Great Places To Visit-Fraser Range Station WA.

We recently crossed the Nullabor from East to West and stopped at Fraser Range Station for 2 nights for a breather. It's only 3kms off the main road, on a well graded dirt road (we don't have a 4 x 4 caravan) and is peaceful, beautiful, with good amenities that are cleaned daily.  We liked it so much we ended up staying 5 nights. They offer a main meal each evening which varies in price depending on the menu. The caravan park is excellent with plenty of shade and they are adding to it and doing up the old shearing shed to be another amenities block and office. They also have unpowered sites, and camping sites. Very well set out. They are developing more sites for the future. Fraser Range Station is a MUST stop for a good look at an Australian Working Station that has diversified. They have an assortment of walking tracks well sign posted which allow you to see different sections of Australian Bush and animals. We went on a couple of the tracks available and saw, kangaroos,

Just spent a week in the Beautiful Valley Caravan Park. Old park, but very clean, plenty of hot water and very peaceful.  Like country people's attitude to life. The have "resident lawn mowers." They are a small mob of friendly sheep and a creamy miniature mare called Snowy. Adorable! The kids of all ages love them. Really enjoyed our stay here at it truly is a beautiful valley. Our stay included a drive up to Hancocks Lookout, which is a must by the way. Also we went for a walk along one of the bush tracks. About 5kms through the bush, over rocky creek beds etc. Gorgeous scenery. The area was originally named Beautiful Valley, as was the township of Wilmington, but the named was changed to Wilmington due to confusion with a local property by the same name. So the town is Wilmington, the local Cafe and Caravan Park are Beautiful Valley... They have a great service station/grocery store/hardware store, come everything store at Wilmington also. The prices are reasonably
