Relaxed old fashion charm in a beautiful garden setting

Lisa Australia

The location was great for access into town and points of interest. It was very quiet and peaceful. The accommodation itself was very clean and comfortable.

Leanne Australia

I loved the coziness of Margaret’s place, the beautiful gardens and the closeness to the town centre.

Lily Australia

The property and our accommodation was so surprising. Its like entering an amazing secret garden with fairies riding around of dragonflies. The Devon Long Barn was fabulous. Really well equipped, and oh... the super king bed was so comfortable, you'll want to book a few more days. The only pain, and the is true for the Southern Highlands is the internet. So up and down, even the TV (which is a beauty) has difficulty streaming. SO... take plenty of wine and nibbles and you'll be right. PS: the owner Margaret is wonderful, We loved all her notes..lol. 10 out of 10 - we'll be back for sure.

Jim Australia

The cottage was clean and had everything we needed. It was warm and comfortable and cosy. Also very private with beautiful gardens to explore .

Michelle Australia

The quintessential Southern Highlands escape. Charming and private little cottage on a beautiful country estate with amazing gardens. The cottage is presented beautifully, with soft music and low lights on arrival it's a romantics dream. Whilst not quite walking distance to town (possible if feeling energetic) a short drive and you can be strolling around the quaint shops and lovely restaurants and cafes that Bowral has to offer. Would highly recommend.

David Australia

Longbarn has everything your need to make your stay enjoyable. Queen size bed, well fitted out kitchen and plenty of coffee to sit and look at the magnificent gardens from kitchen window.

John Australia

The established gardens are stunning. We spent time walking through the gardens. Spending time outdoors to enjoy and make the most of the surroundings.

Daniella Australia

Grounds are really nice to wander around in - heaps of space

Mathew Australia

My friend and I visited Bowral during the long weekend and stayed at Devon Long Barn. We were so pleased when we checked in and found our little private cottage. The place is super cute, sparkling clean, and comfy. Communication with Margaret was easy. Would go back anytime!
