We loved our stay. The house is perfectly private and has everything you need. The views from the balcony are beautiful, the fire pit was a great touch and we were given an early check in and late check out. Highly recommend for a weekend in nature.
Thanks for having us!

Historical Hike At Convict Trail
This convict trail hike is truly unique, It takes us along the Old Great North Road, an amazing feat of engineering that was built by convicts in the 1830’s to link Sydney with the Hunter Region. The information panel along the walk really does bring history to the history to life. It's like we walked into an open-air museum with some engaging convict stories.
Only 30 min drive from Berry Hill to Wiseman ferry, this walk is very accessible. To get the most out of this trail (and understand more of the history), we recommend making a big loop that includes Finchs Line - the original road which was in use before the Great North Road. This circuit gives you a better grasp of the Great North Road’s history and is more scenic.

The Convicts Trail
This area of Hawkesbury is steeped in history, none more so than the Convicts Trail at Wisemans Ferry. The Convicts Trail was built by, believe it or not, convicts who were sent to build Australia's infrastructure in the 1800s. The trail takes you on a journey of their experience, including Hangman's Rock which has a rather sinister story attached.
