It would appear that you were not happy about the area, especially Nowra which is a typical regional centre, the main attraction of the Shoalhaven is the natural beauty of the area, Jervis Bay, Booderee National Park, Kangaroo Valley, Berry to name...

Stayed here one night due to a function in Bomaderry. Though on the highway the room was very quiet. Large room with extra large bathroom. Comfortable bed and flat screen TV. Standard stuff but well presented and clean. Nice friendly owners. Would recommend if passing through. More

I presented it to the owner, who said they try to stay on top of them with sprays, etc., but that "they fly in Australia" - as if... More

Rooms are beautiful, tastefully decorated and modern. Bathroom was absolutely impeccable, could not have been any cleaner. Room smelt nice, as soon as we walked in. Staff were very firendly.

Stayed here when attending a conference in Nowra. Large rooms very clean and newly refurbished. Service was excellent and staff were very pleasant, so "tassiem" must have struck them on a bad day. Tried the restraunt. it was excellent and well priced. Would definitely stay there again. More

Issue # 1 - Mice in the room. The first night we were woken by mice eating... More
