Bowen

Further south and tucked away 4kms off the Bruce Highway is Glen Erin Farmstay – best described as a bush caravan park as we have access to power and water, it is roughly 20 minutes from the town of Bowen and once again, so very peaceful. There is a resident pet kangaroo named Tilly and she deposits herself under any caravan awning she chooses whenever she chooses.



When checking you in the camp hostess, a woman by the name of Lyn in her 70’s, invites you to the nightly happy hour around the fireplace where she bakes damper over the coals. She cooks 2 different flavours of damper every night and they are deliciously light. Needless to say we take our glass of wine across and join the other campers for a good natter and a taste of what’s on offer. We have enjoyed banana, mango, corn and camembert with cranberries – she apparently has a little recipe book so I think that a copy might be added to our bookshelf!
