Airstrip near Tamworth

[Bigglesworth]

I am thinking of flying to my annual holiday to the Tamworth Country Music Festival.

 

Only problem is that Tamworth is a major airport and as such would not let in a recreational plane without a transponder etc. Does any one know of a nearby strip or useable paddock where I could land and park my plane for about 5 days for a reasonable cost?

 

All come along, its one really good party there.

 

(come to think of it; all the clubs let you wear hats during the festival, so maybe the airport will also relax rules to allow all the farmers to fly in, some hopes:sad:)
