Braemar is a Northern Village of the Southern Highlands of New South Wales, Australia in Wingecarribee Shire. It is located 2km north-east of Mittagong and is often considered to include the hamlet villages of Balaclava and Willow Vale.

Braemar had a passenger train station on the Picton Loop railway line, which opened as Rushs Platform on March 1, 1867. In 1892, it was renamed Braemar to coincide with the renaming of the village. On August 5, 1978, the station was closed to passenger services. At present, the station only services a concrete sleeper supplier and the company Clyde Engineering.
