Our Home of Marulan, NSW
Marulan, with its rustic charm and picturesque landscapes, truly encapsulates the essence of a beautiful country town nestled in the heart of the Southern Highlands of NSW, roughly half way between Sydney and Canberra.
Visitors to Marulan are spoilt for choice with so many great things to do.
You can wander the streets on a self-guided tour and read up about our historic sites, grab yourself a locally made treasure at one of the gift stores, or put your feet up at The Lazy George Cafe for a well-deserved bite to eat.
Neighbouring Communities
Marulan and its surrounding communities are steeped in history, with traces of the past woven into every corner of the region.
After a morning tea stop at The Lazy George Cafe, why not take a short drive south to Goulburn or the Big Merino.
Goulburn, known for its charm and vibrant community, provides a range of attractions including historic buildings, museums, and local markets, while the Big Merino, a beloved Australian landmark, stands tall as a symbol of the region's rich agricultural heritage. Visitors can enjoy taking photos, shopping for local products, and learning about the significance of wool production to the area.
Berrima, another fantastic stop on your way north towards Sydney, is located on the Old Hume Highway. This once bustling hub is home to some of the most stunning Georgian buildings. It’s also home to the Berrima Courthouse. Built in 1838 in the Greek Revival style, the courthouse has a varied history of uses which includes a meeting place for community dances, concerts and church services, as well as a housing facility for German officers who were made prisoners of war during the first world war!
Nature
For those who are after a little “back to nature” time, then the Southern Highlands has so much to offer! We have Carrington Falls, Lake Alexandra Reserve, Glow Worm Glen, Victoria Arch Walking Track and Corbett Gardens which is absolutely stunning in spring!
No matter your reason for traveling through our town be it for work, a place to stretch your legs or somewhere to rest your head, Marulan and the surrounding area has something for everyone. The best part is that you have us, the friendly team at The Lazy George Cafe :)
