The Historic Como Hotel
Built in 1878 and almost destroyed by fire nearly 100 years later, this historic site has been restored to it's former sandstone glory.
A favourite watering hole of the famous Australian poet Henry Lawson who lived at Como in the 1900's, local legend has it that Lawson "used to row a boat from his house to the hotel and sell or recite his poems for beer".
The hotel is still a shire favourite for a lazy afternoon lunch and to savour the spectacular view overlooking parkland, Scylla Bay and the beautiful Georges River. |
