Bowral retreat

Attending a work related conference last weekend, I had the rare pleasure of combining my artistic interests with work. We stayed at the former estate of the Hordern family on acres of grounds called Milton Park. Lovely place with delightful gardens.


The vistas were so well conceived, offering peeps into different garden rooms. I just had to sketch what I could, whenever I could.


Food was also terrific and we all over ate although this was somewhat mitigated by a game of tennis on the well kept courts, watched by a small healthy herd of highland cattle.
