Jennie, the organiser of the Family Reunion had suggested somewhere different for us to stay.
What made it different was the type of accommodation.
Replica Gypsy Caravan.
To quote the website:
'Constructed with guidance from heritage professionals, the wagons are a
unique reproduction of travelling gypsy wagons in the late 19th century.
Historical accuracy however does not stand in the way of 21st century comforts
though.
Ascend the stairs into your own kitchenette/dining/entertainment area.
Follow through to the separate bedroom with “grandma’s high bed”, richly
decorated in velvet, lace and brocades.
A full en-suite and reverse cycle air conditioning for your additional
comfort. The wagons measures 8.5m x 2.5m
Ideal for a romantic getaway couple.'
Now how could we not possible stay here?
Here are some pictures of the Echuca Gardens.
