“What I find notable is the bistro and wood-fired pizzeria, and that this property is a stone's throw from Bowral's attractions. Entertainment options, including live music and a gaming lounge, add appeal. I think that families in particular will appreciate the range of room sizes and family-friendly amenities.”
