Exploring these authentic former shearers’ quarters, you can’t help feeling you’re a part of the park’s former life as a functioning sheep station. Imagine the click of the shears as you share a meal in the communal kitchen/dining room, or relax and have a yarn in the central courtyard.
Mungo Shearers’ Quarters has 2 rooms with 3 bunk beds, 2 rooms with a queen and 2 bunk beds, and 1 room with a queen bed and 1 single bed. There's also a shared toilet block and hot showers.
