Deepwater Station today
Deepwater Station is 2km outside Deepwater has been in the Macansh family for 150 years.
At 1625 hectares, Deepwater Station is still very much a working farm, running 7000 superfine merino sheep and 270 Hereford/Angus cross cattle. We breed all our own sheep and cattle and they are all paddock run and grassfed.
While maintaining a commercial basis, our focus is to maximise animal welfare, naturally regenerate our soils and run the property as chemically free as possible.
Getting Here
Deepwater Station is just outside the village of Deepwater NSW which is on the New England Highway just a 4 hour drive south west from Brisbane, a 3.5 hour drive west from Byron Bay, or a 7.5 hour drive north from Sydney. As we are on the New England Highway the roads are very good and we are easy to find.
Buses to Deepwater or flying to Armidale and then driving are also both options.
As we are only 2.5 hours drive inland from the North Coast of NSW, it is easy to combine a farmstay with the family’s beach holiday.
