Introduction

Angorichina Station
With 250 square miles of spectacular country in the Flinders Ranges, Angorichna is a medium sized (!) outback sheep station run by Ian and Di Fargher. As the third generation of Farghers on the property, they know the country better than anyone and will welcome you into their home, the old stone homestead at Angorichna, and show you the secret spots on their property.

Nestled at the foot of the Elder Range, Arkaba Station is the home of Dean and Lizzie Rasheed, whose family have long been part of the region’s history. The station provides some of the most spectacular panoramas in Australia, best enjoyed with a chilled glass of wine from the top of the ranges at dusk, as the sun sets across the outback plains.
BelltreesAerialriver.jpg (15841 bytes) Belltrees Station
Belltrees is synonymous with the development of Australia’s wool industry and the wealth it generated in the late 19
th century. The White family has owned the property since 1850. The country house, itself an old White family homestead, has been restored to a level of comfort not found elsewhere in rural Australia.

Burrawang West Station
Legendary Burrawang West Station stretches across 10,000 acres of Lachlan River country in Central New South Wales. The fully-operational cattle station produces some of Australia's finest quality beef and is the home of the premium brand, Burrawang Beef.

The home of the Ashton family, and the 8,000 acre sheep property on which it stands, provide one of Australia’s finest heritage stays. When the Ashton brothers first came to Markdale in 1920, they not only developed a fine pastoral country, but also the birthplace of polo in Australia.
Gill Range2 Web.JPG (19746 bytes) Ooraminna Station
When the overland telegraph line was built in 1884, revolutionizing communications between London and her far-flung dominion, Bill Hayes’ great grandfather was with the team. With their station encompassing half a million acres of cattle country in central Australia, the 6 th generation of the Hayes family now lives at Ooraminna.
PorteeHomesteadDusk Web.jpg (57978 bytes) Portee Station
Edward John Eyre, one of Australia’s greatest explorers first settled Portee as a sheep grazing property in 1841. The station remains a commercial sheep property of over 40,000 acres and while Eyre’s old homestead no longer stands, the current homestead, built almost 130 years ago, is one of the most picturesque properties on the Murray.
wpe1B.jpg (14805 bytes) Punnyart Station
Puunyart, one of Victoria’s oldest properties, has been farmed by the Wilson family since the 1930s. You can spend the day seeing the daily activities of this 2,500 acre property, watching sheep dogs at work, seeing the shearing in season and learning how to select the finest quality Australian wool.
