We stayed at Spirit of the Rainforest on route to QLD (ie a good halfway stop from Sydney) whilst a little bit off the beaten track it provided a fantastic opportunity to relax and unwind after a long drive - beautiful quiet countryside & views - the Shed also accommodated my family well - had a nice bbq dinner, an evening fire in the pit, a walk around the property, some family board games & early night. It was a lot better than staying in a hotel / motel on the M1 - would recommend.
