It was a bit of a walk from the coach stop. If you intend to come to Bourke by coach, you should advise as such, or you might be locked out when security gates close in the early evening. Meanwhile, I liked the wall panels around my little room, which was pretty comfortable.

This doesn’t promise to be luxury. It was a comfortable bed and a hot shower for the night. The owners were lovely and the servo across the road had great pizza. It wasn’t expensive but the in room facilities were great for the price.
