Food Scene

Beautiful selection of freshly cooked Chinese food, including the dumplings they make each day on the premises. It's very busy, so bookings are essential, however takeaway is also available for that last minute craving.

Have some fun playing a board game while you munch on the wood fired pizza. Ideal for couples or families, looking for some fun. It can get busy on quiz nights, so might be worth popping by during the day to make sure you reserve a table.

The Golden Arches for when you're craving. There's a food court in the basement of the Canberra Centre for cheap and cheerful dining options. It's not open late, as is within the shopping centre, but there's a 24 hour option a few hundred meters away near the bus depot.

Sightseeing

A must see view of Canberra. If you have kids, there's a great free play park for them to climb around in. There's an onsite coffee shop, with a yummy selection of cakes and nibbles, which you can consume gazing out over Canberra. There's also a bonsai centre you can wander through and be astounded at the intricacy of some of the exhibits.

Parks & Nature

It's a cliche, but still gorgeous, and walking distance from the apartment. Take a stroll around the lake. See if you can find the bamboo maze (hint....it's near Parkes Place) and, for the kids, do your best to take them to the castle playground as the tunnels are great fun!

Easy driving distance, accessible most of the year round with no snow chains. Book online to avoid disappointment.

BBQs available onsite too.

Essentials

Open late for your convenience, it has everything you need. Keep in mind that Canberra has the "no bag" rule, so you'll need to take one along with you, or be prepared to have to pay for one at the store (15 cents).
