Spacious & cozy 2 bedroom home on Eureka

MeaganRating, 5 stars3 days ago

We had a wonderful stay at Selena’s home! The space was warm and cozy - especially with the heater. We really enjoyed the kitchen space, which made it easy to cook dinner and spend quality time together. The beds were super comfortable, and our toddler loved having access to the Portacot and high chair. He especially enjoyed discovering the cupboard full of children’s toys. It was a big hit! Thanks for a lovely stay!

We chose Rosie’s cottage mainly for the location being adjacent to Union Jack Reserve. It was great to be able to walk from the cottage into the reserve, which we really enjoyed. The area was very quiet and peaceful.

Self Contained - Fantastic Location

AnthonyRating, 5 stars1 week ago

We had a lovely two-night stay at Kurt and Nanette’s place in Golden Point, Ballarat. Kurt greeted us on arrival and was warm and welcoming, which set the tone for a great stay. The heater had been turned on beforehand, making the space feel cozy and comfortable on a chilly Ballarat afternoon. The bed was very comfortable, and we truly appreciated all the thoughtful touches. There was a generous selection of treats provided, everything we needed for a relaxed and enjoyable visit. The space was spotlessly clean, well-appointed, and perfect for a short getaway. We would highly recommend it and would be very happy to stay again.

Studio Art on Duke

MichaelaRating, 5 stars4 weeks ago

Enjoyed 2 nights in the Studio Apartment. In the heart of Daylesford, easy to walk to town. The apartment was super clean & had everything we needed. The only very slight con is the bathroom is quite small and the water from the shower gets everywhere. But everything was very clean and we would stay here again!
