Description

Situated in a quiet loop street, this comfortable family home is available for short and medium term lets. Rather than stay at a B&B, rent an entire house. You will be less than a 5 minute walk from the popular Watson shops which provide groceries, a post office, a take-away, restaurants, hair salons and more. Plus bus connections to anywhere in Canberra.

Cook at home inside in the well equipped kitchen or outside under cover on the BBQ.

Cockatoo House has one bedroom with a queen bed, one bedroom with bunks, one bedroom with a single bed and a study with another single bed. A portacot is available.

For visitors to the ANU, either catch a bus or ride the bike trails and get to the ANU in less than 20 minutes.

The Canberra Attractions

There is so much to see in Canberra and lots of it is free! Don't miss Old Parliament House or the War Memorial Museum to get a close up look at our history. Visit the Australian National Museum, Questacon, the National Gallery of Australia, the Botanic Gardens and Lake Burley-Griffin. If you visit the High Court or Parliament House at the right time you will see democracy in action!

Guest Reviews

 
  • "Cockatoo House is a warm and practical place to stay. It was perfect for our needs (4 adults, 1 child) and the ideal location for attending a Trade Fair at Exhibition Park."
    Melinda, August 2009
     
  • "Great place to stay, we had a car and is very close to shops, attractions and amenities. Not very photogenic from the exterior, is actually a very welcoming home. Very warm in winter, with a glass fronted gas fire and central heating as well. Recommended for families with 2-3 kids."
    Simon, July 2009
     
  • "I booked this last minute for a film crew and it is the perfect accommodation for any group. So glad there was a heater and you feel just like a part of the neighbourhood. "

  • "Comfortable accommodation for family although the backyard could do with some tidying up so the kids can play."

  • "Cockatoo house ticked all the boxes for us. There were 6 of us staying and none of us could say a bad word about this house. The living areas were spacious and it was an all round comfortable house which made you feel like you were at home. It's location was fantastic, very handy to everything you need. I'd love to visit Cockatoo House again!!!"
