A HOUSE AWAY FROM HOME
A NEWLY built five-bedroom getaway is offering new levels of indulgence for a well-deserved short break.
Burrawang House in the Southern Highlands of New South Wales is an architecturally designed, modern country weather-board home ideal for groups. It can accommodate up to 14 friends or family members.
Features include a large 18th century Belgian mantle fireplace in the living room, games room, eight-person spa and quality linens.
The house also has pergolas with recycled wood, art collected over decades, antique furniture, bespoke joinery and Armadillo rugs.
Set over half a hectare and bathed in north facing sun, the country home is just a short stroll to the Burrawang Village Hotel pub and Burrawang Village General Store Café.
This is where cows graze (across the road), the air is crisp and clean, and nights are quietly star-filled, said Gabrielle Brewer, co-owner of Burrawang House.
The house is priced at $5,790 for two nights, for up to 14 people.
