Nov 2019, Heyfield, Vic

Just 22kms north of Rosedale, Heyfield in Victoria’s Gippsland region is larger than we had imagined. There’s a pub, two cafes, Chinese and Indian restaurants, a baker and a butcher who is a new bloke to the town. The Heyfield RV Stop Spot is on the defunct recreation reserve. Local businesses have refurbished it with a modern toilet and shower block, a dump point and a herb garden for our enjoyment. The cost to travellers is a donation and $1 per shower. Because it’s in the heart of town you can stay hooked on. There’s a 48hour limit and it is dog friendly. For those who enjoy town walks and houses and gardens there is an abundance of well-tended country cottages. The wetland walk is not to be missed. Most importantly though the nights are blissfully quiet.
