So excited for this collaboration with Joadja Distillery @ Joadja Historic Site 🤍

A perfect addition to the No. 52 Bowral guest experience.

Guests can now enjoy a complimentary dram of locally crafted whisky while relaxing in the library, curled up by the fire and surrounded by cricketing history.

Supporting local producers is something we’re passionate about, and it’s a privilege to showcase one of the Southern Highlands’ most iconic distilleries.

The perfect way to end a day exploring Bowral. 🥃🔥

Heritage doesn’t have to be boring…

Especially when you blend old and new with a touch of whimsy.

This telephone lamp is a perfect example. Created by , it takes something nostalgic and familiar and transforms it into a piece of art. Rather than ending up in landfill, these forgotten treasures are given a whole new life.

It’s exactly the kind of detail we love at No. 52 - honouring the past while reimagining it for today.

Now tell me… do you remember how these old beauties worked? ☎️

A little corner of the Pink Room, filled with stories from another time 🤍

This antique doctor’s waiting room chair sits proudly in the corner, a beautiful reminder of days gone by.

And those tiny ladies’ boots? A wonderful nod to an era when life seemed a little less complicated, fashions were a little more formal, and feet were apparently a fair bit smaller!

It’s these little details that make No. 52 Bowral such a special place to explore 🤍

I know when I’m beaten 😅

After repeatedly managing to kill the live plants in the No. 52 Studio, I decided it was time to channel a little inner Tonia Todman and embrace the faux variety instead.

Honestly? They look pretty convincing to me 🌸

What do you think - yay or nay?

One of our favourite rooms at No. 52 Bowral 🏏

The Library is filled with fascinating memorabilia and sporting treasures, each with a story to tell.

Settle into a comfortable chair, enjoy a complimentary whisky, and browse the memorabilia compendium at your leisure. A quiet moment of nostalgia, best enjoyed slowly 🤍

A quiet moment of reflection 🤍

When we first stepped into No. 52, we could see her potential, but we also knew the journey ahead would be anything but simple.

There were countless decisions, challenges, late nights, moments of doubt, and moments of pure joy. Through it all, our vision remained the same: to honour her history while creating a beautiful, welcoming place for others to enjoy.

Now, when I catch glimpses like this, I find myself reflecting on just how far she has come.

Every room tells a story. Every detail has been considered. Every corner holds a little piece of the journey.

We’re incredibly grateful to be her custodians and even more grateful to share her with guests who appreciate her as much as we do.

Some dreams take time, but they’re worth every step 🤍
