Highly recommended. It was the perfect stay for us as a couple with one dog. Overall, clean and very comfortable. For the bathroom, we were provided thick bath towels, personal care products, and the kitchen had top-brand-name appliances. We liked that the place had plenty of hooks and great storage spaces. The high fence and low-maintenance garden were great for our dog. The host Maryanne was friendly and very responsive to our requests or questions. Nice fresh breakfast provided on the first morning. It is in a quiet suburb with a lovely pub, shops, and a off leash dog reserve within short walking distance. Can drive to popular Canberra locations within 10-20 minutes.

My husband and I had a comfortable, relaxing stay at Lyttle Cook B&B with our dog. The place looked exactly as the photos and was neat as a pin. It was very easy to get around Canberra via car too. I can highly recommend Maryanne's place.
