Follow the instructions and you cannot go wrong.
Firstly pick your route to get to Wiseman's Ferry
either via Dural or via Windsor or Pitt Town. From the
city or North Shore, consider Epping Road and then on to the M2. Then
take the Pennant Hills Road exit turning right. Take a left into
Castle Hill Road and a right into New Line Road and carry on to Old Northern
Road and Dural. It is then a direct run of 38 kms to Wiseman's Ferry.
Cross the Hawkesbury River on the "Webb Creek" car ferry, drive off
and head up St Albans Road and exactly 22 kms later you will arrive at the
St Albans village. You can enter the village by turning right over the Macdonald
River bridge. To get to Bandusia Retreat, DO NOT
turn right at the bridge but carry on up the "Branch Road"
signposted as Upper Macdonald Road and 10.5 kms
you are at our doorstep.
The scenery is positively captivating as you pass through
on of Australia's oldest farming valleys.
Remember to watch your trip meter. En route from the
bridge at St Albans and 7.3 kms on, you
will cross a concrete bridge and hit a T-junction where you must turn left!
Carry on past the pecan farm and we will see you at the Retreat
on your right after the last 3 kms. Elapsed
driving time from the centre of Sydney is usually 2 to 2.5 hours on a Friday
afternoon.
WARNING:
Stay left at all times on St Albans Roads. The roads are
sometimes narrow and poorly sign posted. Please STAY LEFT and avoid oncoming
traffic.
