Newhaven Park is an extensive country style homestead, set in 3 acres of garden, with a warmth and character all its own. Situated just 12 km south of Bathurst in an area surrounded by grazing country with a quaint village nearby. Guests are surrounded in dormitory style rooms with amenities connected to each room. We only take one school at a time so you will always have the place to yourselves. There are 7 rooms accommodating from 5 to 32 people; all facilities are contained in one house under the same roof, which sleeps up to 100 guests. If not required linen bring own toiletries / towel / sleeping bag / pillow slip.

Please contact us if you require information about things to do and see in and around Bathurst for your school excursion. We can organise your transport and full itinerary for your Gold & History Excursion as well as any other tour around Bathurst with a costing per head, just choose where you want to go and we can do the rest, we endeavour to make the children as well as the teachers have a very fulfilling and enjoyable experience.

Newhaven Park has a Games room with Table Tennis and Large rear-projections TV with DVD. We also have a Tennis Court (BYO Rackets) and swimming Pool (fully caged-in when not in use for safety).
