We loved the property - very comfortable and extremely tidy. Great central heating (not that we needed it much but it was really effective), lovely rooms, comfortable lounge and excellent shower! Best of all it's easy walking distance to Lake Wendouree. We absolutely loved our stay - thank you!

Thank you, Sam. As you know, we’ve only recently started hosting, so reviews like yours really make all our effort worthwhile. We have a dedicated cleaner who’s extremely professional — and she truly loves what she does. Our goal is always to have the house cleaned to the same standard we would expect for ourselves. We put a lot of care into mopping, vacuuming, and wiping every area that needs attention. Yes, it’s such a bonus being so close to the lovely Lake Wendouree — it’s always a pleasant walk around its shores. It’s also just the same short distance to the main street and Ballarat’s shopping district. We’d love to host you again anytime! Warm regards, Harley and Mads
