A unique Southern Highlands experience

Enjoy the comfort, coziness, character and privacy of a generous sized yurt/cabin in a quiet spring garden setting located in the old and central part of Bowral, offering very comfortable accommodation for two adults. You're just minutes away from the main shopping centre, Bradman Museum, cycle/walking tracks, golf course, swimming pool, tennis courts, national parks and wineries. It's an easy stroll to the nearest coffee shop for a quick snack.

Beautiful space, a snug little Yurt perfect to experience a southern highlands winter. Our hosts were extremely accomodating. Despite it being in their large backyard, the space felt very private! I will be coming back.
