Not great value for the price
Pros:

Quaint old building in a quiet location with lovely common lounge area with fireplace.

Cons:

Very expensive room, shower pressure and temperature control were poor, host was polite but not that helpful, breakfast was average and unremarkable. All guests were staying to attend a concert and hosts just told everyopne to walk the long distance to the golf club for transport. Disappointing as we all paid inflated prices for the rooms due to the concert and lack of accommodation in Bowral that night. The stay was OK but I would rush back here.

A warm and memorable stay
Pros:

We had a lovely stay at Links House. The room was cosy and comfortable, and the bathroom had been smartly renovated with a fresh, modern feel.

Dinner service was a highlight, with Michael looking after us in the restaurant. He was genuinely lovely — chatty, welcoming, and made us feel right at home.

The property itself is beautiful, especially the garden, which features a stunning Boston ivy wall that adds so much charm and character to the setting. It’s a peaceful and inviting place to unwind.

Overall, a warm and memorable stay — we’d happily return.

Cons:

As an older property, there are a few quirks to be aware of. Noise insulation isn’t the strongest, so sounds can carry a little through the hallways, which are also quite drafty and echoey. Some of the walls showed minor scuff marks, and the paving is a bit uneven in places. Improved lighting in the car park would also make arrivals and evenings feel a bit more comfortable.

Unfortunately wouldn’t stay again as room smelt damp and dusty
Pros:

- The staff were very friendly and helpful
- Breakfast was delicious and included in fee
- the grounds were picturesque with flowers/ draping greenery etc
- the dining room/ lounge etc was cosy and lovely John Olsen artwork on walls
- good tv with all the apps
- close to town

Cons:

- our room smelt like dust and damp. So much so, that we went and bought a candle
- the cleanliness was not great- mould on pillow slips, really dusty bedhead , disgusting portable mattresses (I think or blankets) that was tucked behind lounge and stunk. We asked for these to be removed - which was accommodated straight away.
- the renovation, particularly in the bathroom is really poor- concrete/ grout marks everywhere. The fixtures are already chipping
- no flyscreens on windows (yes I know it’s an old building, but it’s impractical)
