Adele Grove

We also tried to make contact a week or two ago and couldn't even get through. Phone was dead and email wasn't much better. My understanding is that it has changed hands recently and it seems that there are some problems in the new owners getting sorted. Read on a traveller's blog where someone stayed there last week and said the road was ok and they had a great time. Long way to go with no certainty though but I think we'll try it anyhow. Gregory is the fall back if we can't get in.

Yes , sold to the indigenous company which operates nearby Lawn Hill Station. I spent a couple of weeks working at Adels Grove in 2019 after the fire. It had been a devastating event, but the Grove owners & worker community were pulling together to keep things running in difficult circumstances. They were a good bunch of folk but had a lot of rebuilding ahead of them. I was not hugely surprised when I heard of the sale. Sad as the owners had had many years invested in the place. I am uncertain how much of the rebuilding had been completed at the time of the sale. The current difficulties in getting staff for these sort of outback places can’t be helping.
