Our Story

A Piece of Kiama, Preserved

Built circa 1850, Hindmarsh Park Holiday Cottage is one of Kiama's most treasured historic buildings. Lovingly restored and thoughtfully reimagined for modern comfort, it blends the warmth of sandstock brick fireplaces and wrap-around verandahs with the ease of a fully equipped contemporary kitchen, ducted climate control, and high-speed WiFi.

"A rare thing — genuine heritage, genuine comfort, in the heart of everything Kiama has to offer."

Fronting Hindmarsh Park and directly opposite Kiama's beloved coffee strip, the cottage puts you within a short stroll of the famous Blowhole, harbour rock pools, boutique dining, and weekend farmers markets. It's not just a place to stay — it's a place to feel like a local.
