Nestled on 50 acres of pristine farmland and native bushland along the banks of the magnificent Shoalhaven River, Grants is an exceptional private estate offering luxurious accommodation, space and tranquillity for unforgettable group escapes. Designed for families, retreats, special gatherings, as well as small corporate getaways, the property features nine beautifully appointed bedrooms and comfortably sleeps up to 28 guests. Inside, the home combines modern comfort with a fine rustic charm. Guests can gather in spacious living areas featuring fireplaces, a fully equipped chef’s kitchen designed for entertaining, a multimedia room, and a recreational lounge complete with a pool table and bar, perfect for evening entertainment. Downstairs, a bunkroom with an ensuite bathroom and kitchenette is also available for larger groups. All rooms are fully air conditioned, for personal temperature comfort.

With absolute river frontage and exclusive access to a private beach for water skiing, a jetty, and a boat ramp, guests can step directly from the estate onto the river to enjoy boating, swimming, kayaking, or simply taking in the peaceful natural surroundings. Expansive lawns and sweeping river views create a sense of seclusion and serenity rarely found so close to the coast. The estate offers a wealth of premium amenities, including a resort-style swimming pool, heated outdoor spa, tennis court, gym, and multiple outdoor entertainment and barbecue areas. A large undercover alfresco space provides a perfect setting for long outdoor lunches and relaxed evenings overlooking the river.

This beautifully unique estate is located just 10 minutes west of Nowra and approximately two hours south of Sydney. Grants offers the perfect balance of accessibility and privacy, a rare riverside sanctuary where guests can reconnect, celebrate and experience the natural beauty of the Shoalhaven region. Take a short drive or boat ride from Grants, and you’re sure to find adventure and culture. If you’ve brought your boat, just 20 minutes away is The Heads Hotel, for great food and cocktails! Explore the Shoalhaven Zoo or tackle the Treetops Adventure Park with the kids. Enjoy a scenic walk along the river or take in local culture at the Bundanon Art Museum. For the grown-ups, visit an artisanal style brewery/distillery and wood-fired grill at Old Salt Distillery, or sample local wines at Two Figs Winery – both a relaxing outing. Thrill-seekers will love rock climbing at Thompsons Point, the best rock face in the region or for the less adventurous, a visit to the Fleet Air Arm Museum or perhaps a round of golf at the Worrigee Links Golf Course may be your vibe.

Grants accepts no responsibility for any damage or injury to any persons or equipment whilst using the riverside facilities provided.

The use of riverside facilities varies depending on the weather and tide levels. Note: if floating ski boats on trailers, a minimum of mid-tide is required.

If tides do not allow safe retrieval of boats, there is a public boat ramp on the north side of Nowra Bridge.

No boats or watercraft are to be tied and left unattended to the pontoon at any time.

The cost to repair any damage to the pontoon will be treated as a guest expense.

The firepit is not available for use during the summer months due to the potential for bushfire, and during cooler months, firewood is to be supplied by the guest.

The combustion fireplaces are not to be used outside of 1 April to 1 October; firewood will be supplied during these months only.

This property has external security cameras located at the front covering the entrance, driveway, carpark, across the yard towards the jetty, and at the back near the plant room, covering the rear lawn and on the locked sheds away from the main house.

Pets are NOT permitted at this property.

WiFi is offered as a complimentary extra. The WiFi signal is not always reliable due to the property being in a rural area and can be affected by weather conditions. As there is no charge, issues will be dealt with Asap but cannot be guaranteed.

Enough wood will be supplied for the fireplace/slow combustion wood heater for the first two nights. After that, guests must purchase top-up wood and kindling from the local petrol stations at their own cost.

To ensure the comfort of our guests and the neighbours, we do NOT accept bookings for “Schoolies” breaks/groups and under no circumstances do we allow weddings or parties of any sort.

Code of conduct: Payment for the booking warrants you and all guests staying will abide by the Code of Conduct for Short Term Rental Accommodation which can be viewed under the Guest Information tab on our website or a link which will be sent to you in your booking confirmation email.

Noise at Properties: NSW Planning has passed laws that affect guests. The Code of Conduct for holiday renting can be found on our website under the Guest Information tab. In Section 2.5.2 of the STR Code of Conduct, guests have an obligation to ensure the peace and comfort of neighbours and other occupants of the premises (if strata) near holiday rental properties. This means guests have to be very mindful of noise made in or outside the property that can disrupt neighbours at any time of the day.

Noise audible outside the property is prohibited.

Important Notes
Privacy: This property is a holiday rental; it is not a principal place of residence and there are no shared rooms. Enjoy your time in comfort and privacy.

Terms and Conditions: Detailed T&Cs apply for this property, and payment warrants your agreement and that of all other guests staying at the property with you. Please share the T&Cs with your other guests.

Check-in and -out Times: During the busy months of December and January, the check-in time is 4 pm to facilitate peak back-to-back changeovers. Our standard check-in time is 3 pm and check-out time is 10 am. We offer a complimentary early check-in or late check-out time as a gesture of goodwill where booking and housekeeping schedules allow. Note that due to demand and housekeeping pressures, no early check-ins or late check-outs will be granted during the months of December and January. The safest way to secure an early check-in or later check-out is to book the property for an extra night. Contact us for a special rate for this extra night. All Sunday late check outs must be requested and approved prior to 5 pm on the Friday evening prior. All complimentary early check-ins or late check-outs must be confirmed in writing so that our housekeeping team are informed accordingly.

Additional Guests: The guest limits apply at all times during the booking. Any extra guests (this includes day visitors) above those that have been booked and paid for must be approved in writing prior to the stay. Only the guests staying at the property are permitted to be present. If you wish to have visitors in addition to booked guests, you must advise us in writing prior to your stay and ensure you receive written permission. This is not possible at all properties.

No Extras: This property is approved for accommodation only. No mattresses, tents, caravans or more cars than the property accommodates are allowed. Under no circumstances are the following activities permitted at any of our properties: motorbikes, dirt bikes, quad bikes, use of firearms or air rifles, fireworks.

EV Charging: For safety reasons and to comply with insurance requirements, guests are prohibited from charging electric vehicles at any property that does not have a dedicated EV charging station. Charging electric vehicles without proper infrastructure poses a fire hazard, and in the unfortunate event of an incident, insurance cover may be compromised, and the guest held liable. If in doubt, ask our team for the closest EV charging station.

Long Stay Discounts: Some of our properties are well suited to longer stays. For bookings of 30 nights or more, we may be able to offer a reduced rate compared to what’s advertised. Please feel free to get in touch with our team with your preferred dates, and we’ll be happy to look at the best available rate for you.

For medium-term bookings (21-40 nights) and long-term bookings (41-90 nights), a non-negotiable cash security deposit is required. This deposit is refunded after the departure inspection, with any damage or loss deducted. The minimum cash deposit is $2000, with higher amounts for larger or more expensive properties, or at the owner’s/manager’s discretion.
