Had a great time and slept well in comfy beds. Loved sitting in the loungeroom sofas too. Close to the best I've ever sat in. We will be back again if you will have us. Thank You.

We loved our stay here! It was a great location in a quiet street with plenty of parking. It was a very well presented, clean and tidy home. Sarah made everything so easy. She was very responsive messages from when we booked until we checked out. Thanks Sarah for the extra special touches :)

Quiet in Kensington

The area is amazingly quiet. Everything is very handy -- we walked to dinner on racecourse red, walked to Flemington racecourse, and walked barely 5 minutes to an amazing cafe for breakfast. The townhouse is very comfortable.
