The perfect place to relax


Visit the Shoalhaven


Welcome to our place.

This beautiful old house was formerly a navy residence at HMAS Creswell on Jervis Bay.
Now it backs onto its own boat harbour on nearby St George’s Basin.




You can rent it for weekends and holidays by contacting Ross Neilson at
rossmail@bigpond.net.au or phoning: 02 9519 2500 or 0412 860 085.

Jervis Bay is known as the 'Jewel of the South Coast' for reasons that are immediately apparent on this website: www.southcoast.com.au/jervisbay/ The house is on the neighbouring Basin, a ten minute drive from the Bay.
