Stanthorpe exploring ...

We'd previously visited Stanthorpe in June 2017, not long after relocating to Queensland.  On that occassion the four of us, with Bandit, stayed in a pet-friendly cabin on Storm King Dam. 

We stayed at the same caravan park this trip, on a powered site just a short walk from the water.

Our November anniversary trip had been planned for bushwalking in the Girraween National Park, without Mr Dog.  It wasn't an option to leave him behind for the rescheduled booking - but fortunately there were lots of dog-friendly options around the area.

We had a lot of fun exploring around Serendipity Rocks nature reserve - and revisiting Donnelly's Castle.  There was a short walk around Mt Marlay also.  Mr Dog had such a great day, he slept super-soundly that night!

Cafe dining isn't something we usually do with Bandit but there were a number of dog-friendly wineries, so we chose one of those to visit on our last day.  

We ordered a wood-fired pizza and Mr Dog was very happy to be given a morsel!

The tourist information centre has a multi-page list of the wineries and their various dog-friendly conditions.  We were given a brochure about dog-friendly walks in the area also (and I had researched at home as well).
