Comments from recent guests "We just wanted to thank you for the lovely couple of days we had at Woollamia Village Retreat. You have a fantastic set up there and we were so happy with the cottage we stayed in.It was extremely comfortable and well laid out. We felt like we had been away from the hustle & bustle of Sydney for a couple of weeks instead of a couple of days. We can see why you have won those Tourism Awards. Keep up the good work. We think you have set the benchmark for accommodation on the South Coast. Cheers!"
As see on Sydney Weekender with Mike Whitney. Also on the Great Outdoors with Ernie Dingo.
Come and try it for yourself, experience the way life used to be! Ideal for group bookings! The great escape is just so close to Jervis Bay! We can arrange a Dolphin or Whale (seasonal) watching cruises with any booking.
If you let your imagination take you to a "Quaint Country Village" from Australia's past,in fact its all new having been built from the ground up from 1998 to 2005 to represent Australia as it was at Federation time (1901).
