Winter break
Our family had a lovely 3 night stay here. The house is amazing - clean, comfortable, well furnished, with modern yet cozy decor. The grounds are well maintained, walking around is very peaceful and you feel you are remote, yet the place is conveniently located near Canberra. Loved seeing kangaroos wander around nearby, and views of the mountains to the south. The owners are lovely. No complaints and would strongly recommend this as a "country cottage" style break from the city / work. We didnt want to leave, and will be back again!
