Our second visit, have stayed in both front and back houses - both very clean, well equipped kitchen, comfortable beds, hot showers. definitely a great location with ample parking on site. We are not keen on air conditioning so a fan would have been appreciated. Definitely recommend staying in either house.

Great location and great accommodation

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in the Braddon Sanctuary. The villa unit is well equipped, spacious and comfortable with great off street parking. The location is excellent, just a short walk to the vibrant Lonsdale St or to Civic and even walking distance to the War Memorial. William is a great host, easily contactable and very responsive. This was our second visit and we’ll definately stay there again.

William made us feel right at home. The unit was thoughtfully prepared, the welcoming flowers were beautiful. The kitchen facilities were well stocked with all the appliances you would need during your stay for preparing meals. The extra touches of eggs , butter, bread and the selection of teas and coffees was greatly appreciated. The unit is spacious, centrally situated and has a lockable garage. It was an ideal location for daily trips doing the tourist sites of Canberra, most within a 15 minute drive. We would highly recommend Braddon Central Sanctuary.

The property was even better than the listing showed. Owners were wonderful to deal with and very accommodating. The little touches made the stay great and the kids (9 & 12) loved it too. Have no hesitation in recommending this property to anyone looking for somewhere nice, and well located, in Canberra.

We found exactly what we needed for our 4 day visit to the capital - it was 9min from anywhere. Super clean and conveniently located to even walk to the local restaurant scene. Comms where excellent and thorough - all was found as discussed ahead of stay. We shall be back - hopefully soon!
