Savernake Station

Savernake Station is a heritage farm property that covers 400 hectares of rural land in inland New South Wales. The site contains traditional farm buildings set among pastoral grasslands and native pine woodlands that together show what a working property looked like.

Alexander Sloane founded the station in 1862 and built it into a major sheep farming operation with nearly 5000 animals by the following year. The property became an important part of inland agricultural development during the early colonial period.

The property shows signs of Pangerang Indigenous presence through marked trees and shell deposits along the creek. These traces tell of people who lived on this land long before European settlement began.

The property sits along Mulwala Road and offers overnight stays in a restored 1912 cottage with updated facilities for visitors. The remote rural location means you will need a car to reach it from larger towns.

The station holds a large collection of farming tools, household items, and photographs that record daily work and life since the early days. These archives offer a detailed view of how rural living and farming practices evolved across the generations.
