The guest laundry at BIG4 Barham Holiday Parks solves the problem every extended traveller knows too well: you can only re-wear that shirt so many times before it becomes antisocial.
Washing machines and dryers, which is the main thing. There’s also an iron and ironing board if you’re the kind of person who irons on holiday, or if you’ve got a wedding/funeral/job interview to attend mid-trip. No judgement either way.
The laundry’s coin-operated, so bring change or grab some from the office. Nothing worse than a basket of wet clothes and no way to dry them.
Everyone has the same idea on rainy days. If the weather’s closed in and you’re thinking “might as well do laundry,” so is every other person in the park. Early morning or later evening tends to be quieter. Or just accept you’ll be waiting for a machine and bring a book.
The clothesline option exists too for sunny days when you’d rather not pay for the dryer. There’s something satisfying about clothes dried in actual sunshine, and your towels will smell like Murray River air instead of machine heat.
Two weeks on the road with kids generates an alarming amount of washing. Having a laundry on site means you can pack lighter, which means more room for the important stuff (fishing gear, camp chairs, that esky you definitely needed).
It’s not glamorous, but it’s one of those facilities you really appreciate when you need it. And you will need it.
