Property Description
With spectacular views of Wilpena Pound, Rawnsley Park Station’s luxury Eco-Villas provide the perfect base for exploring South Australia’s Flinders Ranges. Architect designed and environmentally friendly, these stylish, contemporary villas are set on a private and secluded site with commanding views of the surrounding Flinders Ranges. Other features include a retractable ceiling offering night-sky viewing from the comfort of your bed, wide verandahs with private deck, and fully equipped gourmet kitchens.
Accommodation includes luxury eco-villas, holiday units, a caravan park and some of the best campsites you'll find in the Flinders Ranges.
Features of the property include:
- dinner at The Woolshed overlooking the red sandstone of Wilpena Pound.
- picnic hampers and in room dining available
-4WD tours
- scenic flights
- cycling and bushwalking trails
- day tour of Flinders Ranges National Park with your experienced local guide. Explore the story of life in South Australia’s largest mountain range. Discover an unspoiled world of early life on earth, national parks, fossils and Aboriginal heritage in this ancient and beautiful area.
- breathtaking views and rare native wildlife like the yellow-footed rock wallaby and Australia’s largest marsupial – the Red Kangaroo.
Environmentally Friendly Initiatives:
Committed to environmentally responsible and sustainable tourism, Tony and Julieanne recently entered into a Heritage Agreement with the South Australian Department of Environment and Heritage in order to protect the diverse vegetation of Rawnsley Bluff. Their substantial financial investment into the new Rawnsley Park eco-villas is further evidence of this commitment.
The eco-villas: Designed to complement the natural surroundings, the villas have the latest environmental design features.Rendered straw bale walls, polished timber floors over suspended concrete slabs, overhanging eaves/wide verandahs to provide shaded walls. Windows and doors have been located to allow for cooling breezes to pass through the entire building. Raked ceilings and natural exhaust venting at the apex of the ceiling space provide natural cooling efficiency. The villas have also been designed to take advantage of the large diurnal temperature range that is experienced in the Flinders Ranges. Concrete slab floor and rendered straw bale walls provide thermal mass that minimises temperature variation within the villas.

"What a wonderful, glorious, refreshing and romantic setting. From the soak in the bath for the weary traveler, to the star-filled night lying in bed, and the breath-taking view at sunrise. Amazing!"
