Drought Buster Deals!  10 Top Outback Farmstays

Farm or station stays are a fantastic way for you to experience life on the land. Whether it is shearing sheep, mustering cattle, or riding horses, farm or station stays offer a unique holiday experience which are both, challenging and rewarding.

With prices starting from as little as $35 per person, per night, compared to other holiday options, outback farmstays offer great value for money with unparalleled fun. On the farm, children can ride, run, create, build, dig, explore, adventure and imagine. While there are plenty of things to do to keep them busy, it will be the games and the experience they create for themselves which they will truly remember.

For the grown ups, try your hand at helping out with farm activities, or if relaxation is what you are after, farmstays boast great walking tracks, bird watching, photographic opportunities, spectacular views, brilliant sunsets, and at some, there are natural baths to soak in.
