The best book on the market, we refer to it daily on our last trip.

Thanks for a great book, we saved over $500 in fees using your book, it was our RV travel 'bible' for travelling this winter.

Camps 5th Edition

Best camping guide I have come accross to date and I have lots of them. The CampSnaps are what set this book apart from the rest. Well done

Hi,
 
Just wanted to say that your Camps5 book is an excellent way to save $ & travel our gorgeous country at the same time.  My dad just bought me your book (just because) he has used your books before, I'd never heard of it.  
 
We are a young couple in our 30's with two children who bought an 80 series Millard last year in awesome condition from an older couple who have been around Australia in it a couple of times.  It has everything you could think of to go almost anywhere-well not 4WDriving but.  Batteries, we only needed to buy the solar panels.  (You wouldn't think it's an 80 series-he has modified it & put in more cupboard space etc... so it's perfect to travel with kids). (My husband thought I was nuts when I saw the van for sale - he has never been camping in his life - we have been so far, Soldiers Point, Fairy Meadow, Kiama, Wollongong, Forster, Mungo, Hat Head & Myall Lakes, all since April 08 when we bought it.  
 
We head out any chance we get even if it's just for short trips here and there until we can take more leave from our workplaces.  THE KIDS LOVE IT!! SO DO WE!!
 
Just wanted to say, Awesome book, great details regarding the camp/rest/caravan sites, Awesome.
 
Thanks again,
Kylie

Dear Philip and Cathryn,

I am so glad I found you on the internet.  Last time we took our four children on a caravan holiday we stayed mainly in caravan parks, but now that the children are older, we really wanted to do some more bush camping - more adventurous, and also cheaper with a large family!  Your book is EXACTLY what we need.  I am very impressed with how well set out it is - extremely easy to follow.  And I have just checked outand printed off the updates for the states in which we will be travelling.  Very, very good.  Thank you so much!
God bless,Litsa Grace

Hi Folks, your book is an absolute boon for me. I use a wheelchair for mobility and, thanks to you, have been able to camp in less expensive or free areas knowing that there is at least an accessible loo avalilable! I used Camps 3 for travels to FNQ, updated to Camps 4, and am currently planning a Darwin, W.A. escape.

Many thanks for being 'politically correct' and including us Wheelies in the book (or should it be "Wheelie Grey Nomads"!)

Camps 4 is our second book and we like the photos of the sites to give us a visual picture of a planned stop over points. Glad to receive number 4 as number 2 was getting worn out. Ronald Barry

Your book is worth it's weight in gold..it gives me the freedom to hit the road knowing I can always find a place to stay for the night!

Third Edition:

Thanks for the book! It saved us money time and arguments, and we got to see & enjoy far more of OZ than in our 8 years of caravanning. Thanks a million! Peter Ridley

I have recently purchased camps Australia wide 3 and must commend you on a great reference book. I wish I had such a helpful book when my wife and I travelled around Australia in 1989. It would have surely saved us many a frustrated afternoon searching for a free camp to keep us within our budget for the year. The average cost of a campsite is now 3 times what it was back then and diesel was only 46c per litre when we left Brisbane. I don't know how travellers keep to their budgets today.

I think you have a fantastic product. It is just wonderful. I also purchased Snaps. I am so impressed with these products. I know that we will get a great deal of use out of both, and has well worth the investment. It's just great to be able to look to see what sort of place it is ahead. It is so nice to be able to pull into an area that you know in advance is scenic as well as appropriate to your needs. (that it has got a bit of grass to roll our swags out on.) I guess this is your own experiences that have led to the provision of this info. Well Done! I will be passing on the info of your publication to all I know. Thank you for a good product.

Many thanks for the wonderful books, CAW3 & Camp Snaps. Best money I have ever spent. Three nights not staying in van parks & we have already paid for them.
Congratulations on the excellent presentation. Sites very easy to find & being able to see sites that you might head for that day (in Camp Snaps) is an absolute bonus. I think that anyone who plans to do a lot of travelling would be a fool unto themselves if they don't purchase your great books.
We will be on the road for 12 months & 'free camping' whenever we can. I will send you updates of sites from time to time. Will recommend your books to as many travellers as possible.
All the best, Graeme & Robin Tickle

I have just received Camps 3. Wow! and that doesn't go anywhere near describing it, and the way you have linked the Road Atlas, The Camps & The Photos we can't wait to hit the Frog & Toad & put it to good use. I also like the GPS position detail this means I won't have to rely on Bosses navigation, she is a top cook, an excellent driver with a Van behind or out 4x4ing but not navigating.
Congratulations. It's a 99/100. Come on; you never give 100. People give up improvement if you do that.
Don & Irene Berry

Sincere Congratulations on the publishing of the new "Camps Australia Wide". What a great friend this new book will be for all of us "travellers". It's compact, and very easy to follow. We are certainly looking forward to experiencing lots of new "off road "camp sites. As we travel with our dear little eleven year old poodle we are grateful that you have the dog friendly symbol where appropriate, as we can plan ahead whilst on the road.
Congrats once again; it's a brilliant book. The map sections with each state are easy to follow. I recommend this book to anyone travelling as we have used the earlier copies all over Australia.
Yours Sincerely, Nola Shaw
