Grenfell, Central West region of New South Wales
We first stumbled upon Grenfell by pure chance. In October of 2020, we were tootling around NSW, the weather was good and unlike Victoria, NSW wasn’t in Covid lockdown. There was no point in hurrying home. Stopping for a coffee break in what looked to be an interesting town, we were told to check out the RV campground at the old railway station. We did, and we stayed for the maximum 3 nights.
This year (2023), on our way north we stopped in again. Once more Grenfell did not disappoint. Grand old buildings from the gold rush prosperity, and colonial infrastructure in the courthouse and associated judiciary buildings. Pubs, of which there are many, and churches for sober ease of the soul.
Once more we wished we could stay longer, but it was time to move on and the warmth of the north beckoned.

Grenfell, I’ll have to make a note of that one when we’re down south.

We’ll worth a visit. Especially Seaton Farm, a depression era farmhouse built from flattened kerosene tins. The Noni Hazlehurst series A Place to Call Home was also filmed at a Grenfell mansion, closed when we visited.
