The Southern Highlands is one of the most popular and beautiful tourist destinations in New South Wales. The unspoilt beauty, picturesque bushland, rolling hills, rugged mountains and waterfalls, makes a visit to the area a must. For the Wood family this area is very important to us being where William Wood was given a land grant from the Government to farm and settle permanently.
