About this property

You'll have the entire apartment to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Sauna Haus with Scandinavian design

The Sauna Haus is situated at the back of our 1 acre property. It is perfect for couples wanting to retreat from the world whilst being a short 5 min. drive from Bowral and surrounding attractions including vineyards and golf clubs.

The open plan, light filled, spacious studio apartment has a cosy, comfortable and serene feel with lovely views. A delightful space to relax and unwind with stylish modern decor with simple Scandinavian designs inspired by nature and the climate of the region.

We have intentionally made the space ‘tv free’. Bring that book you have been wanting to read or reduce your stress levels by starting something creative like colouring mandalas.

Free high quality Wifi available.

There is a wood fireplace for winter warmth during April-September. Firewood is supplied.

The main bed in the studio is a Queen bed from Koala and the sofa bed, also from Koala, is a double.

The cottage is well appointed with all necessities.

Fancy a sauna? There is a large bathroom with an infrared sauna. Unlike a traditional sauna, infrared saunas don’t heat the air around you. Instead, they use heat and light technology to warm your body directly. This technology provides extensive health benefits, including relieving pain, increased circulation, skin purification, and muscle relaxation. Deep tissue stimulation also improves cell health and tissue growth, helping you live a healthier life.

Feel free to let us know if you're not dog- lovers. A young friendly Schnoodle lives here (hypoallergenic).

This property has a dedicated dog enclosure.
We welcome well-behaved small to medium dogs (non to low shedding).

There are 2 kayaks for you to use (free).

Use of washing machine/dryer can be arranged.

Not a good experience
Arrived with our dog, a golden retriever and did not end up staying. Advertise as pet friendly but only takes dogs that do not shed. Very disappointing after a full day of travel.

Super cool
I loved Sauna Haus! Not only was it meticulously designed and crafted but cozy too and the sauna was beautiful and soothing. Only a hop skip from Bowral centre and 2 seconds to a really lovely cafe on the way to town (rabbit hole). Owners a delight and the little doggie as well and I especially loved the chooks!! A really lovely stay. Thanks to Natasha for everything.

Superb short stay
A lovely, comfortable cabin with wonderful insulation! It rained the entire time in Bowral, but we were so cosy with the wood fire! Natascha and Antony are wonderful, welcoming hosts who went out of their way to make our stay so relaxed. My dog Hugo had a ball too!

We absolutely loved staying here, making use of the gorgeous fireplace, comfy sofa and bed and of course the infra red sauna! Added bonus that our greyhound was able to stay with us and enjoy this beautiful part of Australia.

Perfect couples retreat
It is difficult to find a holiday rental that allows dogs. Usually they are run down and expensive for that is being offered, Not with the Sauna Haus. A beautiful place that is dog friendly! The Sauna Haus is a perfect retreat in beautiful Bowral. The property is spotless, luxurious and attention to detail throughout the property. Without a TV, we enjoyed evenings in front of the fireplace, read the book we never had time for, having a soothing infrared sauna and just disconnect from our busy life. The kitchen is well equipped, the bathroom spacious and the beds are top notch. The hosts are friendly and welcoming. Very recommended !

The house is wonderful. It's beautifully designed and decorated. Simple, Scandinavian styling and everything that you'll need. It's situated close to Bowral but in a lovely older established neighbourhood. The hosts were communicative and helpful. All round - great experience. Recommended.

Slice of heaven
A beautiful getaway and disconnect from the world. The space was comfortable, spacious and well kept/ looked after. Owners are friendly and were accommodating to requests/ easy communication. Location was lush with nature, fury friends (puppy and rabbits), and quiet. Wish to have stayed longer, would be great in the winter time to utilise the fireplace. Highly recommend.

The Sauna Haus was a really beautiful place to stay for a couple of nights. The location was very quiet and only 5mins from Bowral main street. The host Natascha was lovely and even gave us a bottle of bubbly for NYE!

Absolute comfort
A really top-tier property - beautifully curated and supremely comfortable. The design is amazing - spacious kitchen, lounge/bedroom with log fire and enormous bathroom with infrared-sauna. The super-comfortable bed, linens, plentiful towels and welcome package made us feel truly cared for. The lock-up garage was a bonus; it enabled us to bring our dog and have him warm and safe outside the house on wintery nights.
