Great little space for a family
We stayed her with 2 elderly parents, a family of 5 and another adult. Great facilities, the park across the road was a hit. Super close to everything and well resourced

Very accomodating
Our stay at Balcatta Sanctuary was great, the hosts are very friendly and accomodating. The house was everything we needed and presented very clean. Loved the outside sanctuary! The location was quiet & private, very handy having the park/playground at the end of the street for the kids.
Would highly recommend this place!
The property was very clean and well maintained. The outdoor area was exceptional as were the number of rooms.

Balcatta sanctuary
The property was exactly what the add claimed it to be. (which is rare)
Very clean and tidy with a great outdoor BBQ area, and the street was nice and quiet.
The owners were nothing but a pleasure to deal with, even going as far as to cook myself and my 4 workmates dinner one night.
Can't say anything bad about our experience at all. Professional, polite and super comfortable.
Thanks again kelly and Peter. Would definitely re book in the future.
Cheers, Matt.

Balcatta sanctuary
The house was very tidy, well equipped with everything to feel at home. There were enough beds and the outdoor area was very nice. The house was a good short distance to a nice park in a nice quiet culdesac. Close to shops and not too far to train stations and the city. Would recommend to families.
