#5 Raglan Tavern
12 RatingsStayed here recently and absolutely loved it! Free camping with showers and toilets, plus a great pub with alcoholic ginger beer on tap and delicious hot chips. The ladies in the pub were also really friendly. The only downside was the road noise, so ear plugs are a must! Overall, it was the best stay we've had so far. Highly recommended!
