Beautiful location and perfect place to disconnect from the world for a few days.
The solar lights that are around the property add that extra bit of magic at night!

Hike At Shepherds Gully
The long, gentle climb along Shepherd’s Gully has some beautiful scenery and some historic remnants of the Old Great North Road. The optional side trip to Hangmans Rock takes you past an old convict stockade site and some of the construction remnants on the main Devines Hill ascent.
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.
Bike Riding
Head to Devines Hill loop in Dharug National Park, near Wisemans Ferry for a bike ride or walk along the historic World Heritage-listed Devines Hill loop. 28km loop.
Fishing On The Hawkesbury
Threw a line in on the Hawkesbury River, no luck but enjoyed the scenic views
