WE ARE TEMPORARILY CLOSED

We have been required to close our doors temporarily, due to the need to undertake roadworks following recent heavy rain. Safety is our top priority, and while unfortunate, our position is aligned with Transport for NSW's decision to close the Two-Mile Road, the only access to Jenolan. We thank you for your patience, and we hope to reopen soon, in December. Please watch this website and Facebook page for our reopening announcement.
