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!
