Elquestro Homestead - Kimberley - Australia
The luxury of El Questro Homestead sits in stark contrast to
Western Australia's rugged Kimberley landscape surrounding it -
one million acres of the most spectacularly remote countryside in
the world.
Explore the 200 foot escarpments of the ancient Chamberlain
Gorge by boat. Take a helicopter to remote waterholes in search of
the prized barramundi, or view the magnificent beehive-shaped
sandstone formations of the World Heritage-listed Bungle Bungles.
Book a table for two on a private cliff top, take a gourmet
picnic to a pristine rock pool, or share a bottle of Champagne by
a cascading waterfall. El Questro Homestead's ever-changing menu
of contemporary cuisine and wine is served to guests in the
setting of their choice.
After exploring places few have ever seen in this dramatic land
of extremes, there's always a chance to relax and ponder it all.
Soak away your cares in the thermal Zebedee Springs. Curl up under
an ancient boab tree with a book, or simply join the local wallaby
population and lounge in the shade.
Look forward to some breathtaking experiences at El Questro,
your homestead.
Voyages El Questro Homestead is open from 1 April 2008 - 31
October 2008.
