A truly magical experience, stepping back in time to be transported to another world! David and Jenny are such lovely hosts who take care with the details. The breakfast hosted by them is set with an ...amazing view and hosted with joy and care. We have discovered a hidden gem in both the location and what Wallaroo has to offer. Basing ourselves within walking distance to discover the local wineries and dining was just perfect. We cannot wait to return! While sharing the location with local wildlife and farming animals, apart from the occasional plane overhead it was just the sounds of nature and the environment where we could truly unwind and relax! Thanks David and Jenny for your hospitality and unique bed and breakfast!

We loved everything about our stay at David’s & Jenny’s! It was truly special to us as a young family in every way possible: from the unique experience of sleeping in the beautiful, comfy and spacious... red train carriage, to the morning frost or the beautiful peaceful surroundings (whilst still close to Canberra). What made it even more special was the hospitality of our hosts as well as their family! The morning breakfast was such a delicious luxury, and the views are amazing! It’s the little touches that meant the most to us; morning bird feeding or marshmallows on sticks especially made for us, to just name a few. Our three young boys and us won’t ever forget that you guys went above and beyond for us! We have been and will continue to highly recommend your B&B to anyone who is in for an unique adventure for sure! Thanks so much David & Jenny, we wish you all the best! Lots of love from us!

Wine Tasting At Surveyors Hill Vineyards

Surveyors Hill Vineyards is within easy walking distance from the Vintage Tram No. 590. They offer wine tasting and sales, as well as weekend lunches. During our tasting, we discovered that the bulbous hill sitting beside the rows of vines behind us was the namesake of the vineyard. The owners were kind enough to let us take the ‘scenic route’ to our next destination; through the rows of gnarly, off-season grapevines - I'd recommend asking if you can do the same!

Wine Tasting At Pankhurst Wines

Pankhurst Wines is a family-owned vineyard that was established in the eighties. Their friendly pup greeted us for our wine tasting, and then owner Christine had us sample a selection of their finest. My favourite? The tempranillo. They also offer cheese platters to accompany a tasting, if you book in advance.

Wine Tasting And Lunch At Brindabella Hills Winery

Brindabella Hills Winery and Vineyards overlooks the Murrumbidgee River, and out towards the mighty Brindabella mountain range. With an in-house cafe and the most amazing view, this is the perfect place to book in for lunch and a glass of wine. Of all the wineries in the region, this is the pick of the litter for an epic view while you sip your vino.

Great Coffee And Cake At Daughters At Hall Cafe

Daughters at Hall is a quaint cafe located on the main street of the historic town of Hall, on the outskirts of Canberra. Originally the town's general story, Daughters at Hall is set in a 126-year-old building and is a local watering hole for post-mountain bike coffees. I'd recommend trying the carrot cake - the serving was enormous and it tasted divine.

One Tree Hill Hike Along The Canberra Centenary Trail

One Tree Hill hike is an easy-to-access, short hike - a great way to stretch those legs after checking out all the fantastic wineries and cafes in the area. It should take you less than two hours to hike the return trail. The track is well-maintained but is also fairly heavily trafficked - the easy access and great views make this walk a Canberra favourite!
