Dutchmans stern: Quorns best kept secret.

I must admit, when I first spoke to the National Parks about renting Dutchmans stern for 3 nights, I thought it was pretty expensive. Since staying there though, I think it is one of the best accommodations we have ever stayed in and it is great value for money. We will definitely be going back at some stage.

This is the outside of the shearers quarters. There are two houses. We stayed in the shearers quarters and Di and Mark stayed in the homestead.

Here is the main living area in the shearers quarters:
The master bedroom was great. The bed was super comfortable and the room was a nice size.
Because Christopher and I had sore throats, we didn't do any walks on the second or third day. Steve took lots of photos though.

Here is Tom and Brigette looking for tadpoles at warrens gorge.
Here is Daniel standing up the top of Dutchmans stern.

Hi Therese,
Wow - it looks beautiful, and there's so much to do and see around Quorn - might have to take a trip up there sometime soon.
Blessings,

Our sons Tom and Christopher and our daughter Amelia are type one diabetics. We pray everyday for a cure. We do not want one by illicit means though so don't support any organisation that contributes to Embryonic Stem Cell Research. Click on the photo of Tom and Christopher to read about why I am against using Embryonic Stem cells for a cure.
