No dump point, no water, one store very little at Broke, no fire wood need to bring your own.

What about Bulahdelah, roughly 100km nth of Newcastle NSW, I believe they have quite a good camp ground there beside the river.

Would need to go to the Showgrounds at Bulahdelah, I think, the camp area on the river is closed at the moment.

Texas has dump point & water available in town at the council depot, several shops including a small supermarket in town. The camp area is definitely self contained no toilet, no water, there is a tank but it's usually empty & someone recently posted that there is a skip at the site for rubbish now.

I think Bollon's in the Granit belt where all the stone fruit is grown also around the coldest place's in Qld thru winter.
It does snow thru the Granit belt .

went to Bollon a month ago, beautiful but popular - might get a little cramped.
Certainly ticks my boxes.
