5 SOOTHING SPA CAMPS IN AUSTRALIA

Wooramel Riverside Retreat by Overland Exposure Soothe away your aches in hot mineral spa! You’ll love these bucket-list Australian outback camps to soak in artesian water… Wooramel River Retreat, WA CAMPS Ambassadors Manda and Daniel described it as: “An oasis in the middle of nowhere WA! About an hour south of Carnarvon and roughly 2 hours north of Denham, we highly recommend this one. The manager and staff [are] super lovely …and the Thermal Pools were outstanding. I can’t wait for the cafe area to open too, it will just be next level.”  See more photos over here. Wooramel Riverside

Stirlingvale Station – our newest NSW Station Stay

If you are travelling to the Mundi Mundi Bash between 15-17th August, why not organise a stopover at Stirlingvale Station – our newest NSW Station Stay. The rugged beauty and tranquility of the latest addition to our Farm & Station Stay category is on full display.

Facilities The property owners welcome all vehicles and offer off grid bush camping.  For that reason you’ll need to be self contained in this setting.  Sites are located on the homestead side of

6 Epic Station Stays for Gibb River Road Camping in Western Australia

Here’s what we most liked about the Epic Station Stays you find along the Gibb River Road in Western Australia’s Kimberley. They are strategically located to step your way through the iconic 4WD road, one at a time. All but one are pet friendly! Most are unallocated bush type camping which we love, we mixed these up with stops in National Parks. Surprisingly like the stations, you still have access to hot showers and flushing toilets! How luxe. Home Valley Hills Rustys Bar and Grill was still relaxing, 11 years after we first arrived at Home Valley Station. However, even

Camp at Home Valley Station, Western Australia

We only stayed one night at Home Valley Station on the Gibb River Road, Western Australia – but it is a place I would love to return here to The Kimberley. Why? 1. It was the location we decided to continue our lap of Australia. Initially we had seven weeks – we had worked and played our way through outback NSW, touching the Murray in Victoria and South Australia – travelling up the centre and looping through the Top End. Relaxed, at this bar, we decided to keep going! And we did. 2. We received an upgrade! They were revamping

Ellenbrae Station covers 1 million acres in the Kimberley, Western Australia. Approximately 230km from Kununurra on one of Australia’s must-see destinations, the Gibb River Road.

All you need to know to camp on the Darling River Run 2 – Louth to Tilpa

Darling River Run, south of Tilpa, NSW Decisions really begin once you leave Bourke (and once the road dried up enough!) – do you follow the road west or east of for your Darling River Run? West takes you to Toorale National Park, a relatively new one, with an old history. Instead, we continued east. If you are short on time, I would make the most of the Station Stay camping rather than national parks here, to maximise those Darling views. Crossing the rivers at Louth and Tilpa we explore more stations and pubs. Our Darling River Run roadtrip continues

Darling River Run Greats: Dunlop Station, Louth, New South Wales

A century ago, the massive Dunlop Station spanned one million acres! Now only a fraction of the size, we are all invited in to tour and camp here. This station stay near Louth, New South Wales made it to our top 10 list for our four month winter trip! Here’s why: 1. Privacy Sites are private and well spread out. We had the Graveyard Camp – all sites have their own moniker. 2. History plus Thanks Kim for an excellent, personal tour of the historic homestead. I loved the cellar, and documents and maps. Notably, it was the first full

Put Rose Isle Station on your list for the Darling River Run in New South Wales

Thanks Samantha and Gary for the BEST night at Rose Isle Station! Owners Samantha and Gary could not have been more welcoming! We arrived in time for morning tea – which was so much more than tea and scones. Two varieties of scones, impossible pie, pumpkin fritters, lemon meringue pies, and another cake! This is put on every second day! Lucky we planned a strenuous walk up Mt Gundabooka! We sat out in the winter sun with other travellers for a chat whilst we ate, comparing notes on this epic road trip. The camp kitchen has a fireplace/chimney and a
