Milton Park Country House Hotel and Spa
Milton Park Country House Hotel and Spa is the epitome of what you want from a Bowral escape. The grounds are filled with Oaks, Elms and Weeping Beeches – a hint to the English countryside that inspired the Edwardian-style gardens, while inside, the hotel is timeless elegance with most suites containing an open fireplace and two seat bathtub. If you’re hungry, Hordern’s Fine Dining overlooks the gardens and you can enjoy a two-course meal from $85 per person. If you want a memorable weekend in luxury surrounds, Milton Park is the perfect choice.
Links House
With an in-house library, two sitting rooms with comfy chairs and an outside area with boules, all you need to bring for a Links House getaway is yourself and a change of clothes. Built in 1928, Links retains its old-world charm but with modern-day luxury. Bowral town centre is less than 2km away and provides a nice stroll if the weather’s good. Or take advantage of an in-room massage or beauty treatment. Go on, you deserve it!
Sebel Bowral
Comfy beds and that home away from home feeling is what you’ll get at the Sebel Bowral Heritage Park Aparthotel. Newly refurbished, the Sebel now has modern, cottage style kitchens, fireplaces and stylish bathrooms throughout. The apartments are self-contained and located just 900 metres from the famous International Cricket Hall of Fame (formerly the Don Bradman Museum). Bowral Golf Club is a neat 2-minute walk and there’s also an indoor heated pool and fitness centre so you can keep working out while you’re away.
Gibraltar Hotel
Couples and golf-lovers will feel right at home at The Gibraltar boutique hotel and spa. Get up early and catch the sunrise before hitting 18 holes at the Country Club then relax with a drink in Harvey’s Bar. Whether you choose the more basic Woodlands Suite or the luxe Ambassador, you’ll be right on the doorstep of the forest, fields and vineyards of beautiful Bowral.
Peppers Craigieburn
This 72-room country residence has its own 9-hole golf course, landscaped gardens, tennis court and billiards room. After you’ve ticked off your choice of activities, book a Peppers Craigieburn picnic and retreat to the lawn with a basket of local goodies. Then, simply breathe in the fresh Southern Highlands air or cosy up inside with a traditional high tea.
