Description

Bullo River Station is in the northwestern corner of the Northern Territory near the Western Australian border. Encircled by the coffee coloured waters of the Victoria River and rugged hills inscribed with Aboriginal rock art, this vast property is not only home to around 9000 Brahman-cross cattle but also a stunning variety of local fauna species including wallabies, dingoes, wild buffalo, a myriad of native and migratory birds, fish and the omnipresent crocodile. The ‘Boab’ is Bullo’s symbol and these proud trees dot the entire property lending their stature to what is already an impressive landscape.

Access is possible by 4wd vehicle or by air charter with transfers arranged accordingly.

A purpose built guest area consists of twelve double/twin rooms each with air-conditioning and en suite facilities. Located a few metres from the main house, all rooms have sliding door access to the lawns surrounding the homestead. Of course, guests are welcome to enjoy full access to the vast living areas of the homestead plus use of the swimming pool.

Breakfasts are usually served outside on the homestead verandah with dinners in the main dining room. Dinners are informal and the menu relies heavily on the two exceptional products of the property, namely fresh barramundi (hopefully one you have caught yourself) and organic prime beef.

Filling your days is never a chore at Bullo. Our friendly and capable team will arrange all your activities tailor-made each day to suit your wishes. We’ll accompany you on river cruises up the spectacular Bullo River Gorge to fish or spot crocodiles, help you interpret local aboriginal rock art, or introduce you to the hundreds of bird species that call Bullo home. You might like to try cattle mustering or horse riding depending on your riding ability and on the station’s mustering schedule.

We can also arrange optional helicopter trips for aerial sight seeing. For those keen on fishing, there are great opportunities for river and coastal fishing, with unique chances to access untouched local areas by boat or helicopter. All activities on offer are included in the nightly rate with additional cost only for helicopter trips. Most activities will include an alfresco picnic lunch, allowing you to explore the far reaches of the property or to spend more time enjoying your chosen activity. Light meals are accompanied with a selection of soft drinks and the obligatory billy tea!
