Best B&Bs in the Australian Capital Territory

Only a 15-minute drive from the heart of Canberra, Ginninderry Homestead is a traditionally styled B&B offering four queen-sized guest rooms with ensuites. Two of the rooms are “superior”, which means they have bigger lounge areas than the other two, plus French doors, high-quality linen and DVD players.

SOMETHING SPECIAL: The gardens are superb, with towering hedges making walled garden ‘rooms’ to explore. A garden guide is available to help you find your way around.

HOW MUCH? From $195 per room per couple per night. Superior rooms cost from $235 per night. High-season and weekend rates can reach $295 per night for a deluxe and $335 per night for a superior room. Note: there’s a two-night minimum stay.

WHILE YOU’RE HERE: Tour the Canberra District wine region; visit the Old Bus Depot Markets in Kingston, the Australian War Memorial, NGA or National Portrait Gallery.
