Jillaroo's Cottage: Once home for the station’s Jackaroos and Jillaroos, this cottage has been transformed from its once humble beginnings to very comfortable self- contained guest accommodation. This fully renovated, air-conditioned and heated cottage is also 2 bedroom (one queen room and a twin room) - though smaller than the Overseer's Cottage, with your private bathroom a few steps outside your door. There's a fascinating story as to why... Liz will tell you when you arrive. The Jillaroo's Cottage is situated by the pool and you can choose to self cater or enjoy Liz's home cooked meals - delivered to your cottage.

Rates: from AU$100 double - self catering and $125 per person for dinner, bed and breakfast.

Shearer's Bunkhouse: New shearer’s quarters were established on Trilby Station after the original building was destroyed by fire and today’s shearer’s would be hard pressed to find more comfortable lodgings anywhere. There is a total of 9 twin share bedrooms - the six inside bedrooms have reverse cycle air-conditioning and the three older bedrooms outside have fans, all have electric blankets and linen. With a slow combustion wood fire, caterer’s size kitchen, TV and DVD player, share bathrooms and laundry, a huge paved campfire area and gazebo – the Shearer’s Bunkhouse is ideal for large fishing parties and groups. Our collection of historic memorabilia and photos are housed here at the Bunkhouse.

Rates:from AU$35pp twin share. Long stay and group discounts apply

Powered Sites and Riverside Camp Sites: Caravanning and camping trailers are a very popular means of travel these days and Trilby Station caters to these clients by offering powered sites with a gas BBQ, gazebo, paved campfire area and bathroom facilities. All accommodation is almost riverside... the Darling River.

They also offer secluded river campsites - with names such as Coonong, Winbar, Nortons and Hora.... named after paddocks on the station. These campsites, all with a cleared campfire area and rubbish bin, are spread out among the red river gum and coolabah trees on the banks of the river, ensuring you feel total seclusion. Bathroom and laundry facilities are back at the Shearer’s Bunkhouse… you are also quite welcome to take a dip in the new swimming pool.

Following the flood events of 2011 and 2012, the nearby billabong is now once again full. Campsites along the banks are fantastic ... set up camp right on the waters edge, sit back, relax and watch the sun set over the water while your yabby pots are filling at your feet. Liz has her canoes and kayaks ready for use on the billabong, a mightly 7km paddle around its perimeter.
