Holiday at Highgate

Highgate is a beautiful home in the heart of Bowral, a mere 2-hour drive from Sydney. This spacious, artistic, and inviting house became our cozy retreat, where we gathered by the fire and prepared a delightful dinner in its pristine kitchen.

The home exudes character and charm, and its proximity to boutique shops, restaurants, and cafes is an added bonus, not to mention the stunning lookout point offering panoramic views of the valley.

Whether you're planning a getaway with family, friends, or a significant other, Highgate has much to offer, including an incredibly beautiful antique bathtub, cosy loft space for lounging, and large outdoor space for relaxing. Each room boasts a unique and artistic touch, providing constant entertainment in the most captivating way.

It's not just a home; Highgate is a unique & beautiful space, just waiting to be experienced.

Bowral look out is just a few minutes from Highgate. We drove up to the top of the hill and walk around this beautiful look out - the panoramic views were beautiful.
