Fernmark is unique in the Bega Valley. The idea for the guesthouse has been in the hosts dreams and thoughts since 1997, as they sat in a guesthouse overlooking the sea on the island of Lamu, Kenya.

As Hallie & Corinne both love travelling, they designed the Fernmark Inn with 5 exotically modelled theme rooms from different regions in the world they experienced together.

Because privacy is important to them, and knew it would be to their guests, each deluxe room is soundproofed, has its own ensuite and a private terrace.

*The Middle Eastern room with its beautiful domed ceiling and curved edges represents the domed palatial rooms in the Sinai desert on the edge of the Red Sea. QSB This room is child and dog friendly.

* The Thai room is designed in bamboo and hessian and includes Thai silk wall hangings. The feel is that of a regal bamboo bungalow. QSB

* The India room is patterned after a Maharaja's guest room decorated with Indian silk sari material, Indian tiles and artefacts. QSB

* The Africa room is modelled on the feel of a majestic mud hut. Furniture is designed with old fence posts. KSB

"Done with style and panache! More service than a 5 star hotel!"
"The room was a delight, relaxing, romantic and peaceful. A beautiful spot and refreshingly different!"
"Oh, the elegance, the generous, thoughtful hospitality, the physical beauty of the environs and the healing hands."
"Your love and care exudes from the very walls of the place"

Sapphire Coast

The region has the most beautiful secluded beaches as well as mountainous bush rich in both Aboriginal history and that of the early settlers.

We are 5 minutes from the Wadbilliga National Forest Park including the Brogo Dam where canoeing is available. Enjoy it all while touring the area. An easy 5 hours from Sydney and 7 hours from Melbourne.

Our 90 acres, 70 of which is bush, has walking trails throughout it. We have our own rainforest area as well as 2 acres of grape vines! Almost half of our land is part of a Voluntary Conservation Area.
