To find the White Cliffs Underground Motel you will have to travel across far horizons, among rolling sand dunes, in between rugged spaces, and the big skies of outback NSW. But it’s worth a visit to one of only three ‘dugout’ motels in Australia, and the largest, with 48 underground rooms.
The motel attracts guests from around the world who enjoy a constant temperature of 22 degrees as well as a licensed restaurant, café and bar.
Many buildings in White Cliffs are built underground to escape the heat of summer.
The tiny, quirky, opal mining township of White Cliffs is located in far west NSW, 1025km from Sydney and 781km north-east of Adelaide.
