About the hotel

Embrace the spirit of the outback in style at Mt. Mulligan Lodge, a 69,000-acre working cattle station and proud member of the Luxury Lodges of Australia collection. Set in the shadow of spectacular Mt. Mulligan – known to Indigenous people as Ngarrabullgan – the lodge promises guests laidback five-star luxury amid the untamed natural scenery of North Queensland’s outback. With accommodation for just 28 guests, service is highly personalised, with onsite dining tailored to your schedule and tastes and bespoke bush experiences on offer for those special moments.

With the imposing ridges of Mt. Mulligan as a backdrop, a site of indigenous significance dating back 37,000 years, this is the ideal location to get away from it all. Slow down the pace, reconnect with nature and truly appreciate the beauty of this enchanting location. Zip across the property in your own personal golf buggy, which will take you to the Sunset Bar in no time to enjoy a glass of premium Australian sparkling wine while the sun sinks below the horizon. Sitting on the water’s edge of a eucalyptus-fringed weir, the lodge’s natural timber exterior melts into the environment, with an infinity pool the cherry on top of this indulgent outback stay.
