About this property
The Wonky House
Bowraville is an historic town on the mid north coast of NSW that links Valla - Nambucca - Macksville and Scotts Head together. A 90-year-old house with plenty of Wonky charm from years of manifestation into today's character. Comfortable contemporary interior with a great view North to our mountain from the back deck.
Excellent base camp to access the four arms of the Nambucca Valley - Pub with No Beer-Surfing - Fishing- Hiking - Biking or chilling. This region is the last best kept secret on the east coast so come and take a look while it is still its beautiful authentic self.
