We’re thrilled to be named a finalist in the Business Event Venues category of the 2026 NSW Tourism Awards. 🏆

At Willinga Park, we bring together exceptional architecture, art, nature and hospitality in a private setting at Bawley Point.

We offer space to step away from the everyday, think more clearly and build stronger connections. Our gardens, sculpture walks and onsite accommodation extend that experience beyond the conference room.

This recognition is a proud moment for all of us and reflects the care and commitment we bring to every event.

Thank you to our clients and partners for choosing Willinga Park for your conferences, retreats and business events.

Winners will be announced on Monday 9 November at ICC Sydney.

This World Tourism Day, we’re celebrating the journeys that bring people to Willinga Park and everything they discover once they’re here.

A celebration, time with family or a few days away might be the reason for travelling. At Willinga Park, the experience begins with the landscape in view from your Pavilion and continues through gardens where art becomes part of the walk. One sculpture moves with the wind, another reaches across the water and each invites you to see the grounds from a different perspective.

There is more to discover beyond Willinga Park. Bawley Point’s beaches, the walks of Meroo and Murramarang National Parks and the food and coastal villages of the Shoalhaven give every journey room to grow.

That is what we celebrate today. The chance to welcome people to Willinga Park, share what makes this place distinctive and open the door to more of the South Coast.

Willinga Park. The South Coast’s Most Remarkable Destination.
