No. There are no plans for a large hotel or residential (private sale)development.
Plans are being prepared that will include boutique hotel accommodation (approximately 60 rooms) the majority of which will be located at the rear of the gaol outside the gaol walls. This will allow for the maximising of the internal spaces of the gaol to be used as spaces for the community to enjoy. The hotel will also help to meet local demand for high-quality accommodation and help boost the local economy.
Designed by award-winning architectural firm Turner, the architecture will be sympathetic to the local heritage context and complementary to the landscape both in materiality palette and scale. Following the natural contours of the land, the rooms will range from 2-3 storeys and will respect the prominence of the existing gaol walls, maintaining key historical views around Berrima.
