Hotel Corones

If you love a great story then this is one you just can't visit Charleville and not hear. The story of Hotel Corones and the man behind it is a story like no other and one that has to be heard to believed! Harry 'POPPA' Corones was a remarkable early day entrepreneur who arrived in Australia penniless and went on to make Australian history numerous times throughout his life. This tour is filled with his story and the comical antics he used to get up to, tales of the rich and famous who have all stayed in the hotel, [including Royalty & what unusual request did early day Aviator Amy Johnson make upon arrival], the odd ghost story and beautiful architectural features on both the top and bottom floor of the hotel, concluding with a relaxing afternoon tea in the dining room. Tours operate every day [except Tuesday & Thursday] commencing at 2pm. Bookings are essential.

Charleville Bilby Experience

The Bilby Experience is a show not to be missed. We have revamped the show, and you will not only see the super cute bilbies in their spectacular nocturnal house, but you will also learn about the plight of the bilby and our successful breeding and release program. Following the guided tour, you will have time to ask questions, browse our informative displays and to watch the short clips we have available.

If you are interested in understanding our impact on wild life then is a must, it also show you how determined people of the bush can be. These little Bilbys are so precious and they have a really good breeding program. They need money. So go and do the tour and spend a few dollars.

Historic House and Museum

Reviewed By jenikrysmajohnson - Brisbane, Australia

History of the town - the people - the machinery - the way of life and the BIG safe that was there when it was a bank. Worth a visit and depending on what you are interested in ... how long you will spend there.
