A short detour off the motorway is a region that can look rather English when there’s been rain. Bowral in particular, reads like a storybook of simpler days for kids, like Mary Poppins creator Helen Goff/PL Travers (her childhood house is still there on Holly Street and there’s a statue of Mary Poppins in Glebe Park), Ginger Meggs (the movie adaptation of the popular comic was filmed) or Don Bradman (the Bradman Museum is a must-visit for cricket fans). Drop into the Milk Factory Gallery to admire the ever changing artwork on display.
