The William Creek Hotel is one of the world’s most remote pubs. It started in the late 1880s as a boarding house then became a store and wine bar and, at some later date, a hotel. Clean and comfortable air-conditioned accommodation is available and the atmospheric front bar boasts mementos and memorabilia of the many travellers who have passed through. William Creek lies within the world’s largest pastoral station, Anna Creek, and is the closest settlement to Lake Eyre North.
