I am available mostly through Airbnb messaging but I give privacy to my guests. If there is an urgent issue, you can always call me.

I have been living in Canberra for quite some time now and can help you navigate your way around the local area if you need me. I can also provide you with tips on the best places to go for food or just to have fun!

Barton is a suburb full of government departments. It has a lot of great lunch venues and would be considered a bit posh' by most Canberrans. If you're after an evening venue you can stroll down to Kingston (less than 10 minutes). Also, consider going for an early morning run around the lake.

Many bus services run through Barton - ACT Gov transport website or catch a taxi or UBER.

SECURITY REMINDER:
Please remember not to tailgate into the carpark or let others follow you into the building and ensure doors are closed behind you. If you ever find you have had items stolen or damage to your vehicle/property please contact the police and advise us of the police report number, we will then be able to assist the police with available CCTV footage.

Please note, theft of personal belongings can be claimed through your content’s insurance and damage to your vehicle can be claimed through your vehicle insurance. If your insurance requires footage, advise them to contact us and we can pass this on directly to them.

2. I have a STRICT "No Pets Policy" and "No Smoking Policy". These are applicable inside and outside of the property. Any breach will result in a fine of $400 plus any additional fees for specialised cleaning.

3. The cleaning fee covers the regular cleaning and linens in the property. As this is not a hotel, please try to leave the place as tidy as possible. If the property is extra messy when you leave, an extra cleaning fee will be requested (minimum of $50).

4. Please be sure you understand our cancellation policies. You can find our current policy on our Airbnb listing.

5. Only those persons who made the reservation may stay at our property. If you're a business or government agency booking for other people, please contact us in advance to ensure access details are made clear.

8. I list my property as not suitable for kids or infants as it is not child-proofed and we don't have baby amenities (i.e. high chair, cot). However, if the kids will be under adult supervision at all times, booking with children is no problem.
