Peterborough is a lovely country town in the wheat growing area of South Australia and has a great Railway History. There are a number of historic buildings along the main street and we found the locals very welcoming and happy for a chat. We stayed at the Peterborough Caravan Park while in town and had a great drive-through site overlooking farmland.
You could easily spend a few days here and visit the Railway Museum, or explore the country around Peterborough - bird watching and/or bush walking through the Greg Duggan Nature Reserve. The Visitor Information Centre is on the mains Street - great information and souvenirs but you can also look inside a restored first class carriage of the East West Express (dating back to 1917) - beautiful.
We find you always need to keep alert when in the country as you never know what you will see next - we will definitely stay longer on our next visit to Peterborough.
