Independent in Cross Roads from AU$100

"Very comfortable room and great amenities. Everything a business or holiday traveller would need."

"We really enjoyed the deluxe studio for two. It felt as good as home with good pressured hot water available with a very comfy bed, which was hard to get out of. It was so luxe. Great tea and coffee supplied too, not the cheap brands, so we savoured the indulgent flavours in a country setting. What more could you ask for. "

"Great little property, perfect for our needs. Very clean and fresh. Excellent location. Great to be able to take our fur babies with us "

"A cosy home that truly feels like your own. Beautifully presented, exceptionally clean, and thoughtfully stocked with all the essentials for our stay — including towels, linen, and kitchen supplies. We’ll definitely stay here again next time we’re in town for the Ballarat Basketball Tournament!"

"We found our stay disappointing. I paid nearly 100 more to stay in Lenore because of the outdoor bath. We Couldn’t have a bath or a shower because there was not hot water. We had hot water coming from the kitchen sink but that’s all. We tried everything to get hot water but in the end it really ruined our night away. It was a quick getaway and it really wasn’t anything special, given it is advertised there should be hot water in the shower and bath. Not worth 380. "

"Just right, cosy and convenient!"

"Less than half a hour’s drive to Ararat. Cute cottage located right next to the cellar door. Comfy bed, hot shower, and provision of fresh coffee via a quality machine made for a pleasant stay. "

"A Dream Stay – Absolute Perfection! Wow! Where do we even begin? The Cosy Cottage in Ararat was hands-down one of the most beautiful, warm, and welcoming places we've ever stayed. From the moment we walked in, we were blown away by the stunning décor, elegant furnishings, and thoughtful little touches that made it feel like a luxurious home away from home. Every detail was perfect, from the beautifully styled rooms to the warm and cosy atmosphere that instantly made us relax. Our incredible host, Arpita, went above and beyond to make our stay truly special. She was so welcoming, kind, and attentive, ensuring everything was perfect from start to finish. Her hospitality made such a difference—it felt like we were staying with a friend rather than just booking accommodation. The location was unbeatable—just a short stroll to the main street and close to all of Ararat’s wonderful attractions. Whether we were exploring the town or simply enjoying a quiet evening in the cottage, every moment was pure bliss. Honestly, we didn’t want to leave! This was one of those rare stays where everything felt just right—beautiful, comfortable, and filled with warmth. If you're planning a trip to Ararat, do yourself a favor and stay here. It’s the best decision you’ll make. Thank you, Arpita, for making our trip unforgettable! We can’t wait to come back. Miah and family 🤗🤗 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Beyond 5 stars! "
