Fantastic Family Get Away
Our accommodation was of the highest standard, clean, great amenities, comfortable bedding, with a generous welcome from the host Carol, providing more than ample breakfast for each day, fresh flowers on arrival and a complementary bottle of good wine. There is plenty of room for both adults and kids. Our family of 14 felt very spoilt and totally enjoyed our stay. We highly recommended Arborea for a holiday treat in the beautiful Highlands. Enjoy

Great for a family reunion or group of friends
This lovely, large home had ample space for our extended family. Carol had thought of everything including providing some staples to start us off. It was across the road from a park, well located close to Bowral Centre. Our whole family enjoyed our catch up and we would definitely rebook again in the future.

Perfect Accommodation for a Large Group
Our extended family celebrated Christmas at Arborea Country Holiday House. We had a wonderful time and it was the perfect venue for a relaxing holiday, with space for everyone. The main living area had plenty of room for us all to be together but we still used the second living area that was set up with games for the children, the second dining room was used for a quiet cup of tea and even the second kitchen was utilised with all the extra Christmas cooking. Lots of platters, bowls, cutlery and glasses which is often overlooked. Comfortable beds with lovely linen and plenty of towels. Carol was so helpful and friendly and we really appreciated her sharing the beautiful space.
