Instead of staying in the Holbrook caravan park we stayed for free (unpowered) in the large grassy area behind the pub. As good guests do, we had dinner that night at the pub and it was exceptionally good.\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/rjjc.net\/home\/?p=234\">The Riverina Hotel in Holbrook<\/a> also allows campers to use their toilets and showers at no extra cost, which was particularly useful to us since our van&#8217;s toilet was not set up to use at that point. We can&#8217;t recommend the <a href=\"https:\/\/rjjc.net\/home\/?p=234\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">The Riverina Hotel in Holbrook<\/a> highly enough&#8230; flat level camping area, friendly staff, excellent food, cold beer\/wine and good country atmosphere.
