Lovely family getaway!

Very warm and cosy house, had everything we needed for a lovely family week away. Great location for a short walk into town. The games room was perfect for family time together away from gadgets/screens. Really enjoyed our week away, despite the rain, and would definitely recommend.

Amazing

I would highly recommend staying at The Harrolds property. We had fantastic communication, and they accommodated (where they could) our changes to dates, that we needed and were nothing but helpful and we really appreciated that as a business when unexpected delays happen from time to time.

Very comfortable stay in Bowral

We really enjoyed our stay at Kilmeedy (4 adults + dog). Very clean, well-equipped, heated, securely fenced and I think the most comfortable lounge space I've had away as a group. Often there's not enough seating when you have a multi-bedroom holiday property but, not the case here. Location was great, central and able to walk to town. Had a great stay and will stay again. Thank you!

The perfect getaway

From the moment you arrive at Kilmeedy you cannot help but relax. Everything you need, including a games lounge, is provided. We had our 2 dogs as well and they loved exploring the back yard or just sitting on their beds while we relaxed watching a movie or perusing the wonderful selection of books. Definitely a home away from home and we were sad to leave. Would love stay at Kilmeedy again.

Wedding in Bowral

We enjoyed our stay there as well as the offer of a later check out - much appreciated! Very good location and lovely accommodation. The only disappointments were that there wasn’t much toilet paper, only one dish washing tablet , and dog hairs on furniture. Maybe that’s being petty and we didn’t look in the right places for the supplies.

Bliss in Bowral

Great set up with a lovely cottage (and roses as promised) and outdoor/garage games room, bbq and fire pit. The cottage has everything you need. The beds were comfortable, there are heating and cooling options, plenty of crockery, cutlery, pots, pans etc and many lovely touches such as the coffee (pod) machine, chocolates, milk, books and games. Weekdays I would walk around the corner to The Corner Store on Park road and grab coffees and baked sweet and savoury treats including Moonacre bread from the friendly owner and on the weekend, I would walk in the other direction to Rush coffee for my coffee and treat fix. Such a lovely town and we will hopefully return to explore further and enjoy the comforts of Kilmeedy again.
