I have stayed in South West Rocks almost every year for the last 25 years but have never stayed in the Guesthouse...I can't believe I have waited this long! It is such a beautiful building, inside and out. My sister and I stayed in room 3 which has 2 twin beds and an ensuite. The bedroom has that quaint old... More

My wife and I stayed at the Heritage due to its proximity to the SWR Surf Club. We were attending a function there and were after suitable accommodation within walking distance. We had the choice of cabins in the nearby Caravan Park plus staying in a hotel also in close approximity but chose the Heritage Guest House. What a great... More

Was able to stay here only one brief night, with not much time to adequately enjoy the guest house. But it gets high marks for character, charm, cleanliness, roominess... I stayed in a room on the ground floor, not far from the kitchen. The room was large - with high ceilings - very comfortable with nice furniture. It would be... More

We stayed at The Heritage Guest House as a half way mark between Sydney and Byron Bay. Our stay was so comfortable on the way up that we booked for the way back as well. This is a lovely guesthouse in a very central location in South West Rocks. The reason that I felt the need to write a review... More

A short but sweet stay. Very friendly and attentive staff. Booked 2 rooms, which both had lovely furnishings, which complemented the style and age of the guest house. Beautiful communal garden, and front terrace. Added bonus of a kitchen, which was super, as we were on a road trip and meant we could re-freeze our ice packs before the next... More

We booked out the Heritage for our wedding in Feb 2011, so we could enjoy spending time with our guests. The staff are friendly, the rooms are just gorgeous, and everyone commented on how much they enjoyed staying there. Across the road from the beach, a beautiful cafe downstairs, or take advantage of the kitchen. Really quiet, we couldn't hear... More
