After much discussion together and with other travellers we decided to stay at the Big 4 in Howard Springs, Darwin. As its August (2019) the rates have just dropped by 10% and also we receive another discount being Big 4 members.
Anyway here we are. The park is very large, something we also have not been used to for sometime. Luckily we have a site where we are not on top of our neighbor. That’s a good thing. The park has loads of trees 🌳🌴🌳🌴 and there are some green grassed sites.
It’s about a 25kms from the city of Darwin, but just get on the main highway and your there in no time. Around the area of the caravan park are quite a few large shopping centres, Coolalinga, Palmerston and Gateway all around 10 to 15 minutes’ drive from the park. Or you can take a 30 minute drive to the largest shopping centre in the Northern Territory Casuarina.
The park has:
👉Grassed and slab sites – powered and unpowered🔌
👉TV/Telstra reception📱
👉BBQ’s galore🥩
👉Camp kitchen🍽
👉Water/splash park💦
👉Swimming pools🏊♀️
👉Jumping pillow🤸♂️
👉Kids Playground⛹️♀️🤾♀️
👉Pet friendly🐶
👉Amenity blocks with unisex ensuites 🚻♿️
👉Laundry👚👕
👉Dump points🚽
Our site was $39.60 per night for 2A (adults) with power and water – also includes our discount as a G’Day Rewards (Big4) member.
