Search hotels in Burra

An interesting town; we were hoping to do the Historic tour of 9 facilities with key-access but ran out of time. And then we found out that it was going to cost us $30.00 per person, 7 people all going to the same places together, plus a $50.00, obviously returnable, security deposit for the key, so that money went towards dinner at the Burra Hotel. 4 hotels in town, we managed to "try" them all. The ONLY thing lacking in Burra is somewhere that you can easily buy beer, wine & spirits. Yes, you can get these across the bar but a specific outlet would give people a better choice. We were having a beer outside 1 of the hotels, a couple arrived in their 4WD wanting to buy some wine. They went into that hotel & came out empty-handed. We were in the same boat when looking for something specific for someone; it was a "no" across all 4 hotels.

Burra is a town with an amazing mining history. It is full of houses that are up to 150 years old. When in Burra, buy the Burra Passport from the tourist information centre. It provides access to the main tourist attractions including the mine site, Bon Accord museum, Redruth Gaol and the miner’s dugouts.

Love the history of Burra. Good shops for such a small country town. Dining was excellent. Information ℹ️ office staff very helpful. Went to all the key sites which is good value. Burra is a must see.

Burra has all the facitities for people to easily access their historic town. The idea of buying a key that lets you travel from site to site at your own pace is fantastic. The cafes are great, bakery is good, art gallery always has an interesting display and the pub meal was good value.

Wonderful historic town showcasing its mining history and daily life back in the day. Beautiful stone buildings, a lovely town square, shops, pubs/food. The information center was helpful with locating our ancestor buried in the local cemetery. Recommend a 1-2 night stay at least.

The town is very cute. St Just cafe fabulous. Really enjoyed"Keys to the town" self tour. Really enjoyed beautiful scenery of Burra Conservation park. Stay in Paxton Square cottages- fabulous.
