At a gala event held last Friday 1 March at the beautiful Cataract Gorge near Launceston, Tasmania, YMCA Canberra Leumeah Lodge was awarded a Bronze in the Standard Accommodation category of the 2018 Qantas Australian Tourism Awards.

This is very first time, a YMCA business in Australia has achieved this level of acknowledgement of a national tourism award and is wonderful recognition for all the hard work, dedication and commitment to service by all the team.

Leumeah Lodge is a purpose-built accommodation facility located within the historic tourism precinct of Gold Creek Village in the National Capital. Less than 3 years old, the beautifully appointed lodge offers visitors affordable queen-sized accommodation suites, family rooms, apartments and group dormitories.

Recognising and promoting excellence in tourism, the Qantas Australian Tourism Awards are the tourism industry’s peak awards.
