Bullara station is equipped and set up for powered and unpowered camping. There are more unpowered sites than powered sites so booking in advance is essential.
We chose to park on an unpowered site, this still gave us access to water but not a continous hook up to our van. We had to fill the van by hand using a 10 litre water container, which wasn’t that difficult and only took about 15 minutes every second day.
For power we had our van set up on solar and we used a generator during the day for our air conditioner but on those hot balmy nights with no breeze is when you can really feel the outback Bullara Station stay heat.
If you are planning to stay in an unpowered site then be prepared that towards the end of the year it does reach temperatures of up 37 degrees and over. So yes it does get a tad warm.
Bullara Station states they have no drinking water available but I ran the bore water through our filtered taps for more than three weeks. I spoke to the staff who had been living here for more than seven years and they had also been running this water through their tanks. They were all for it and so was I!
The water is artesian bore water which is drinkable water but just doesn’t pass the standard from the water board.

The station also offers chalets which can be hired out. These again require booking via their website.
