Travelling with pets

Set on 14 acres , Armidale Tourist Park features the choice of three Pet Friendly Studio cabins that allow well trained, vaccinated pets inside. Our cabins have ensuites, reverse-cycle air-con, linen provided for the amount of guests booked, and entertaining area & undercover carport. If you wish to book one of our pet friendly cabins, please make sure you select our specific pet friendly cabins online or give us a call and we can help. Not all of our cabins are pet friendly and fines will be incurred for pets being found in our non-pet friendly cabins.

Out And About
