Cumnock

Cumnock is a tranquil rural village located about 4 hours west of Sydney. Cumnock is centrally located between the wineries surrounding Orange, the Dubbo Zoo, Parkes Radio Telescope, Wellington Caves and the Angora rabbit farm, so “call in for a cuppa” or lunch from the Old Court House Café and enjoy the historical ambience of one of the smallest towns in the shire.

Cumnock has a wide main street flanked by vibrantly painted telegraph poles, a large shady park with a BBQ and picnic tables, plus a children’s playground with a super-heroes mural. Cumnock is a keen sporting community where Wallaby legends like John White, Tim Gavin and Ross Reynolds were born.

The public swimming pool, tennis courts, bowling club, golf course, squash court, bike tracks, cricket and football oval, showground and pony club are all popular facilities. The Playgroup, Pre-school and Public School are well attended.

Cumnock is reliant on the rural sector and much of the farming area is used for wool production, sheep and cattle, and grain growing.  Small businesses include a well-stocked General store, cafe, Bowling club, Royal Hotel, AgNVet rural supplies and stock transportation. Cumnock has a dedicated and very strong community base, many volunteers work together to keep this rural town alive.
