It lies 35.2 km south-west of Wollongong, NSW (from Wollongong, NSW: bearing 231°T), and is situated 14.0 km west-south-west of Tullimbar. Rolling green pastures, stitched with the grey of weathered fences, spread outwards, cradling the village like a cupped hand. The air here carries the scent of rich, dark soil, a constant reminder of the earth's generosity, and the distant bleating of sheep drifts on the breeze. The sky, often a vast, pale blue, can quickly gather the bruised purples of an impending Southern Highlands shower, a dramatic shift that paints the hills in fleeting, watery light.
This is a place shaped by the pastoral dreams of its early settlers, a landscape that has long sustained dairy herds and the hearty pursuit of agriculture. The legacy of those times is etched into the very character of Robertson, a quiet determination that seems to permeate the local economy, still largely anchored in farming and grazing. Visitors often find themselves drawn to the region's renowned dairy produce, a tangible taste of the land's enduring bounty. Beyond the farms, a subtle vein of tourism threads through Robertson, catering to those seeking a respite from city clamour, drawn by the crisp air and the unpretentious beauty of the Southern Highlands.
