The place was lovely and roomy. Though there is a discrepancy as they advertised 1 bedroom with 2 queen beds but there is only 1.

Excellent option for a stay in Ballarat
I couldn’t believe my good fortune in having the opportunity to have a one night stay at Llanfyllin at relatively short notice with my partner, daughter & pet Otto in tow. The hospitality provided exceeded our expectations and the efforts by our hosts were second to none. The house is large & comfortable with many surprises inside & out. The location is close to the city centre and the neighbourhood is picturesque. Communication with our hosts was welcoming & professional. We look forward to having a return to Llanfyllin in the future for a longer visit.
