Bowral


Description:

It's time to visit the biggest and most sophisticated of all the towns and villages in the Highlands. Home to an exciting and eclectic mix of eateries, (including Biota, a hatted restaurant), wineries, boutique shops and country markts and events. Nestled at the base of Mount Gibraltar, Bowral is famous for its country gardens and fields of tulips in spring. Just 115 kilometres south west of Sydney, Bowral has always been a fashionable holiday destination for Sydney-siders. Stunning private gardens, part of grand old estates, are a delight in spring and autumn while shopping experiences are varied - from antiques to home wares, jewellery, arts and crafts. A highlight for cricket fans is the Sir Donald Bradman Oval and the International Cricket Hall of Fame. Outdoor sports include fly-fishing on the lake or golf at one of the town's excellent courses. Bowral Lookout is well worth a visit. Surrounding towns and villages include Mittagong, Moss Vale, Robertson, East Kangaloon, Glenquarry and Kangaloon.
