Butterwick
From Newcastle/Sydney: The simplest approach is to take the A1 to Raymond Terrace, turning left at the large roundabout at Heatherbrae. Follow the Old Pacific Highway (Adelaide Street) through the town, turning left into William Bailey Street at the McDonalds traffic lights. Proceed straight ahead through the roundabout (becomes Seaham Road) and onto the bridge. From the river, it is approx. 7.2 km before turning left into Brandy Hill Drive. Follow this to the end (stop sign) and turn left again, then after 4.3 km turn right into Butterwick Road. After 2.4 km, turn right into Green Wattle Creek Road. Follow this road (mostly unsealed) for 1.2 km. (Your GPS unit may offer a variety of alternative ways to get there, depending on your origin.)
From Maitland: Leave Maitland through Lorn and Bolwarra, following Paterson Road through Bolwarra Heights and on to Woodville (becomes Clarence Town Road). Continue straight ahead for 3.1 km after the Woodville Store and turn left into Butterwick Road. After 2.4 km, turn right into Green Wattle Creek Road. Follow this road (mostly unsealed) for 1.2 km.
From East Maitland: Alternatively, you can travel through Morpeth, over the bridge and turn right, then over the Hinton bridge and turn left, then drive through Wallalong up to the stop sign on Clarence Town Road. Turn left and proceed for 700 m, then right into Butterwick Road. After 2.4 km, turn right into Green Wattle Creek Road. Follow this road (mostly unsealed) for 1.2 km.
