Sherwood Park - A rural atmosphere in town / set on 2 acres



"BEST VALUE IN TOWN WITHOUT COMPROMISE"

The property is positioned close to historic Milton Park and walking distance to Bong Bong Race course.

A perfect place for family reunions, golfing events, wedding guests, girls weekends or any other event where many bedrooms are required.
Offering space (set on 2 acres) and privacy and still only 5 min drive to town, complimentary WIFI.

Sherwood Park is a large, beautifully furnished home in outstanding condition with 6 bedrooms and numerous living areas set on a magnificent 2 acres of landscaped lawns and gardens. Adjoining is a 50 acre reserve with wonderful walking tracks and rural views.
The single level, fully air conditioned, 6 bedroom, 2 1/2 bathroom design is both luxurious and with lots of cosy character for you to rug up with a glass of wine in front of the slow combustion wood heater.

There are 4 living areas:
* family and dinning for 12 off the large country kitchen, with slow combustion
wood heater (wood supplied)
* a formal lounge with gas heating, television and DVD player
* a sunroom
* a huge north facing covered patio furnished BBQ area with views across the gardens


Almost every window and each of the 2 sundrenched verandahs have views over the home's gardens.

The large country kitchen has a modern granite countertop, smeg appliances.

The kitchen is equipped with full sets of quality crockery and cutlery, microwave, stove, fridge, dishwasher, electric frypan, BBQ tools, toaster, kettle, champagne and wine glasses.

A complimentary continental breakfast is supplied for your first morning together with tea & coffee. There is also a cappuccino coffee maker.

There are enough quality beds to comfortably sleep 13 people. Each room is private and has views of the gardens.

The roomy laundry contains a washing machine. There is a clothesline in the backyard.

Outside, there is a sun-filled north/east facing very large covered patio including B.B.Q and outdoor furniture overlooking the fishpond and gardens. The gardens themselves are safely fenced and a wonderful place for adults and children to explore there is also a set of swings. You may even spot a couple of rabbits!

Visit the many excellent restaurants and alfresco cafes, just 5 minutes drive or cycle into town via the safe cycleway that traverses around Bowral.

Sherwood Park is ideally situated near 6 of the most scenic drives to Berrima, Bunndanoon, Robertson, Burrawang, Kiama and Kangaroo Valley.

This house had everything we needed for a few old friends and their families to get together for a wonderful weekend in the country. The house was spotless, roomy, and provided great breakfasts, and the outdoor areas were huge and perfect for kids games.

Great Group Stay
We loved our stay at Sherwood Park, the house was perfectly set up for our group and everyone agreed we'd happily return for another stay in the near future. The property is true to the online images and description and is in a handy location to explore the surrounding areas with ease. The fire kept us all warm and the beds were super comfy.

Spacious family home with lifestyle options
Great accommodation and garden surrounds. Requires some TLC to enhance for contemporary guests. Considering rates for home, disappointing to cover furniture /tables with cheap plastic and carpet square over main carpeted living room. This implies lack of trust in guests. No basic bread or cheese boards, very few modern utensils for food presentation in-house, very basic at best. Few matching plates or crockery. Magazines from 2001-2011 on tables. If trying to offer modern ambience then audit/ updates of amenities required. Garaging and front entrance door all locked which if hot or inclement weather is not user friendly. In particular if an emergency, no front door access could be problematic. Overall large comfortable floor plan with good bedrooms and bathrooms for large family or friends.

Family Xmas in July for older siblings
We loved the property, well maintained and spacious. Garden beautiful, can imagine how wonderful it would look if it hadn't been raining so much. Lots of places to sit in groups inside and outside. Could do with an extra shower, with 8 adults and 2 showers lots of queueing. We were surprised by the cleaning fee which is hidden in house rules, no mention was made of it when we booked. We would stay again as the location and presentation make it a great property. Love a fireplace and plenty of wood was provided.

A welcoming and warm place to stay
We arrived to find the fire alight and warming the house nicely on a cold July day. It is quite large and the eleven of us (eight adults and three children) fitted in quite nicely. The kitchen is well equipped. The yard outside looked inviting, but it was too wet for us to take advantage. All in all, a great place for a family stay.

Bowral Retreat
We booked Sherwood Park for our Book Club retreat. It was wonderful. We walked in to the fire burning and a cake with a bundle of supplies to enjoy. It was a sprawling home with plenty of room to spread out. Could have done with another shower. It was older style but everything was spotless. The area was quiet and we enjoyed walking round the neighbourhood. A lovely place to unwind.

Comfortable house for a large group
I rented this house for 11 members of my family arriving for my son’s wedding and it was comfortable for everyone. The house is surrounded by a beautiful and well-maintained garden. It created a wonderful background to family photos. We did not have time to use two additional internal living areas but the main room was big enough for our group. The linen and towels were white and crispy. Plenty of toilet paper for our 4 nights stay. No access to garages but plenty of car park spaces outside. No Wi-Fi, but for our busy wedding weekend it was not essential. My family was happy.
