Charming and comfortable cottage, waking distance to the center of Ballarat and easily accessible to Ballarat’s many attractions. We loved the comfy beds, and the stunning bathtub was great to unwind in after a long day. The internet was fast and reliable, so I could work as well as vacation. The washer and dryer were very convenient, and the pink decor was cute without being overdone. Would stay again.

Great location to town but on corner too close to the road. Block out blinds required for two front windows to block out car headlights flash etc. security door to front and back required. we had a pleasant stay.

Amazing Cottage!

This cottage was so amazing - everything was so new and comfortable. The beds and pillows were so soft it was like sleeping on clouds! The appliances and bathroom were so new - hair appliances were of a good brand! Bree even supplied us with good butter, jam, milk, bread and fruits and avocados! Everything you need for a breakfast/making meals is there! Absolutely will be back - location is also very close 10mins walk to Ballarat Central!
