A beautiful home for a short stay with our family. Very thoughtfully and generously appointed, plenty of room for the kids to play, the jacuzzi was a big hit! Only a short drive from most of Canberra’s best attractions. We will certainly be back!
A convenient and suitable house for us with thoughtful extras and a super responsive host. We didn't use the jacuzzi but it was running when we got there and there was a sense of being welcomed. We'd stay again.
A quiet spot to stay. Home as described. It was well appointed with everything we required. The spa was great. Everything spotlessly clean. Off street parking was great. Would definitely stay again. Highly recommend to others.
We stayed here for 8 nights. We picked the location as it was close to Namadji National Park for hiking and also provided easy access into Canberra city to visit the National Museum, Art Galley, markets, etc. The house is exactly as shown in the photos. The beds and living areas are very comfortable. The kitchen is well set up for a self catering holiday and there is a good gas bbq on the back deck (along with the Jacuzzi). Communication with Michelle was quick and easy at all times. WiFi worked well.
