Does anyone know if the visitor centre &/or cafe is dog friendly (can’t see any reference on the website)
A:
Hi, I did ask about this myself; dogs aren't allowed in the visitor centre though I noticed clips for leads on the picnic benches and they're welcome in the outdoor spaced.
could we just turn up in our campervan and park on the kelpie carpark over night or do we have to book before and how long can w stay there Please

Yes you can just turn up. There’s no need to book, we didn’t. There’s only one car park that you can park in overnight but the car park attendants are very helpful and will direct you.
