A relaxing family getaway. The location was fantastic . It is close to Bowral shops, golf course and restaurants. The house was clean and the yard was great for the grandchildren.

Hi Jill, glad you and your family could enjoy the place as your home away from home and that could enjoy the garden and being close to town. You’re most welcome back any time!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here for our daughter’s wedding. The property had everything we needed for the bride and bridesmaids to get ready, and the garden was a beautiful backdrop for photos.All beds very comfortable. Would stay here again.
Enjoyed this lovely property immensely. Good, accurate description in listing.

Hi Elizabeth,

The house was perfect, in every sense. I had this house for my wedding and Kathleen was an incredible host and went above and beyond to make sure we felt at home. Cannot recommend it enough!

Hi Marcela,
Thanks so much for letting us know. We're so glad you enjoyed your stay and had a beautiful wedding. You are welcome back anytime! All the best :)
We had an excellent stay at this great property - communication with the Property Manager was great and responsive and ever helpful. The house was used for a Wedding Preparatory place for the Groom and had lots of space for the Groomsmen and was a stones throw from the Bowral shops which was hugely convenient. We really recommend a look at this property as the gardens were also great for Wedding Photos for the big day.

Thanks Dennis for your kind review. We are so glad you had a good stay especially for this special occasion. You are welcome back anytime. Thanks again
A most beautiful country home, wonderfully peaceful and restful.
We welcomed the daily visits from the magpies and their welcoming song.
We were with our visiting family from Scotland, who all agreed: a perfect Easter weekend!
Thank you.
We had a lovely time celebrating my parents 50th Wedding Anniversary. Kathleen was extremely helpful in her communication and organising some flowers in advance. The location and property were stunning! Could not have asked for a better weekend!
Beautiful and very spacious house with everything we needed. The location is perfect and the communication from the host was fantastic. This would be my absolute first preference when staying in this area.
The owners are so easy to communicate with and the instructions they left out were very easy to follow. The location of the house was also only 5mins away from the CBD and the house itself was stunning and perfect. We used this place as a "wedding getting ready home", but my whole family can't wait to come back soon just to holiday.
We had high expectations of Bowral Escape and the property exceeded all of them. The house and grounds are beautiful, the rooms cozy and the kitchen well stocked for cooking for large groups. We had 8 adults and an infant and always felt there was more than enough space. I would highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a beautiful and relaxing getaway.
Beautiful home for a group of 6 life time friends. House was immaculate, had loads of appliance and a lovely open kitchen. Lost of places to sit, relax and be together or on your own. Kathleen was a great host.
We absolutely loved our stay here. The property is lush with greenery so it feels completely secluded. There's a number of living spaces so every get-together feels fresh. The kitchen is well-stocked. There's internet and a TV for movie night. And it's just a few minutes from the town if you need a quick Woolies trip.
A group of friends stayed at this lovely home. Some plated gold at the nearby golf courses, others shopped and enjoyed the bicycle tracks. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed the weekend.
This property was perfect for our group of 10, secluded but had everything we needed.
The kitchen was perfect for catering for a big group (huge oven!) and the living spaces were cosy without being cramped.
Can't recommend highly enough for a trip out of town, Kathleen was an excellent host who was always on hand to answer questions regarding the property and amenities.
Thank you so much!
We had a wonderful weekend staying here. We, the parents in our adult family group, stayed in the cute cottage next to the main house. Apart from the temporarily stuck sliding door to en-suite it was great. Very comfy beds. Lovely decor. Warm and cosy in main house with gas fire. Unfortunately no fire guard so we did not use much, to ensure 16 month old did not touch fire. The wisteria in front pergola was in full bloom, making a very relaxing spot to sit and take in the pretty garden. Thank you to our host for providing this incredible property.
Fantastic house and very well managed. Kathleen and a Vincent were very swift to respond and everything was as advertised. Thank you.
