Overview
A local landmark and a wonderful example of Georgian Colonial architecture, Terragong House is included on the Register of National Estate with the Australian Heritage Commission as well as on the Register of the National Trust of Australia. The mature trees, including Magnolia Grandiflora Morton Bay Figs and Norfolk and Bunya Pines, are also of heritage interest and provide an idyllic setting for the home. Built in 1858 by the Hon. Sir John Marks, the property remained in the Marks family for seven generations. Upon purchasing Terragong in late 2014 your hosts Darryl and Simon commenced 18 months of sympathetic renovations including construction of a new kitchen and family room annex as well as the addition of en suite facilities for our three luxuriously appointed guest rooms located in the single-storey weatherboard wing dating from the late 1800s.
Accommodation includes a two-course breakfast daily and one hour of complimentary wine and nibbles each afternoon, served in the Library. Recipient of a 2017 Trip Advisor Certificate of Excellence and included in the 2016 Sydney Morning Herald Good Weekend ’52 Weekends Away’.

I am one lucky mum that was given a weekend away at Terragong 1858 as a Birthday gift from my Son…The moment I drove through the white entrance gates into this beautiful old home I knew I was in for the treat of my life. This amazing home has been beautifully renovated with tender love & care….outside there were chooks & the beautiful trees & gardens all planted & maintained by Darryl.
The welcome was so friendly I instantly felt at home with the Hosts, Simon, Darryl & ‘Daisy’.
My room was lovely with fabulous views looking out onto the pool & gardens…the huge 4 poster bed I just sank into, the best nights sleep ever, and the heated floor to my ensuite just made it perfect.
Each morning I found placed under my door a personalised menu outlining my gorgeous homemade breakfast of the day lovingly cooked by Simon…the attention to detail was incredible.
Also noteworthy was the complimentary selection of wines & nibbles available throughout my stay.
This little Gem hidden away in Jamberoo was well worth my trip down south ….I loved every minute of it & can’t wait to go back .
