The iconic Camden Valley Inn is weeks away from being reborn, with the much-loved watering hole promising to arguably be the region’s premier venue.

After a 10-month hiatus and multimillion-dollar facelift, the taps of the heritage-listed landmark are expected to flow once more early this month.

The heritage and natural feel of the venue has been retained.

Featuring a gigantic beer garden, pizzeria, cafe and multiple bars, Camden Valley Inn general manager Kayla Kyling said she hoped the new look would attract visitors from all corners of Sydney.

“We are so excited to announce the reopening of the Camden Valley Inn,” she said.

“We’ve been watching the transformation from start to finish, and while there are several new modernised elements to the venue, we have no doubt it still has its rich, historic and community feel.”

The venue will be open for family fun this spring.

The children’s playgrounds are sure to be a hit.

Ms Kyling said despite the dramatic makeover, the venue — built as a milk bar in 1939 — still had the same community feel and old-school country charm.

“The new and improved Camden Valley Inn will be a one-stop shop for entertainment,” she said.

“Its revamped amenities still has its rich history intact which will be reminiscent of the original Camden Vale milk bar, but with a new modern flair.”

The venue’s 50-year-old trees were retained as part of the restoration.

The community vibe of the venue will remain, with 50-year-old trees retained and a number of private and semi-private function spaces on offer.

Owners Lewis Land Group said the inn will boost the area’s local economy.

“The recruitment process for new staff is under way and we’re hoping to employ locals to boost the regional Camden economy,” head of leisure Brad Jenkins said.

The venue will able to host a range of functions, including weddings.

“The jobs on offer include kitchen roles, duty management, function staff, food and beverage attendants and marketing and event management.”

The venue will also host weddings, corporate conferences, fundraisers, ceremonies and other special events.
