Boscobel Cottage: The Southern Highlands Hideaway We Almost Kept Secret
Two bedroom, 120 private acres, and kangaroos that wander right past your deck at sunrise. A fireplace that begs for slow evenings, a hot tub facing nothing but paddocks and stars, and paddock picnics under a 200-year-old fig tree.
