by coincidence my 40th AARGHHHH! How old is that?
Will definitely meet up with you guys for a beer or get that barbie on.
Hope all goes well, keep us posted and speak soon.
Mick n Claire
PS Hope kids are settling in well.

40 is really old- LOL. (Mine is in Feb )
If you need a hand with anything (meeting at the airport etc), let us know!
See you for a birthday barbie in January.
