This is a review which almost needs to be in different sections. It was a great experience staying in an outback pub in the middle of nowhere. The pub itself is fascinating, quite old and "colourful". The room was a Portacabin type arrangement out the back. Very ordinary and quite small, but reasonably clean and it was cheap. It had...

There is only one reason to stay here, namely, that there is nowhere else that is close to the Devils Marbles, so if you want to see them at their best (sunset) you have little choice. The cabins are pokey and in need of a really good cleaning. The basin in the bathroom was so small that you could only... More

What a little gem this place is. We stayed on a powered site over night as it was close to the Devils Marbles. What a surprise this place turned out to be. The restaurant was lovely and so nice to find some fine dining out in the middle of nowhere. My husband said it is nice to see some-one who... More

We stayed one night in one of the Dongas out the back of this typical Aussie Pub. It was very basic, but surprisingly clean, warm, good water pressure in the shower and comfortable bed. There is a beer garden and pool which would be nice in the warmer weather. The real surprise was the restaurant, food and wine cellar. All... More

Wow what a find , the Wauchope pub is brilliant , we stayed in the dongas at the rear of the pub , they are off a resonable standard for 1 night , they have great air/con at a cheapish price , but the real highlight is the pub with its authentic charm , superb beer garden with pool and... More

The rooms are very basic, but have what you need for one night. There is a small pool next to the bar. The food is good, particularly for the location. Staff are mostly backpackers who have experience in hospitality and seem to genuinely enjoy working there. Small bottle shop attached to bar. Caravan places too. Good spot to stop on... More

OK, so it's never ging to get 5 stars but this place is a great little stopover and the real deal in terms of Aussie outback experiences. We chose a night here so we could see the Devil's Marbles both at sunset and sunrise. In the end, we didn't bother with sunrise but that's another story. So, we booked via... More

This hotel is the closest accommodation to the Devil's Marbles rock features and as we didnt want to stay in Tennant Creek we took a punt on the Wauchope hotel. While the accommodation is very very basic, the hotel itself is great - friendly staff, great meal, nice lush beer garden and really quite nice for a place in the... More
