Australia and New Zealand’s Farms and Outback Stations are a unique collection of properties providing a window into the heart and soul of the country. No two are remotely the same though all are charming, intimate and authentic, a place where visitors are assured of a warm welcome.

Delightful examples of colonial architecture share the elegance of a by-gone era. Owners, whose ancestors were the original pioneers, share the warmth of New Zealand’s country life. Sporting lodges boasting world class fly fishing and impressive wine cellars, working sheep stations with stunning coastal views, a pastoral ranch surrounded by spectacular alpine scenery – altogether, a series of memorable experiences for anyone touring the country – especially those who enjoy good food, fine wine and genuine hospitality.

People who have never been to Australia somehow know they will be impressed by the country’s vast landscapes and sense of space. What few realise is just how well they will be looked after, even in remote wilderness areas. Beyond the tourist trail – sometimes hundreds of thousands of acres in size - rarely do these special places appear on a map, but nearly always they will remain ingrained in your memories forever.

Campfires, tall stories, jackaroos and pioneering legends, this is where the great Australian spirit comes alive. Join in the sheep shearing, try helifishing for barramundi or just sit back on the verandah watching the shifting moods and spectacular sunsets in the immense outback sky.
