Beautiful property, had everything you would need for a break away. The host Helen was wonderful , very helpful and informative of the area. As an added bonus she had a few essentials waiting for us in the Kitchen and fridge. The property was immaculate
We had a lovely relaxing time at this apartment. The place is sunny with plenty of natural lights and full length windows overlooking the grass and the courtyard. It is beautifully furnished with country charm. We love how it is tucked away in a quiet and secured location yet close to some of the best places Canberra offers. It is well supplied exceeding our expectations.We enjoyed our time very much!
Fabulous hosts providing many little extras to make us feel welcome and at home.
Everything had been thought of.
The location was so peaceful and spacious. And walking through the vineyard to the lovely restaurant was a highlight.
What more could you ask for in this beautifully presented cottage. Host Helen had thought of every little detail to ensure a comforting stay. We can't wait to visit again. Highly recommending!!
Everything was perfect,as described and shown on pictures.Beautifully decorated and furnished unit where I felt totaly relaxed. The kitchen was well equipped,and all necessary cleaning products provided. The Host, Helen, is a top owner, who is there to help with everything.The unit is away from the centre of Canberra, in the middle of a winery,where you can feel relaxed,but at the same time close to the city.Helen, thank you very much for a lovely stay, it was exceptional.
Highly recommended quality accommodation with easy access to Canberra's sights. Would stay again. Quiet location, comfortable bed, great kitchen. Helen is very friendly and goes above and beyond with breakfast provisions and other treats. A great host.

A fantastic host with an incredible property. Will definitely be back for future trips to Canberra.
What a beautifully styled, luxurious, generous and comfortable apartment. Set amongst the vines, it’s like a country getaway in the city. We really appreciated the bonus touches such as wine, cheese, & breakfast provisions too.
From the minute we arrived to the end of our stay it was nothing but amazing and outstanding. Our host Helen was super special as was our accomadation. Loved our time in this very beautiful land ACT.
Great place. The vineyard surroundings are lovely. A little pocket of countryside in the suburbs of Canberra. The apartment had everything we wanted. Very cosy and stylish. Helen the host was very helpful and easy to communicate with.
This apartment is one of the best we’ve stayed in. We are both 80 and wanted a comfortable place to stay for a visit to a family member who is unwell. Everything in the apartment was of the highest quality and Helen was most helpful to us. We appreciated the heating being switched on before arrival and the provisions she gave us.
My family loved going back here after long days out exploring the kid friendly places nearby and the snowy mountains. Place is so warm and inviting I was able to catch up on my much needed zzz's after a busy work week. Complimentary food and drink is a plus too. Would love to get back to it and just stay in for a couple of days walking around the place.
What a gem! We were so pleased to have the opportunity to stay in this property. It is luxuriously appointed and wonderfully cosy. A perfectly placed base for exploring many of Canberra's attractions. Thank you for making our stay so welcoming.
We really enjoyed staying at this Pialligo apartment. Terry and Helen were warm and had a number of little welcoming surprises for us. We were really thankful the apartment had good heating, as it was below zero two nights we stayed. The kitchen facilities, bedroom and lounge area were supurb. higly recommend.
