Bullara Station

Bullara Station

After updating the blog in the middle of the Exmouth shopping centre and fuelling up we headed to Bullara Station approximately 90 km south of Exmouth. On Arrival we were warmly greeted by our hostess Edwina Shallcross and then left to find our site. After setting up, the kids were in "build a fire" mode and quickly had the fire on the go, whilst Les from Bendigo ordered me to sit down and prescribed a Melbourne Bitter.  Who can argue with that?   Very quickly we had settled in to life at Bullara and everyone agreed we needed to stay an extra night.  Everyone showered in the Bullara bathrooms, rustic? Yes.  Clean?  Yes.   Huge showerheads?   Yes.  The best thing ever?   No, but an honourable mention is deserved.

Boy heaven, fires and night bike riding!

The next Morning we cooked breakfast and chilled out. Station owner Tim Shallcross bought down a Stimsons Python found at the homestead to show the kids before relocating it. Will vanished and ran with the Bullara Crew all day and had a ball. Later in the day the barber shop opened for Kurt and myself before the boys joined Tim and friends for some motorbike rides in the nearby red dunes. And then again for about the fourth time in a day and a half, more showers. Bullara station is well recommended as a good place to stop and unwind. Many people like us stop for a night and stay more. We shall return, no doubt.
