The break at Home Hill and the Cape had been wonderful but it was also nice to be back in the van and heading north off on another adventure!! Well “adventure” might be a slight exaggeration as we had decided to return to a place we had already been in Rollingstone just north of Townsville. This time though we were back playing golf and so were keen to play a course called Mystic Sands which was just 15 mins from the campsite.
We had fond memories of Rollingstone campground and this time we had amassed enough loyalty points to score an upgrade and managed to book a site right on the beachfront with an en-suite!!! Luxury indeed!!
It was a great location and it was also nice to be back in our bed and we laughed as we both felt like we were “back home!!” It was lovely to have the windows all open and to sit and cook and eat outside listening to the waves and enjoying the fresh air. How very lucky we are.
We were only to be there for a couple of nights and so made the most of some walks along the beach and relaxing with the view.
Our trip to Mystic Sands golf club was certainly enjoyable although at first we had wondered what we had signed up for as the entrance to the golf course was packed with caravans and the place looked more like a caravan park than a golf course.
Still we paid for 9 holes and once we got to the golf course it was actually really really nice!! It was very green and in fairly good condition and we had a great afternoon. Just for the record Sarah won (I have been accused of not reporting the scores enough!).
We were at first a little anxious about returning to a place we had enjoyed before but we were definitely happy that we did and while it was only a very short stay it was definitely an enjoyable one. T
