Burrawang is a picturesque and secluded country village which is worthwhile visiting just to get away from the city
Take a peek between the hedgerows, look out from the top of Region Street - or more comfortably, from the terrace at the Burrawang Village Hotel, and the view of the magnificent countryside will be enough reward for your visit.
The Old Village Store in the main street is a must to see. Built in 1867 its amazingly preserved interior was a delightful reminder of slower times long past. Sadly, it recently closed after trading for over a century - a victim finally of the motor car and supermarket age.
There is a cafe in the main street (open Thursday to Monday) where you can eat on the veranda, or inside by a log fire.
One of Burrawang's most popular attractions - the sandstone 19th century schoolhouse - has been magnificently restored. In the past this building was one of Burrawang's most famous attractions.
Burrawang has some first class bed and breakfasts and self-contained accommodation which will allow you to escape from the aggravations of everyday life, and immerse yourself in the total relaxation of country living.
