About Mount Bundy Station
Mount Bundy Station is a historic working cattle station and accommodation property near Adelaide River, about an hour south of Darwin off the Stuart Highway. Originally established as a buffalo and cattle operation in the late 1800s, today the station combines a small cattle herd with a guest accommodation arm — cabins, camping, a swimming pool, and station tours. The dual setup means backpacker work here qualifies under either tourism/hospitality or animal cultivation, depending on the role.
Work at Mount Bundy Station includes housekeeping for the guest cabins, reception, kitchen and breakfast service, station hand work on the cattle side (yard work, fencing, water troughs, feed runs), and grounds maintenance. The postcode 0822 area is firmly inside designated Northern Australia regional zone, so all roles qualify toward the 88-day requirement under 417 and 462 subclasses. Pay aligns with the relevant award — Hospitality for hotel-side roles, Pastoral for station-side work — and casual rates with loadings apply.
