Fantastic little bit of history in Lighting Ridge. Don’t drive by on looks. Drop in and check it out. Well worth the $10 to have a look

What a little piece of history. The story behind it and the history inside takes you back, (if you are old enough lol). There's a little fossicking patch out the side that we found a couple of little pieces in.

If you can visit this place as part of a tour, it would be better.
There was definitely opal fragments in the noodling pile out the side of the building

when we went there it was the school holidays and the place was closed. there was for sale signs up so the owner must need it sold. none the less we didnt drive that far to not get some photos and happy snaps with the family and dog. it was clever how they built the house. good reason for a drink. we did not go inside and maybe one day if we were to go back we could go inside? i am not sure. i also saw the wellington bottle house. this house is alot more rustic and looks hand built labor of love for whoever built it. must see if you travel to lightning ridge for sure

Arthur is one of the true characters of the outback. This isn't your average museum. It's a step back in time with a live narrative of a lost world. There are so many sureal things about Lightning Ridge, and this is one of the best. After shopping around for jewelry and souvenirs, we also came back here. Best prices in town.

The gentleman who owns the bottle house was a welth of knowledge, pleasent and could answer any questions about Lightning Ridge and beyond, he had some amising things to look at I was free to take as many photos as I wanted and all for $15.00

Very interesting but not sure if the $10 was worth it, don't get me wrong but per person is a little steep for what you get
