Our take
I recommend the Shearing Shed Motor Inn to families planning a trip to Taronga Western Plains Zoo. It is a short drive from the zoo, and the swimming pool, BBQ area and free parking make the stay easy with children. Some rooms have a spa bath, which is worth asking about when you book if you want one. It is a motor inn, so expect a practical, car-friendly stay rather than a resort feel.
- ✓If you're travelling with family, consider booking a room with a spa bath for extra relaxation.
- ✓Take advantage of the free on-site parking, especially if you're driving to the zoo or golf course.
- ✓Walk to the historic Old Dubbo Gaol for a dose of local heritage, it's only ten minutes away.

Why guests love itThe Shearing Shed Motor Inn is a sensible base for families visiting Dubbo. Rooms are air-conditioned and some have a spa bath, there is a swimming pool and a BBQ area, and parking on site is free. Taronga Western Plains Zoo is a short drive away, which is the reason most families come. I would choose it for the pool, the free parking and easy access to the zoo.
