Osborn House
Brand-new and utterly boutique, Osborn House is an award-winning Southern Highlands escape surrounded by century-old pines, rambling bushland and the gentle sighing of the Australian breeze – making the Conde Nast ‘Best New Hotels’ list along with Travel and Leisure’s prestigious ’100 Best New Hotels in the World’ for 2023. Lovingly restored from the 19th-century heritage-listed original and elevated by award-winning interior design and walls filled with local art, each of the property’s 22 rooms is brimming with country charm and quirky style. The facilities are top-notch, with a dazzling lap pool, tennis court, sauna, fitness centre and the Osborn House Spa, one of the first spas in Australia to offer innovative Akwaterra treatments. Two exceptional onsite restaurants are guaranteed to tantalise – feast upon rustic, locally sourced favourites and cocktails at George’s or savour garden-to-plate haute cuisine at Dinah’s.
Nestled in the heart of the Southern Highlands, only two hours from Sydney, Osborn House offers access to a wealth of experiences. Head out on an adventure into the pristine national park and wander along the Dimmocks Creek Walking Trail until you reach Riverview Lookout to observe the rolling landscape from above, and venture to the Glow Worm Glen Viewing Platform at sunset to witness the magical transformation of the cave igniting into millions of beaming lights. The hotel is located approximately a two-hour drive from Sydney International Airport (SYD). Airport transfers are not included in your package, please plan accordingly.

The Hotel – A taste of old-world luxury in the Southern Highlands
Among the breathtaking natural beauty and historic marvels of New South Wales’ Southern Highlands, Osborn House offers old-world country charm elevated by modern luxury. The heritage-listed property, originally built in 1892, has been lovingly resurrected by some of the finest minds available, including celebrated interior designer Linda Boronkay and Australian design partner Alan McMahon of Mac Design Studio. It’s a level of attention and meticulous care that shines through in every aspect of the Osborn House, deserving of every superlative – boutique, historic and ultra-luxe, all surrounded by the region’s sweeping beauty.
A 25-metre heated pool, a tennis court, sauna, gym and steam room round out Osborn House’s offering. Sink into bliss at the Osborn House Spa – the treatments begin with simple yogic breathwork to centre and ground the spirit before unfolding into scrubs, soaks and massages. It’s one of the first spas in Australia to offer innovative Akwaterra treatments, synergising earth and water to refresh body and soul.
Foodies will love Osborn House’s onsite restaurants, developed for whatever mood you’re in. Feast upon rustic, locally sourced sandwiches, burgers and lovingly hand-made pasta, accompanied by views of Morton National Park at relaxed eatery George’s, or savour garden-to-plate haute cuisine at Dinah’s – no matter where you choose, you’ll be blown away.
Your Handpicked Inclusions – Daily breakfast, dining credit and cocktails
Start each morning with a hearty breakfast at George’s – dine a la carte on a select menu of favourites as you gaze upon breathtaking views of the nearby Morton National Park. You’ll also be able to enjoy A$100 dining credit to spend at either restaurant, depending on your fancy – try pumpkin ravioli or ratatouille made from vegetables handpicked from the hotel’s gardens at Dinah’s, or savour every bite of the sirloin Reuben sandwich at George’s.

A glass of rosé will kick start your stay while daily restocked non-alcoholic minibar drinks will ensure you are well hydrated for days of fun.
