Jenny's place was perfect for our stay in Canberra. The accomodation was very cozy, in a nice quiet street and has everything we needed for our stay. Jenny was great to communicate with and the rooms was neat clean and tidy. Would happily stay again next time we visited Canberra.

Thank you for your kind review and goodies in the fridge. I loved having you stay.
Lovely clean, comfortable & cozy country style cottage in a peaceful garden setting & in a quiet and pretty pocket of the neighbourhood and surrounds. It felt like "Home" staying there. Had everything we needed & Jenny the Host was so kind & helpful. As an added bonus - just a short walk in the neighbourhood is a reserve with a countryside landscape & mountain views and gentle walking tracks - so beautiful. It's a nice central location not too far from the city & it's surrounding attractions but just the right distance away to feel like you are on a relaxing holdiay.
Agapanta was a very comfortable cottage with all the comforts of home. Kitchen was well equipped, beds were comfortable and the cottage was clean. Distance from the City was easily travelled via the excellent road system. A bit more difficult if solely using public transport. A very pleasant and enjoyable place to stay.
Hubby and I enjoyed a very peaceful stay at Agapantha Cottage - an older but clean space, lovely atmosphere, nicely decorated, beautiful garden with birdsong and a very responsive Host. Would book again.
Lovely place to stay, cosy cottage, the garden is charming, excellent communication with the host, host was so helpful when we left keys inside locked house. We were very happy with our stay. Definitely would book again.
Agapantha Cottage was a lovely place for me and my 9 year old son to stay for a couple of nights during the school holidays. It is only a 15min drive to the city where all the museums are, which is what we came to see. The cottage was clean, cosy with all the lovely antique furniture, the wifi, netflix and aircon came in handy during the heatwave, the kitchen was easy to cook in, and the garden is beautiful. We'd definitely like to stay there again and would highly recommend it to others.
