Jules Lewin (Julie Lewin)

As the result of a crushing injury to my leg several years ago I have a permanent disability and walk with the help of crutches. Knowing how difficult it can be to find accessible, inclusive holiday accommodation, Maggie and I decided to create something ourselves. I therefore resigned from a tenured position as a lecturer in medical science (pathophysiology and pharmacology) in Sydney and we headed for the warmth and beauty of the evergreen Tweed Valley.

As a Registered Nurse (RN0482351) and having been Chairperson of the University's Occupational Health and Safety Committee for several years, I am committed to ensuring the highest standards of hygiene and safety in dealing with all aspects of the Guesthouse.

I have been honoured with Awards for Excellence in both tertiary education and nursing, and although I take my responsibilities seriously there is nothing better than a good old belly laugh… and great tucker.

So, welcome to the Uki Guesthouse. It’s casual, comfy and relaxed.

Cheers, Jules

My background is in education, having spent many years as a teacher, school principal, founding director of a music school and a school and community music educator. I play several musical instruments and have published a number of original compositions.

Although I’ve lived and worked in cities for most of my adult life, I was actually raised in a small country village, so I’m delighted to be now living in this stunningly beautiful part of the world.

I hope you will enjoy your visit to the area and look forward to having you stay with us.
