When Bridgerton came to Bowral
April 16 to 23 was a unique week in Bowral, after Netflix chose the town to promote the third series of Shondaland’s Bridgerton. In came the flowers, the flags, the fans and the stars.

Perfect balance
After buying a grand 1920s Bowral property, the owners decided the house and garden could have a far better connection. They show us their luxurious house renovation and extensive garden revamp.

Moments of truth 
In July, Clara Adolphs’ new and older works will form only the second solo show at Ngununggula. Clara often paints from vintage photographs: “In a way, I’m trying to put the life back into a moment that’s passed.”

Sailing ahead
Sailing doesn’t seem a likely sport for someone who is blind, but it’s meant the world to Burradoo’s James Hunter, who lost his sight in 2015. He talks about the work of the Making Waves Foundation.

A classic country garden
After buying a Bowral property with an established garden, Jan and Geoff Buttenshaw began making it their own.

Let’s swap
Street libraries, crop swaps, clothes swaps and share waste schemes all make life better for everyone, writes Kirstine McKay, who recently hosted her 20th clothes swap.

Meat and greet 
The Australian Meat Industry Council represents post- farmgate business in the red meat industry, which clocked up $17 billion in exports last year. We meet Mittagong-based CEO Patrick Hutchinson.

A camel in the paddock
Camels are rare in the Highlands, but not at Elouera Vale in Mittagong, where there are currently 27. Its owners, who run courses for camel owners and fans, explain the benefits of owning camels.

Art and soul
Venice is on many people’s travel wish list but its Art Biennale should be too, says Josephine Grieve. She has plenty of tips for anyone visiting this year (it runs until November 24) or in the future.
