Gladstone is a must visit while you are in the Macleay, the quaint village is home to 19 beautifully preserved buildings that host local art galleries, an emporium, artisan finds and boutique shopping sourced both locally and internationally.
Stretching along the banks of the Macleay River it is a relaxing and beautiful village making shopping a delightful experience. The Hub is a collective of businesses offering carefully crafted handmade products, gifts, coffee and wholesome health foods.
After exploring, dine out at one of the many cafes, restaurants or the local pub. Trading hours for the majority of the shops are Wednesday-Sunday, closing Monday-Tuesday. Opening hours throughout the holidays may change to open all days.
