Because some weekends deserve more than a rushed getaway.

Canberra, make the most of the ACT long weekend at Willinga Park.

From Friday 29 May to Monday 1 June, when you book a three-night stay, your third night is included with our compliments.

Inside the gates, wake slowly, wander sculpture trails, take in the gardens, breathe in the coastal air and give yourself time to properly reset.

Outside the gates, the Shoalhaven is waiting with beaches, villages, coastal walks, local dining and the kind of South Coast moments that turn a weekend away into something more.

Book your long weekend escape now.

In December, we welcomed the final Warmblood foal from Terry Snow’s breeding program, fittingly named Willinga Sir Terrence.

By Sky Diamond x Bloomfield Forever, Willinga Sir Terence carries exceptional bloodlines and, five months into life at Willinga Park, is already making a strong impression. With big movement, striking presence and a confident temperament, he is a fitting final chapter in a very special breeding legacy.
