Excellent accomodation and location.

Studio Rouge pleasantly provided roominess, comfort and everything one could wish for in booked accommodation. It was as if the owners had just popped out and let us occupy their own new home for a few days. Spotlessly clean, excellent facilities and a lovely environment - a perfect place for a short holiday in the Bowral / Mittagong area.

Great cottage in the heart of Bowral.

Great accommodation for our visit to Bowral. Studio Rouge is within easy walking distance to town and and an easy drive to Centennial Vineyards. John was very welcoming and check in was seamless. Would highly recommend if you are looking for an affordable, clean, quiet self contained cottage for two.

So private and quiet

We arrived at night on a dark night, which found it a little tricky to find, but we were delighted at its privacy. Self-contained and well appointed, we had a lovely two nights stay. We would recommend improving the wi-fi, but otherwise it was just perfect!

Quality solitude

Studio Rouge is the perfect home away from home. The studio is well appointed, so clean and the perfect level of quirkiness to draw you in and relax you. Maria and John have created an excellent alternative to the sterile hotel feel. Very central to Bowral walking distance to cafes and restaurants. A+ accommodation.

Convenient and comfortable.

Well equipped and spotless studio with welcoming light breakfast provisions included. Bed very comfortable. Driveway is narrow and a little hard to find as unmarked. Internet a tad patchy and the bedroom could be more restful with a blockout blind. On the whole, however, a delightful stay and would definitely return.

Wonderful

A very pleasant stay in a very quiet location.The accommodation is far nicer than the on-line photos show. The kitchen is very well equipped. There is a shelf of books to read and DVD'S to watch, along with TV. Large windows allow the north sun to shine in. Many heaters are provided but very little heating is required to make the rooms warm and cosy due to the thermal efficiency of the building. Lots of cafes and restaurants close by plus 2 supermarkets. 10 minutes travel time to Burradoo and Berrima.

Friendly place

We had a great week here. It's a good location for exploring the area, the studio was clean and well-equipped and we found Johnny to be very friendly and helpful in advising about places to visit. We had a small issue which he quickly resolved, then he checked that all was well the following day. We would highly recommend this accommodation.
