A relaxing place to stay
Ravinder’s place was just the right spot for our visit to Canberra. We were a family group of 6 adults and one dog and the house suited perfectly. Close to cafes and shops and parks for the dog. It was also close to two different bus routes and conveniently located to travel into the city. We appreciated the fully secured back yard and covered parking area. We’d have no hesitation staying here again.

A place for extended family to stay.
The property was well presented with spacious bedrooms and a well equipped kitchen. The bathroom could have done with some extra hooks to hang towels for the 7 people we had staying. It was in walking distance to the Mint and a lovely place to stay.

Clean home with good bedroom accommodation
We found it hard to find the right bed configuration and this home had three king/queen/dble beds along with the two singles so it fitted our group. Communication with the owner was really great, fast replies, suggestions for restaurants and activities etc. The house was clean and had everything required for a stay. We could walk across the parking area opposite to a fab cafe and also had a choice of restuarants for dinners.

Comfortable, warm well equipped home. Could do with a coat/ hat stand near the front door to hang things once you step inside and a few more coat hangers in the main bedroom. Otherwise, a delightfully presented place to stay.

Great winter break
We had a lovely long weekend winter break with our two families and our dogs. Great, modern house with plenty of room for everyone and lots of comforts - central heating, extra blankets, books & games, Netflix and enclosed yard. Location was conveniently a close drive to everything we needed or wanted to see in Canberra. Would definitely recommend.
