PRIVACY is assured: your hosts have their own living quarters, lounge area, their own entry and separate car parking.
QUIET SITUATION, YET CLOSE TO TOWN: If you generally have trouble sleeping when you are on holidays because of traffic and crowds, enjoy a quiet night’s sleep where the calling of the birds or the lowing of the cattle will lull you to sleep and gently greet you in the morning.

Enjoy the views from furnished decks overlooking the spectacular Jamberoo Valley and Southern Highlands escarpment, while listening to the myriad of bird life and lowing of the cattle, or view the stars in the night sky (without street lights to dim their sparkle).

View Larger Map
From Sydney, follow the Princes Highway (Highway 1) and F6 Freeway to the south, then follow the “Wollongong” and subsequently “Nowra” road signs. Kiama is half-way between Wollongong and Nowra. Take the left-hand off ramp into Kiama from the Kiama by-pass into Kiama main street. Turn right at the big roundabout at Terralong Street and drive along this street until you go under the underpass and Terralong Street becomes Jamberoo Road. From this point, drive straight on for another 1-2 km until you reach the very top of the hill, slow down and take a VERY SHARP TURN RIGHT into Riversdale Road. Kiama B&B is the second property in the Street (look for the Kiama B&B shingle).
