A mere 20 minutes from the heart of Canberra, Ginninderry is a fairytale-esque escape that will have you in the romantic mindset right from your arrival. The homestead itself offers a tranquil country retreat with four queen ensuite rooms, a formal lounge, a breakfast room, and an upstairs sitting area.
