It was in a quiet, leafy, easy walking area, near to bus stop. A great superette was just 10 minutes walk away. The apartment was spacious, sunny and comfortable with beautiful decor. Full kitchen facilities were provided. It was a home away from home. Thank you to my hosts. Shirley

Delightful Getaway

This is our fourth stay at this delightful property - the hosts are marvellous and the setting and proximity to 'everything Canberra', is perfect. Thank you, Deb & Tom, for the extras...the fresh flowers of daphne and jonquils topped off what is always a marvellous place to stay.

Just right for our needs

We stayed for 5 nights in this very comfortable and convenient apartment. it is light and bright and very well fitted out with everything we could want. When there was a small problem with the coffee machine, the owner who lives next door fixed it obligingly and quickly. We are very happy with all aspects of this property. We have stayed here before and hope to stay again as we visit Canberra quite often

Ideal Canberra Location

We couldn’t have been happier with this house which had everything we needed and was very quick to heat up when we returned each evening. The location was also better than we had hoped for. We were able to comfortably walk into the city centre but there was also a bus a few minutes away. We will definitely be planning a return trip in the future.

Peaceful retreat

Thoroughly enjoyed our 8 day stay in this lovely apartment. Everything was well appointed and comfortable . Particularly enjoyed our early mornings soaking up the sunshine that pours thru the expanse of windows looking out onto the tree lined garden and street. Wonderful.

Home away from home

Had a great time in Turner, enjoyed the panoramic windows and all the beautiful artwork. The bed would be more comfy with an extra mattress topper. Cosy and warm overall with all the mod cons.

Excellent property

Lovely spacious home in quiet convenient location. Very comfortable lounge and dining area with great outlook, fully equipped kitchen, huge bed and great shower. Ticked all the boxes and most importantly of all was spotlessly clean. I will definitely stay here again in the future and will recommend to friends.

Lovely base to explore Canberra

This felt like a home away from home. We both loved the spacious, comfortable and well equipped small house. The bed was excellent. Thanks Debbie and Tom- the new topper was just the ticket. It was the perfect base to explore the very interesting places in Canberra. (Parliaments old and new, portrait gallery, war museum etc.)

Really excellent in every way

Private, spacious, spotless, recently renovated and thoughtfully equipped for maximum comfort and relaxation. Great location too - Set in a tranquil cottage garden, very close to the Canberra green belt and walking distance to the city centre. Easy walk to the botanic gardens and to the Braddon cafe strip. Can't wait to come back, great find!
