About Willersley House

With its large wraparound garden and striking Georgian facade, Willersley is often thought to be the most beautiful and certainly the most homely boarding house in the community. Providing a home to 34 girls from Years 7 to 12, it is also the most family-oriented house of the four.

The period charm of the house, with a large number of nooks and crannies as well as a distinct and cosy lounge, make this boarding house a staff favourite. It also boasts the College’s oldest working lavatory. The kitchen is fully equipped, Wifi is available throughout, there is a small library and arts and crafts area as well as a large collection of board games. In short, Willersley has everything and more for a wonderful boarding experience.
