Food scene

Station Coffee House has a wonderful ambiance about it, while serving delicious breakfast/lunch/treats, coffee, and a yummy chocolate bullet on the side. (Has to be my favourite part... yum!) Although, you may want to book in advance to eat in over the weekend as it can get quite busy!

If you're wanting a quality take away coffee or a yummy egg & bacon roll, Early Bird is a must. We are regulars here as the coffee is very consistently made! If in a rush, you can even text ahead and pick up on your way through.

A traditional family run business who converse in Italian, which adds to the experience. The woodfired pizzas are beautiful, but make sure to book as far in advance as possible for dinners, as they are a popular dinner option in the Southern Highlands.

Berkelouw Book Barn has a cosy atmosphere with lit fires on those typical chilly days in the Southern Highlands. The staff are very professional and attentive, food is scrumptious and the grounds are divine. Get lost in the book store section, or wander through their gardens... you won't be disappointed. Again, be sure to secure your table early, as bookings are limited and this is a fave especially in the cooler months.

Sightseeing

One of our daughter's favourite places to go, is Lake Alexandra to feed the friendly ducks oats, search for turtles, ride her bike around the path that surrounds the entire lake, go for a quick and easy bush walk, and definitely have a play at the park. Even more appealing for groups, there are sheltered tables and BBQs available for use too. It is a must visit for families and groups!

Recently renovated, this is one of the favourite parks around the Southern Highlands. Suitable for kids of all ages, with a large flying fox, swing set, in ground elastic trampolines, wooden castle and boat. Gumnut Patisserie (Berrima) is just a short walk away for a good coffee and even better sweet yummy treats.
