Featured on SYDNEY WEEKENDER and reviewed by the SUN HERALD TRAVEL SECTION
"Few bed & breakfast places offer a self-contained experience. Even fewer offer a throughly original feel. Southdown does both and virtually demands that you dream a little. No other place we have stayed at has quite offered the intrigue of the Southdown Stable"

Great!
The property was stunning, with gorgeous gardens to walk around and enjoy. Our ‘Stable’ had a lovely country feel, and was so lovely and comfortable. Our hosts were lovely.

Cozy in a great location
We had a lovely few days in Margaret's property and she was a wonderful host. It's a good location, just a few minutes drive into Bowral, though it's nice and secluded.

Great winter stay in Burradoo
This is our second time staying at Southdown but our first time with our young daughter. She loved all the 'olden day' treasures around the house and we had lots of fun exploring the gardens (even saw a possum in broad daylight!). It was a cold weekend but we were extremely comfortable and cosy by the fire. Thanks once again for a lovely stay!
