À propos de cet hĂ©bergement

Agapantha Cottage - Country in the City, original artwork, wkly/mthly discounts

Agapantha Cottage is set in a shared garden that also has vegetables, fruit trees (orange, lemon, lime, apricot, cherry, fig, kiwi, plum, olive and apple) and ponds. There are (over 2000) agapantha flower heads that line the driveway and garden beds in summer.

Vintage furniture has been revamped with original art works on the walls. The Cottage is self contained with a full working kitchen including microwave, oven, sandwich maker, toaster, wok, full fridge/ freezer, coffee pod machine. There is a washing machine, clothes rack and split aircon unit as well. Great for family, writers and artists. Wifi and power included.
A comfortable queen bed and a single rollaway bed (on request and set up as needed in the living area) are available.
Strictly no parking inside the driveway gate as the drive is too narrow. Unload in front of gate if necessary, then park in bays or on the street, which only has local traffic.
A local shopping centre is nearby with 2 restaurants, fish/chip shop, massage and Pilates shops, chemist, butcher, grocer, newsagent and petrol station.

Canberra has many museums, galleries, parks (with gas bbqs), bushwalking trails, bike paths, lake activities (kayaking, sailing, boat touring, swimming, boat peddling), amazing childrens playgrounds including road safety for bikes, the arboretum with banksia pods (see my photo). There are great restaurants nearby at the Belconnen Lakeside. Markets are also a feature notably Kingston Markets on every Sunday, Hall Market on 1st Sunday of the month and close to the Cottage, the Jamieson Market also on Sundays.

Canberra is also known as the garden city or bush capital. The famous Floriade festival of bulbs and gardens at the Lake Burley Griffen and the private Tulip Top Gardens, held in Spring, is highly recommended.

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.

The cottage itself is very lovely! It was clean and the kitchen was equipped with everything we needed. The listing could be updated to note that this a shared housing block where you walk past the main house including deck and front door entrance down a driveway to a granny flat style cottage. While it was private, we could hear the people in the main house and felt the need to keep the curtains drawn the whole time to ensure privacy. All windows opened into the driveway or backyard of the main house.

This is a quaint little cottage next to the owner’s house with a pretty separate garden for guest use. We enjoyed having breakfast outside. The cottage is very well equipped. It was easy to communicate with the owner and it was a short drive (15 mins) into the centre of Canberra.

Quaint Cottage

We were actually out and about a lot, so we were really only here to sleep, but it was a really cute space. It was very secluded and surrounded by nature. We stayed during late fall, so it got a bit chilly at night, and I wish I had packed an extra layer. The throw blanket on the couch and the heated blankets on the bed were very much appreciated!

The space itself was warm and inviting, and we appreciated extras like the long-life milk provided on arrival. However, future guests should know that the cottage is a converted garage on the same property as a larger main house. The entrance, parking area, and front lawn are shared with the main house. During our stay, we noticed there were other people in the main house (we’re not sure if they were other guests or the host’s family), so we weren’t as completely secluded as we initially thought we’d be. This setup wasn’t as private as expected and it did come as a surprise because the listing hadn’t mentioned the shared property aspect explicitly. This information was not communicated clearly in the listing. This is important information for us and future guests to have upfront so we can make an informed decision. Polite suggestions for improvements. A couple of small changes could make the stay even better. For instance, the bathroom towel hooks are placed below waist height right beside the sink, which makes them impractical for hanging clean towels or clothes—items hung there can get wet or remain out of reach from the shower. It would also be helpful to have coasters and table mats to protect the furniture, and to update some of the worn cooking utensils and pans in the kitchen. Overall, we had a pleasant stay, and with these minor tweaks, the cottage would be even better.

À propos de l’hîte

HÎte : Jenny stevens

Image de profil de l’hîte
I love travelling and meeting new people. My four children have grown up and have families of their own. I enjoy making sculptures in stone, wood, paper, metal and even gingerbread. Watercolours and acrylics are another medium I explore. Quilt making was my first adventure. I live in the architect designed main house adjacent to the Cottage. Another separate guest apartment is part of that house and could also be available or occupied.

Voici pourquoi l’hĂŽte a choisi cet hĂ©bergement

The property was bought in 1994 after having lived in Boston and moving from place to place. Our children and myself grew up in Canberra, my parents lived here for 60 years. I have seen Canberra grow from a small country town to a city with the benefits of both. Lakes, art galleries, restaurants, theatres and nature reserves along with easy traffic and bike paths make it very liveable .

Voici ce qui rend cet hébergement unique

From the cottage, there is 5 minutes walk to a nature reserve (adjacent to a working farm) where kangaroos can be seen (at dusk or early morning) with views from the hill overlooking Canberra. A very long slide and playground is at the back of the cottage accessed by a laneway. It is part of the primary school but can be enjoyed out of school hours. There are many attractions close by, especially for families - an abboretum with awesome playground (see photo) and bonsai collection, Cockington Green with miniature houses and train, dinosaur museum and a zoo. The cottage is close to Belconnen Lake with 6 km walk and bbq facilities, art gallery and mall. A local shopping centre has everything you may need, including Woolworths, three restaurants, hairdresser, Thai massage, Pilates studio, groceries, petrol station, pharmacy and KFC.
