Canberra catch up

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Canberra and the great facilities of the house. The shower and heater were our highlights! Great location, close to shops, comfy beds, recliners and room to spread out. Thank you.

Location location

Great location to Dickson restaurants and shops , just a few minutes walk. Lovely new apartment that is very quiet even though it’s on Northbourne. Very comfortable beds with quality linen. Lovely bathrooms. Would stay here again.

Great place to call home away from home

We as an adult family came together from Tasmania, Melbourne and Adelaide to have a holiday for a week in Canberra. Easy access to where ever we wanted to go. Clean place to relax, play family board games in down time. Close to shops for eating out or buying from supermarket. A short walk or drive away. Comfortable and not pokey.

My son’s 21st

We had a fantastic 3-night stay in this very spacious and comfortable 5-bedroom, 3-bathroom home. Located in a quiet neighbourhood, the house offered everything we needed and more. The large outdoor area with a BBQ, a medium-sized covered space, and four fire pits (with plenty of wood supplied!) was perfect for relaxing and entertaining. The double-glazed windows and doors meant that noise from the outside gathering couldn’t be heard inside, which was a great bonus. My husband kindly introduced himself to the neighbour to let him know we were having a small party of around 15 people, and he was friendly and very obliging.Inside, the house was clean, spacious and well-equipped, with plenty of kitchen tools and kitchenware, plus fresh linen and towels provided. The host was friendly, helpful, and easy to contact. It was an ideal space for a small get-together and made for a very enjoyable and stress-free stay. Highly recommended!
