Cranky Rock Glamping – Wollombi (CG)

Cranky Rock Glamping is located at the base of the mountains on a beautiful valley floor, located in wine country in the lower Hunter Valley. The name Cranky Rock was from a 25 tonne sandstone rock that graces the area. The site is a short drive to wineries and Pokolbin concerts. The area is a working farm and you will be awoken to the natural bush sounds of lyre birds. The site is accessible to motorhomes and caravans with basic facilities.

THINGS TO DO
Whether you’re staying a day or a week, there’s no shortage of things to do in and around the Wollombi in the Hunter Valley.

If you’re after something different, catch a Valley Artist production, or stroll through the annual Sculpture in the Vineyards, which takes place during October and November each year. A visit to the Koolang Astronomical Observatory at Bucketty is also a memorable experience.

You can easily spend days exploring the history of Wollombi, gateway to Hunter Valley Wine Country. Well preserved Aboriginal engravings can be seen in a few locations. Many sections of the Convict Trail can be walked or accessed by car, and the Wollombi Village Historical Walk takes in the many pre-1860s buildings in the village, including the Endeavour Museum.

For those into creative arts, you’ve come to the right place. Performances are held throughout the year by Valley Artists, which are all highly regarded. Regular art exhibitions are displayed at the Cultural Centre in the village, and the Laguna School Art Show in September is a major annual event.

Nature-lovers are also well catered for. Explore the Yengo National Park and Watagans, which offer Hunter Valley bushwalks of all lengths and difficulty, as well as the spectacular view from Finchley Trig. Or take the time to observe the many species of birds, grazing wallaroos and wallabies at dusk or wombats to night, to mention a few of the native locals.
