Central Tilba rests on a gentle slope, its colourful corrugated iron roofs a cheerful scattering against the deep green of the surrounding hills. It lies 176.3 km south of Goulburn, NSW (from Goulburn, NSW: bearing 170°T), and is situated 7.0 km south-south-east of Narooma. The air here carries the faint, sweet scent of damp earth and eucalypt, a constant whisper from the nearby forests that spill down towards the coast. The landscape is a soft patchwork of grazing paddocks and darker swathes of bushland, the terrain undulating rather than rugged, lending a sense of quiet repose. Sunlight, when it breaks through the often-overcast sky, has a milky luminescence, softening the edges of the old buildings and casting long, sleepy shadows.
This is a place where the past feels remarkably close, its history etched not in grand monuments but in the enduring spirit of its inhabitants and the very bones of its structures. Central Tilba’s lifeblood once flowed from the surrounding dairy farms, their rich pastures a legacy of diligent cultivation. The distinctive ABC cheese factory, a landmark of local ingenuity, still stands as a reminder of that era, though today the village thrives on a different kind of sustenance – the steady stream of travellers drawn by its unique charm. The iconic Tilba Tilba Lake, a tranquil expanse of water, lies a short distance away, reflecting the sky and offering a quiet counterpoint to the village's gentle bustle.
