Review of Fraser Range Station

In 2019 we stopped here.

In 2019 we stopped here.
We had the new cabin accommodation, which was quite nice, especially considering the outback location. Ample room with 2 tub chairs and small coffee table, but no lounge nor kitchen utensils or cooking facilities, but there is a camp kitchen. We booked in to the dining area for the evening meal, so not having kitchen in the cabin was not an issue for us.

In 2014
The room we had was in the old shearers quarters and being fairly small rooms, there was no room for much more than the bed, which was large and comfortable. There were two large pillows and these could be used as back rests against the bedhead to read. The quarters were quaint though. We enjoyed the stay and used it again on the return Nullarbor drive.

The toilet and shower block was in another building and shared with other guests.

A communal kitchen was provided, but a roast was on offer for $25 a head and we opted for that. It was very tasty, although we both found the gravy and baked potatoes too salty for our taste. We also stayed on the return Nullarbor drive and the menu this time was Shepherds Pie, which was good, although still a bit salty.
