A fun weekend in Canberra with 10 uni friends. The family style house suited us with enough beds, dining and lounge areas to spend time together. I recommend it for large groups who want a relaxed environment. The owners were generous with an early check-in and late checkout that accommodated our group who had driven from all over NSW and Victoria.

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!

Great house for large groups

We needed a larger property in Canberra at short notice to accommodate family members coming together from around the country and overseas. The Watson property is in a quiet neighborhood with shops and a nice cafe a short walk away. The property can house a lot of guests and the self contained separate flat is a nice bonus providing a separate space for two people. The property has a great back yard, a well equipped kitchen and lots of different seating areas. Overall the Watson property was very comfortable and perfect for our group.
