Exeter Village
Exeter is a little piece of England hiding in the Australian bush. Home to beautiful English style gardens, weatherboard cottages and modern homes. The hub is the General Store. You can browse or shop at Quintessential Exeter and The Village Pump Antiques.
Wine Escape
The Southern Highlands is home to over 12 wineries which offer excellent wines. Our favourites are St Maur, Artemis, Mt Ashby, Tertini and the beautiful cafe at Bendooley Estate. Moss Vale’s Wine Mosaic Lounge serves good wine and Southern Highlands Brewing Taphouse is a must.

There’s a market with fresh produce and locally made goods somewhere every weekend. Exeter Village Market is on the first Saturday of each month in Exeter Park. Others are Bowral, Bundanoon and Mittagong. The choice is yours to browse and enjoy.
