Edna May - Westonia Tavern, Westonia, WA

Westonia Tavern

Westonia, halfway between Perth & Kalgoorlie, just 11 kms off the Great Eastern Hwy from Carrabin Roadhouse. (Cheapest fuel here)

Well worth the detour.

The unique 48-hour free camp in town beside the church
Located at 75 Wolfram St, the main street.

Yes, church camping, with just a short stroll to
The Westonia Tavern, formerly the Edna May Tavern.

Must be self-contained, no facilities apart from a covered picnic table but a short walk to town toilets.

You can have a shower at the camping ground for a low cost and fill up with water there too.

Dump point at the entry into town

This town is a tourist's delight; the Main Street has all their facades renovated to emulate the original town.

A beautiful clean, and safe little town, and a great place to visit.

Their sporting facilities are exceptional; a domed bowling green is most impressive.

Alongside that is a swimming pool, including toddlers pool, 2 tennis courts, a great playground, and a football field is just a block away. 
These are all shire supplied.

The museum next to the council offices is a must-visit.
Some very surprising items are on display. Enter via the shire offices

There is no TV reception, Telstra service is good, but Optus is not available

The Tavern is great with friendly staff and locals and excellent pub meals.

A gold mine which supplied the town with miners and their accommodation closed on 16/04/25

A viewing lookout to see the now abandoned mine is still accessible.

There's a lot to see around here.

A little further north there are several significant granite rock outcrops that are great to explore.
