Wooleen Station

In the heart of the dramatic Murchison region, Wooleen Station represents the very heart and soul of Australia's outback.

Covering over a quarter of a million acres of picturesque outback, Wooleen Station Stay is a cattle station that is playing a leading role in preserving and sustaining the unique ecology of the region.

Listed by the Australian National Trust, the Homestead offers a luxurious way to experience the Australian outback.

With delicious home-style cooking, a vast cellar of Western Australian wines and a magnificent formal dining room, you are assured of a culinary experience of Australian outback you will not forget. And after dinner, you can enjoy the full-size Billiard table.

The 1200sqm Homestead with wide colonial verandahs is nestled in an oasis of spectacular, landscaped gardens. Surrounding heritage buildings and walking trails create a one-of-a-kind opportunity to look back in time to the hey-day of the Murchison region.

The Homestead

Surrounded by colonial verandas the homestead is set amongst an oasis of landscaped gardens. The homestead is a true experience and insight into station life as owners and hosts, David and Frances, live in house along with their guests.

The Guesthouses

The buildings use new, natural and recycled materials. Many of the doors and windows were rescued from an old homestead in the region. This mix of materials creates a character building with the freshness of new accommodation.

Camping

Set up your tent, camper trailer or caravan at the Murchison River. Each site has a fire-pit, and your well-behaved dog is welcome at the river. Sign our commitment to country and help achieve land rehabilitation and sustainable grazing on Wooleen.

Wooleen Lake and its heritage listed Wetlands is a semi-permanent home to a vast array of animal and bird life when its full and when its dry.

In Spring, the land comes to life with a multitude of wildflowers after the correct winter rainfall. The Murchison River runs through the Station, only a short drive from the Homestead.

Wooleen's nature-based station stay offers a multitude of experiences, from colonial and Aboriginal heritage tourism to nature based tours.

The vegetation and the quality of the land make the property one of the finest stations in Australia. This is a new kind of holiday. If you are interested in ecology and the culture of the Australian bush then Wooleen is the place for you.
