so cute and cosy

we stayed for 2 nites for a wedding nearby. This clean and neat BnB had everything you could possibly need to be comfortable. The hosts have taken time to make sure that everywhere your eye rests there is something interesting to see. I look forward to trips again in the future. A Mid winter w the fire going would be great XXX

A little gem : )

We enjoyed our stay. A Peaceful and secure location with all we needed. Cute kitchen with all mod cons. Great options for nights on the lounge watching TV after a busy day sightseeing. Heater works a treat had the place warm in minutes. Thank you Carol. We Highly recommend Blue Cow.

Comfortable, convenient and super clean

My sister and I had a lovely stay at the Blue Cow. It was super convenient for visiting places like Bowral, Fitzroy Falls and Kangaroo Valley and situated in a very quiet cul de sac. Super clean unit with lots of nice touches and a good kitchenette and also a huge digital TV. The remote confused us immensely not being familiar with Apple products but the host helped us out and we were fine after that but if you're like us, take the time to run through it with the host. Would also recommend the Thai restaurant in the middle of the main street as the food was superb!! Thank you Carol for a lovely relaxing stay.

Well appointed accommodation close to the Robertson village

Stayed at this property as a couple over 3 nights. Found it to be very clean, spacious and well appointed. Was an incredibly quiet location, yet conveniently located only a few blocks from the Main Street of Robertson and provided a central base to visit the many national parks, waterfalls and litter towns like Moss Vale, Kangaroo Valley, Bowral and Mittagong. Our hosts were incredibly respectful of our privacy but offered us timely and useful information about the property and the general area as needed. The gas fireplace, 60 inch TV and fully equipped kitchen made for a cosy stay during the colder months. Thank you for your hospitality Carol and Jed, we look forward to staying with you again when we visit the beautiful Southern Highlands.

Travelers from Queensland

After traveling down from Queensland, it was a lovely experience to be able to open the door and boil the kettle for a cup of tea. Really great layout, everything you need, with privacy and easy access back into town. Carol was extremely thorough in her instructions for finding the property and retrieving the key. We were there for a wedding, but spent a few hours exploring the town. Had a really great time and a lovely weekend.
