Escape to Jugiong this summer: The Perfect Countryside Getaway
It's time to swap the city streets for country roads, fresh air and long afternoons in the pub garden.
If you're looking for a weekend away in the countryside, put Jugiong on your list. Just off the Hume Highway, it's an easy road trip from Canberra, around three and a half hours from Sydney, or a longer country drive from Melbourne.
We have beautiful gardens for you to take a wander and stretch your legs, lawn games and kids play area to keep the little ones entertained and a menu packed with seasonal dishes made with regional NSW ingredients. Plus, if you’re the passenger princess, we invite you to try some beautiful regional drops from our wine list.
And while it makes a great place to stop on the way through, it's worth staying a few nights and enjoying Jugiong a little longer.
Discover Jugiong
Start with a wander around the village. Browse the local shops, pick up some local produce and goodies to take home, and stop at Waterworks Lookout for views over the Murrumbidgee River and surrounding countryside.
As one Google reviewer put it, “What a great little Aussie town! Jugiong is a delight.” We couldn't agree more.
After a day exploring, settle in at The Sir George. Choose from our Black Barns or Heritage Stables, unpack your bags and make a weekend of it.
There's good food to look forward to, a courtyard made for long summer lunches and cold drinks in the sunshine. Pull up a chair, order a few plates to share and enjoy not having anywhere else to be.
We're also a favourite stop for travellers heading between Sydney and Melbourne. One Google reviewer described us as “easily the best stopover on the trip between Sydney and Melbourne”, and we'd love to give you a reason to stay the night rather than just passing through.
Travelling with your dog? We have a dog menu and pet-friendly accommodation options, so your four-legged companion can come along for the trip, too.
