Evening diwayne
I know I will get shot down in flames but if you are wanting something close to Watsonia the the Big 4 at Elizabeth Street Coburg would possibly be the one but but I am unsure as to what their max size is
If my grey matter is any good Watsonia use to be a communication training base

Yes Geoff it is still a training base. Our son in law is there for 12 months on a I.T. course. Cheers Wayne.

Simpson Barracks is an Army facility and is currently home to a large number of units. It has excellent on-base facilities and is located in the suburb of Yallambie in Melbourne.

Hi Gang
A small part taken direct from their web site so my inference is that it would be full of permanents
"Blue Gum Cabin and Caravan Park is a residential park with a large range of on site cabins to choose from, we do not cater for caravans."
Sorry dieseltojo

HI GeoffC,
Thanks mate, well spotted, I seem to remember this company from a previous encounter now that you mention it. :)
They create little villages, and don't accept casual visitors.
