Great house, service and location.
The accomodation was spacious, clean and well equipped. The property manager was amazing, provided detailed instructions and any queries were answered in a quick and efficient manner. Location was great, only a five minute drive from the shops and very close to many other local attractions. Highly recommend.

Great house for a group
Very deceptive from the front but big house with plenty of room for our group of 8 adults. 3 toilets were much appreciated. Short drive to the main shopping area and pubs and restaurants. Host was very helpful. Would definately stay again

Peaceful area
Accommodation was clean and well equipped to cook our Christmas lunch. A very enjoyable stay as we were looking for solitude and it's a quiet area. Only discovered the nearby wonderful IGA after we had most of our groceries. Highly recommend accommodation & IGA. Thanks Tom!

Fabulous family weekend away
Thank you for sharing your home so we were able to have a family catch up. Enough bedrooms to accommodate us all and a wonderful home away from home. Perfect location for visiting Ballarat and Sovereign Hill. We all thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Thank you

Lovely quiet stay close to town
Great property in a good location. Easy access to Ballarat attractions with supermarkets close by also. Lovely quiet space with plenty of bedrooms for everyone to have their own space before gathering in the open plan kitchen/dining/living room. The backyard is small, but still large enough and safe for the furry family members. We would definitely stay again.
