Robbie Burns, born in 1756 in Scotland, was a man who knew his words could light and lift the hearts of men. Almost 100 years had passed since then, when in 1849 Robert Turbert was found guilty of theft on the streets of Edinburgh, and shipped across oceans to a land that sang with a different tongue. Mary Peacock, 14 years old and an orphan of the potato famine in Ireland, was shipped out with other orphans to Australia in 1850. Robert and Mary met and married in 1852 and together built the Robbie Burns Hotel in Wyndham, NSW. They had 13 children and the hotel remained in the family until 1959.

 

Katie heard about the RBH in Wyndham 2 years before finding herself in the far south Coast of NSW in its seductive beauty! The building had been neglected and it touched a place in her to give it the care to dare to resurrect it. Now it is a place to relax settle stay awhile, receive the natural quiet majestic gift of nature all around in its divine diversity.

Set in the pristine landscape of the mountains and the beautiful Sapphire Coast, you will find yourself welcomed in the exotic interior interwoven with irresistible art objects, treasures and comfortable lounging spaces.

Wyndham is a small but diverse community with agriculture, artists, sustainable living, wholistic practitioners, musicians, hermits and cottage industries.
