Where to stop Melbourne to Coffs Harbour

[feeb]

Going to Coffs Harbour in Jan for a wedding. Planning on driving allowing 2 nights to drive up, 5 nights there ad 2 nights to drive back due to fact kids will go nuts if in car for too long! (Will be 4 and nearly 3)

So where do people suggest stopping for food stops or play??

Where do you suggest stopping the night??

What fun things are there to do on way up? as allowing time to explore and do things on way up

Newcastle has some nice beaches, parks, and accommodation

There is an awesome park in albury (you need to get off at the first exit) would be great for a play.
It's called Oddies creek adventure park (nouruil park)

We stopped for the night in Goulburn - just at the caravan park, but it had really lovely facilities and the cabin was quite big considering it held all of us!

Thanks for ideas so far girls!! Much appreciated.

Any more ideas.

Ettamogah pub just past Albury is a cool place to stop for a look around.

There's a huge submarine embedded into the ground in Holebrook (I think). My kids love it.

I can't remember any places past Sydney, I think we drove straight through, only stopping for petrol.
