One Main Street, Wide Views and Weather That Rolls In Fast
Burrawang perches on a rise east of Moss Vale, halfway to Robertson along the Illawarra Highway, with the Wingecarribee Reservoir spread out below it. The village is tiny: a pub, a general store, a church, a scattering of timber cottages and a few newer houses, all wrapped in mist for a good part of winter. Around it are dairy and cattle farms, some potato paddocks nearer Robertson, and lifestyle properties whose owners came for the view.
Because it is so small, Burrawang has a strong village feel and a mix of permanent residents and weekend owners. Some run businesses from home, some are retired, some commute to Sydney a few days a week and work from the cottage on the others. Their internet connections and devices have to cope with damp, cold and the occasional long power outage.
Keeping a Cold, Damp Cottage Connected
The village streets have fixed-line NBN, while properties out along the surrounding roads are more likely to be on fixed wireless or satellite. Storms coming over the escarpment from the coast knock the power out from time to time, and modems that do not restart cleanly afterwards are a common call. Damp is the other enemy: laptops left in unheated rooms over winter, printers that jam because the paper has absorbed moisture, and older hard drives failing in the cold.
Weekend owners have particular needs. They want the house to be ready when they arrive, the cameras to show them the place is fine midweek, and nobody to have to drive up from Sydney because the router has locked up.
The Pub, the Store and the Farms Around Them
Burrawang’s economy fits on one street plus the paddocks around it. The village pub and general store draw visitors from across the Highlands on weekends, and they depend on card terminals, bookings and a connection that stays up when the dining room is full. Beyond the village, dairy and beef farms, a few horticulture operations and some agricultural contractors keep records, order supplies and report to processors online. Several residents also run consultancies or creative businesses from home.
We help these operators keep payments and bookings reliable, set up the farm office properly, and protect the accounts that money moves through. For hospitality businesses with a growing online presence, our social media marketing team can also take the weekend posting off your plate.
Where Burrawang Sits and How We Get There
The village is about ten minutes from Moss Vale and a similar distance to Robertson, with the Illawarra Highway the main way in. Wildes Meadow and the reservoir lie to the south, Kangaloon and the water-catchment country to the north, and Fitzroy Falls a short drive south-west. Farm driveways off Church Street and the surrounding roads can be long, and the weather can turn from clear to fog within an hour.
We service Burrawang as part of our regular Highlands runs. Software, email and account problems are normally handled remotely, and hardware and network work is done on site. Where a visit is needed we aim for same-day or next-business-day when we can. Businesses that would rather not manage any of this themselves can look at our support options.
Other places we look after in the 2577 postcode include Avoca 2577, Barren Grounds 2577, Barrengarry 2577, Beaumont 2577 and Belanglo 2577. See every suburb in Southern-Highlands, or our IT Support Canberra page for the whole district.
