One of Australia’s newest Outback retreats (which opened its doors in August 2004), Wrotham Park combines the rich heritage of Australia’s rural history with station life, stunning landscapes and the luxuries of a boutique and stylish lodge. Located 300kms west of Cairns on a sprawling 600,000 hectare working cattle station in Outback Queensland (accessible via a 40 minute light aircraft charter from Cairns), Wrotham Park caters for no more than 20 people in ten stylish guest ‘Quarters’, each of which enjoy a spectacular setting on an escarpment overlooking the Mitchell River. Each of the ten luxurious ‘Quarters’ benefit from king-size beds, air-conditioning, comfy armchairs, sound systems – and decks complete with relaxing day beds. In true Australian Outback style, the ‘Homestead’ is the communal heart of the property – the perfect place to enjoy warm hospitality, magnificent Outback views and to relax on the poolside deck or around the fire. The working station itself is a 40 minute drive from the Homestead and Quarters – and half day station tours can be arranged. Station life aside, horse-riding, canoeing, fishing, nature walks, star gazing, mountain biking and superb food and wine are all part of the Wrotham experience. Wrotham Park Lodge is open from 1st April – 30th November each year. Children 12 years and under are not catered for.
