Worrowing
is one of the few existing rural properties in the Jervis Bay area and
was part of
a land grant of 2550 acres in 1830. The Georgian style homestead was
modelled on Old Erowal House, built in 1840, but burned down in the
1960's, and has now been rebuilt to its former glory. Over the years
Worrowing has been worked as a poll Hereford stud and today maintains
its rural atmosphere with cattle, horses, and the encouragement of the
abundant wildlife of Jervis Bay onto the property. Each day the property
is frequented by large mobs of kangaroos and wallabies many have become
permanent residents. Worrowing plays host to a regular
winter arts festival
taking place in
late May to June
long weekend. view
