One of the earliest settlements, Bowning is a quaint village bursting with history, great food, antiques and a touch of shopping. Bowning is home to a renewed and growing community. It lies at the foot of the 796 metre Bowning Hill and provides a good idea of how early explorers and settlers saw the area. The town echoes a colourful past with its old Troopers Cottage, Cobb & Co Coaching Station and two beautiful churches, the Anglican and Catholic.

Only an hour from Canberra and with access to health and education services in nearby Yass, Bowning combines the best of country living with the perks of larger cities nearby. Local day care and preschools include Goodstart Early Learning, Yass Little Learners, YECCA, and Yass Montessori Preschool. Meanwhile, older children can study at Bowning Public School, Binalong Public School, Yass-Berindaba Public School, Mt Carmel School, Yass Public School, and Yass High School. Further opportunities for adults are also available Yass TAFE (Illawarra Tafe). With medium house prices of $385,000 and medium rental prices at $340 per week, Bowning is too good to miss!
