We loved our family stay at the shed shearing farm and will defentinley be back in future for such a unique exsperince!
David (Host) was very caring a accomadating during our stay and kept us informed with the weather.
The hot baths were amazing, nice to relax in while hearing, seing sheep and watching the sun go down was very refreshing after a long day travelling. There is a few goats that like to be around your camp site and are friendly.

We loved our time at Dunblane Station- Nickos camp.
Whilst it was very hot when we stayed there, it was still a great camp. Not far off the road but far enough that the road noise isn’t intrusive. Surrounded by grasslands and sheep, we had a very relaxing 3 days. To top it off the Fire Bath is amazing! We didn’t heat it up as the weather was so hot but it was very refreshing and enjoyable to sit I. The deep bath and watch the world go by.

We had an absolutely incredible time at Dunblane.
From welcoming messages giving clear directions for how to access our campsite and facilities to his arrival shortly after ours, David was a great host and actively involved my two young teenaged boys and I in some genuine farm work, helping him to sort his sheep into their yards.
After some pretty intensive labour we soaked our hard working bones in his deep artesian baths that had to be filled up in the afternoon to allow them time to cool for the evening - that’s how hot the artesian water is!
Not going to lie, the amenities - as is clearly stated from the outset - are not terribly appealing! We used our own toilet and shower. I wouldn’t recommend relying on those that are there, although they are available if need be. Best to go out fully self contained and just enjoy the genuine farm experience, the gorgeous sunset over David’s expansive land, and the relaxing hot baths at the end of the day.
We would do it all over again and will be back if we ever get the chance.

Great spot so close to town but you feel like you’re miles away. Not used to the sound of sheep so that was very cool. The fire tub is brilliant. What an amazing way to watch the sun go down. Thanks!

We had a fabulous two nights at Dunblane station. David was so nice and welcoming. The artesian baths were great! The sheering was happening during our stay, which really added to our experience! Our little boys got to cuddle baby lambs and get involved with the workers. Would definitely stay again!

Our stay at Dunblane was such a wonderful experience. We stayed at the shearing shed and arrived at around 5pm just in time to set up and enjoy the sunset from the artesian baths. Then as the sun went down and the sky darkened you get to experience the most amazing sky filled with stars. There was no one else around which made it even more spectacular. We sent David a message as we were arriving and he popped down to welcome us and tell us a bit about his farm. Everything was really well thought out and they have plenty of info on site for you to drive straight in and set up and to learn about the way of life on their property. We will definitely stay again if we are in the area. Thanks David!

Camping at Dunblane is an outback experience that the average city slicker should not miss. David is a very accommodating host and the Jack and Jillaroo experience gives you a real sense of life on a sheep station. The hot artesian baths are the cherry on top and I highly recommend staying at the Shearers shed as well as McBrides for two unique locations. Stepping into the shearers shed is a genuine privilege and the animals that come to the waterhole at McBrides is wonderful. Can’t rave highly enough and so grateful to be able to stay here on our outback adventure.

What a great place to stop, so rustic and beautiful. We setup out the back of the wool shed and it was all so cool to see, smell and walk through the shearing shed to really experience how things work.
Dave was an excellent host, the kids had so many questions as did we.
We will definitely be back next time we are heading through

Great location. Afternoon shade of the woodshed was excellent. Watching the sunset from the artesian bath was sensational. If you are interested in birds it’s a winner. Toilet & shower facilities are basic, so you need to be self sufficient. David is a wonderful host and provided us with a terrific overview of his local farming knowledge. The stars at night were blinding. Loved it, we will be back. Thanks David for unique experience. Highly recommend.

David is a great host.
Facilities are a bit rough, it’s a shearing shed after all.
Baths were fantastic!
We did the self drive tour of the property. Very enjoyable and map commentary is entertaining.
Highly recommended 👍

Loved our 2 night stay. Wandering about the shed and bicycling around the paddock. Close to the highway but wasn't a problem. Bath under the stars was spectacular. They are building some new bathsites nearby, hope they dont encroach on the privacy of baths. Might benefit from some more solid screening. Thanks Dave.

Camping beside the shearing shed was a great experience. The bore baths were an added bonus which we enjoyed every afternoon we stayed. It was wonderful to do a little peaceful camping without the crowds.

Incredible - thank you Dunblane. We stayed at the shearing shed which was an outback experience that we wanted. The artesian water is a favourite of ours so the bathtubs were a highlight. Our dog loved the freedom she had. Can certainly recommend a stay at Dunblane 👍
