Mataranka Homestead is a unique outback retreat set among lush tropical gardens and natural thermal pools in the Northern Territory.

A key attraction is the Homestead replica, famously featured in the film "We of the Never Never", offering visitors a glimpse into the region's pioneering history. The property offers 24 motel rooms and 14 self-contained cabins with kitchens, as well as campsites for a range of travellers.

Guests can enjoy Maluka's Bar, open daily from 8am to 10pm serving breakfast, lunch, dinner, and tap beer, along with Jeannie's Kitchen featuring a curated menu and daily pizza oven.

Visitors can relax, explore the Roper River, and experience the true spirit of the outback, including encounters with their iconic peacocks!
