Guest Reviews:

- "Perfect property for a family holiday in Ballarat. An enjoyable stay." - "Super clean and comfortable for groups or family and well located, would recommend for a long or short stay in Ballarat." - "Great property for our family during our basketball tournament weekend. Was close to all stadiums. Very comfortable and warm. Wouldn’t hesitate to book again." - "The location is great the house is cute and well set up but not a place to bring little babies. We brought our twin boys and the house was freezing cold, the split system died the second night we were there and the fire place was only fit to heat the main room. The owner left portable heaters and we had to pile everyone in the same room to keep warm. The doors dont close or jammed shut which left it hard to put kids asleep. One of the rooms smelled badly of dampness. The house would be ideal in nice weather but its cold, damp and drafty for this time of year. Loved ballarat but wouldnt stay there again."

Guest Reviews:

- "We really enjoyed our stay. The house was comfortable, renovated and very clean. Central heating worked well and kept the house toasty warm. Beds were comfortable, enough pillows, blankets and lovely plush doonas. Kitchen well equipped, though knives a bit blunt. Large table easily seated 6. Backyard was beautiful, plenty of seating and grass. Note, small dogs could possibly get out on left hand side of container and under rear fence. We had to block off that side of the container for our small labradoodle. Still had heaps of space to run."
