Burradoo (/ˈbʌrəduː/ BURR-ə-doo) is a suburb of Bowral, in the Southern Highlands of New South Wales, Australia, in Wingecarribee Shire.[2]
The village of Burradoo is well known as an expensive area in the Southern Highlands (among other residential areas including Mount Gibraltar, Knotts Hill, Central Bowral, Kangaloon and East Kangaloon). This is because Burradoo is home to many historic manor houses and large modern architectural homes on small acreages. Often Burradoo is compared to parts of England largely reflected in the architecture & gardens.
Burradoo comes from an Aboriginal phrase meaning many brigalow trees.[2]
