Chateau Bowral Luxury Southern Highlands Estate with Poolhouse

Six of us ladies stayed at Chateau Bowral from Thursday to Sunday for our girls' weekend away, and we absolutely loved it! The house was beautiful, and we all felt a little bit special staying somewhere so lovely. There was so much space for everyone to spread out and relax, and the beds were really comfortable. The gardens and outdoor areas were gorgeous, with fantastic views and plenty of room to sit back and enjoy the surroundings. The kitchen had everything we needed, and we loved having so many different places to sit and enjoy a meal, whether it was in the kitchen, dining room or outside. The location was great too, just a short drive into Bowral, and we thought it was excellent value for money, especially when sharing between six of us. We had such a wonderful weekend filled with lots of laughs, good food and great company. All six of us thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would happily come back again. Chateau Bowral was the perfect place for our girls' getaway!

The house has a few features that are showing their age, they just seem to add to its charm and character. One thing worth mentioning is the water pressure in the bathrooms. Although there are three bathrooms, we found that only one shower could comfortably be used at a time. With six ladies getting ready, we simply took turns and managed perfectly well. It certainly didn't spoil our stay.

Wow. What a property. This place is so magical. We came for a girls weekend away and the photos don’t do it justice. From the moment you drive through the gates and see the views of acres of land from the Porte cochere, it’s just stunning. They have sheep and a cow who was very friendly and came over to us to say hi! They also had two baby lambs! So cute. The interior of the house itself has beautiful high ceilings, a grand piano, and stained glass windows. When the light hits them at golden hour in the afternoon, it was just breathtaking. The kitchen and dining room are such grand spaces where we spent a lot of time all together. We felt like royalty staying here! Also such a great house to take photos in because every room is beautifully styled. The house is very well heated with heating in every room including the bathrooms! Great for our winter stay. There’s a fireplace in the dining room too. The beds are very comfortable and the master suite is huge! The kitchen has everything you need to make a home cooked meal. Amanda and Sammy (owner and property manager) were so lovely and accomodating. They offered us early check in and late check out. They made up all the beds as singles so everyone got their own bed (aside form the master suite which is a double but was fine for us! They gave us a couple of bottles of Centennial wine on arrival and offered a discount for an extended stay which is so generous. This house made our trip to Bowral so memorable. We can’t wait to come back!

There’s nothing we didn’t like.

The inside of the Chateau, gardens, location and whole ambience was absolutely stunning. Chateau Bowral is a very luxurious venue so if you want somewhere really special then this is the place. We were a party of 7 adults and 5 children whose ages range from 9 months to 6 years of age. We were celebrating my husband's 70th and daughter's 38th birthdays. Sammy the Property Manager and Amanda the owner were easy to contact and they bent over backwards to make our stay as comfortable and as memorable as possible. The kitchen was fully equipped which enabled us to have a chef come and cook dinner for us for our main celebration. The house was beautifully warm and cosy with log fires and central heating. The children loved playing outside and watching Sammy feed the animals. It's a short drive to Bowral town centre and also to Burradoo Park Farm. There's also a heated indoor pool to enjoy. It's difficult to describe just how special our stay was. We didn't want to leave!

There was nothing that we didn't like.
