The basics. Kootingal Landview Motel is a quiet, family-run roadside motel on the New England Highway near Tamworth. The deciding fact for dog owners: pets of any size are welcome in designated rooms for AU$30 per pet, per night.
The pet policy. Dogs stay in designated non-smoking pet-friendly rooms, such as the Economy Triple. You can bring multiple pets, but each carries the AU$30 nightly fee and must be registered with the motel. Pets are expected to be supervised throughout your stay. Bring your own bedding and bowls, as the motel does not supply them for pets. Confirm exact requirements at booking.
The place. A three-star motel consistently praised for cleanliness, comfortable beds, and modern, well-appointed rooms. Despite the highway position, guests report very quiet interiors. Flat access from the car park to rooms makes unloading straightforward, and a garden and picnic area out the back suits quick outdoor breaks with the dog.
Location and nearby. On the New England Highway in Kootingal, roughly a short drive from Tamworth. Free on-site self-parking is available, including accessible spaces. For exercise, Kootingal Recreation Ground offers open space nearby, and quiet rural roads around the Peel River suit dog walks. The town has a local service station and cafes; for wider pet supplies, head into Tamworth.
Who it suits. Travellers passing through the New England region who want a clean, affordable, no-fuss stopover where the dog is genuinely welcome regardless of size. Better value than staying directly in Tamworth, and the designated-room setup means you are not contending with property-wide pet restrictions.
When to go. Ideal as an overnight stop between Sydney and points further north, or as a cheaper base for exploring the Tamworth area. Book ahead and confirm a designated pet room, as availability is limited to specific room types.
