Rawnsley Park Station

Booked the Highlights package to celebrate a special WA. Stayed in an Eco Villa (amazing), did the 8hr 4WD tour, but sadly the 30min flight over the Flinders was cancelled due to a plane issue (full refund provided immediately by reception). If you want something very special (though not cheap) this is the way to go. However, the park offers every kind of accommodation from free camping sites to cabins, and they are in differest areas so you really do feel the openess of the area. The whole process from booking, confirmation emails, relevant information on our stay, arrival (reception staff friendly & knowledgeable), to checking out was so professional and smooth. Our 4WD Tour guide (Rachel) was super friendly and easy going, knowledgeable and you could just tell she loves working there and we were all amazed to see the wildlife and the landscape. It is close to Wilpena Pound (NP Day Pass $10), Hawker 30mins south, the Gorges (easy 4WD roads), so many lookouts, and Blinman (have to taste the pies at Blinman Hotel) is only an hours drive north, as well as so many walking tracks on the property itself. So just book a stay, you wont be disappointed.

Out of the three places we stayed during our Flinders Ranges tour (Wilpena and Arkaroola being the other two), we liked Rawnsley's Park best. We went for a hike just after arriving from Adelaide and loved the quiet beauty of the landscape, the countless kangaroos on the hill just behind the cabins and were treated to a magical sunset which soaked the entire landscape and the Bluff in beautiful, golden light. The food at the Woolshed was the best we had in the Flinders Ranges (bangers and mash... so good), and we enjoyed the warm, cosy atmosphere in the restaurant on a cold, rainy night. Our waitress was lovely and provided us with several bottles of drinking water. The best surprise was that they had heated mattress pads in the beds of our room - we really didn't want to leave the bed the next morning! The room was spacious, the shower hot and the kitchen fully equipped. The power went out twice but they fixed it promptly. Our only regret is that we didn't have more time to enjoy this magical place and go hiking more. I'd highly recommend it as a stop in the Flinders Ranges.

We stayed recently for our anniversary. Everything you need in the units, very comfortable, great restaurant on site, and lots to see and do in the area. The climb up Rawnsley Bluff was tough but the views are worth it. A great place to stay in the Flinders! Highly recommended!

The only place close to the Ikara-Flinders Ranges NP that is dog-friendly. The location is beautiful. The 3 bed cabin was large enough for the two of us and our two large dogs to spread out and relax. The cooking facilities are fine. Wifi was slow. Our only real criticism is that it's very expensive. The Woolshed restaurant was very nice, but pretty expensive, so we only went the first night we arrived.

We camped in the bush camping area over the long weekend. Such a beautiful place to unwind with the family. The views are spectacular and the park has everything you could possibly need. There were 2 flushing toilets a 5 minute walk from our camp which felt like a luxury. |The shower/toilet blocks were very clean and tidy.|We would reccomend this park to anyone!

The park is perfectly located with wonderful views. Amenities were as you would expect of a semi remote location. Clean and usable. Nice fireplaces and they supply wood for a fair price. A few basic items in the shop and the pool was nice.|Was our second stay and we would stay here again for sure.

Loved the whole experience and proximity to all the great places that are around Wilpenna Pound. Sites were amazing and if we had been before would have selected one of the more remote sites available on the property but didnt know they existed. Amenities were kept and presented clean and showers were awesome. Great walks close by also.

We recently spent 11 nights here, 8 on a powered sites, then 3 on a bush camp. We have been twice before and absolutely love it here. It is so central to everything and the walking tracks are great. Dog friendly which is a big plus. Just such beautiful surroundings. Staff are helpful and amenities are clean. Thanks for a great stay.
