It a cute little cottage with 3 bedrooms one bathroom. It has an excellent walk-in shower. Easy to use washing machine and dryer. Very grateful for the milk, tea and coffee, also had glad wrap and foil. Beds were comfortable and blackout blinds excellent. Close to town could walk about a kilometre to town proper. Sovereign Hill also very close by. Lounge a little tight for 6 people but adequate. The road is quiet but deep gutter as it can rain and they become little steams but nothing to be concerned about.

Good location

Good little house if staying for short term. Great central location. Bedrooms comfortable. Kitchen well equiped. Plenty of dining space and large comfortable couch in lounge.Front has quite high steps and parking is beside the old cobble stone gutters found throughout Ballarat, so something to consider if travelling with disabled or elderly. Bathroom shower isn’t very strong at all and whilst ok for our two night stay, would have driven me nuts along with hand basin in the bathroom, which really needs fixing. Hooks in the bathroom to hang up clothes whilst showering would be awesome too.Overall very happy with our stay- just could do with some tweaks.
