The Aston Motel sits on the New England Highway at Nemingha, about six kilometres north of central Tamworth, and it is one of the more genuinely dog-friendly motel stays in the region: dedicated pet rooms with their own enclosed patio, no pet fee, and 3.5 acres of grounds to stretch a lead on.
The pet policy. Pet-friendly rooms are a specific booking category, not a blanket policy across the motel: look for "Queen Room - Pet Friendly," "Pet Friendly - Executive Queen," or the older-style "Family - Pet Friendly" room, each with a fully enclosed patio. Dogs are not permitted loose inside standard guestrooms. Pets stay free, with a general limit of two per room. Confirm at booking that a pet-friendly room is actually being held for you, since the property only has a limited number of them.
The place. The motel sits on landscaped grounds with a swimming pool, a barbecue area, and the licensed Restaurant 999 on site, so you can eat without repacking the car. Rooms run modern and comfortable, with reports of large TVs and tidy kitchenettes in the family-style options.
Location and nearby. The address is 999 Armidale Road, Nemingha, right on the New England Highway, with parking close to the rooms so unloading a dog is easy. Central Tamworth is a short drive south for parks and cafes.

Best for a one or two night highway stopover with a dog who is happy to settle on a patio rather than roam the room. Bring your own water bowl and bedding, and confirm pet requirements directly with the property when booking.
