Guest Reviews

• Rodney Preston (10/5): - Lovely quiet property off the road and very safe for our dogs as well. Rain
• Ryan (10/5): - Neat & tidy. Has everything you need. Was great 👍
• Susan (9/5): -
• Debra (9/5): Lovely and homely - It was easy to find and it was so nice inside, it was pet friendly as well which is our main reason for using the home. We would stay there again on our next trip away. It has a really feel about it when you go inside. Nice bottle of wine and some lovely welcoming flowers very sweet indeed.
• Kellie (8/5): -
• Donna (7/5): - The drive in didn’t seem inviting.
• Jade (10/5): -
• Zoe (10/5): -
• Judy (8/5): Nice home, lovely host. - Great communication from the host. Nice home
• Paula (8/5): Perfect stop over place with pets. We would definitely stay again. - It was clean, had a safe garden for the dog. The host kept in regular contact. We had trouble getting the tv to work and trouble getting the heater to work.
• Peter (8/5): - The small house was perfect for our golfing trip with privacy, quiet environment and clean, modern facilities. Our dealings with the owner were simple and concise and the location was within easy drive to the city centre. The shower-over-bath was excellent and the bottle of wine was a nice touch. We lost signal on the tv a couple of times but it wasn't too much of a hassle as we spent most of our time away from the house.
• Jackie (8/5): Lovely small clean modern property but no views of beautiful Ballarat. - Lovely home, modern & clean. Host kept us informed but 8 am text on the Sunday, was not appropriate. Roller door to enter was broken and very hard to open. Cheap can opener took me 15 minutes to open dog can food. Spikey plants not appropriate on small property.
• mark (10/5): Comfortable,cosy,clean -

• Nathan (9/5): -
• Henry (10/5): - Convenient location, clean and cozy, considerate host, highly recommended.
• Lauren (10/5): - We would highly recommend this accommodation. We stayed with our 2 children and dog just before Christmas and it was perfect for our 3 night stay. The accommodation is well looked and we appreciated the additional touches from the hosts to make the stay enjoyable.
• And (5/5): -
• CM (4/5): -
• Kerrie (8/5): -
• Kim (8/5): - For us this was the perfect little hideaway location. Check in was super easy, and we had everything we needed at the house. Our little dog enjoyed it as much as we did! It definitely could of been a bit cleaner but apart from that it was great.
• Kathryn (7/5): It was overall great for what we needed for our family (2 adults & 2 year old). Would recommend to stay here, even w - Overall was a great little place to stay! Perfect size for what we needed & had everything that we needed as well! Wasn’t too far from town square & as the name suggests was a little cute hideaway. The place was not super clean. Bathroom felt like it wasn’t cleaned & overall feel of the house was that it needed to be cleaned a bit more. TV & split system need replacement but were usable
• Rebecca (9/5): - Emily was amazing to deal with. There were some slight hiccups with things, and she worked hard to get them rectified while also keeping me updated.
• Emma (10/5): Cozy getaway - It really was a little hide away. Cozy, private and quiet. Great central location. We will definitely be back again
• Evelyn (8/5): Very comfortable, great for a family. - Great set up, great for a family. Very comfortable beds. Nothing
• Adrian (10/5): - Everything that you needed was supplied and if you needed anything, it was just a phone call away. nothing
• Alyson (8/5): Will definitely book to stay here again - Location good
• Sally (10/5): Absolutely perfect and gorgeous cottage to stay in -
• Jyothsna (10/5): -
• Kate (5/5): okay. - The host kept sending me sms's throughout the stay which I did not need. The host sent me a sms at 0800 on day of check out which woke me up to ask if I leave early to let them know so they can have the cleaners come early. Well NO I have paid up until 10am. Too intrusive. One of the couches was broken so could not sit on the couch. The home was too cluttered with too many couch pillows and blankets everywhere. The beds were comfortable, definitely smaller than it appears on the website.
• Selina (8/5): Good - Close to central area …but didn’t realize the house was hiding around automotive repair factory. It took a while for us to find the gate. Pushing up the roller garage gate is another big challenge..especially under windy and raining weather
• Greg (9/5): - Great little house perfect for the family to enjoy the attractions of Ballarat. The home is quite well appointed and comfortable. The location looks a bit rough, but it was absolutely fine once you entered the property.
• Sarah-anne (7/5): Good -
• Rebecca (8/5): Home away from home - Wonderful host! Emily was so friendly and helpful. Great space for a family and for dogs, nice and secure and private and everything you need is supplied! Electric blankets on the beds were amazing! Single beds were unstable and rolled around the room anytime you moved unfortunately and the car yard was rather noisy quite early in the morning, but very minor things, would definitely stay again
• Zoran (9/5): A place with all the comfort features at a affordable price - Very clean , modern , very affordable
• Mark (10/5): Exceptional -
• Chantelle (9/5): Cosy family getaway with everything you need. - Cosy and modern. Had everything we needed. Will definitely be returning and recommending to anyone that plans on staying in Ballarat. Shutters in bedrooms are very temperamental. Would look at installing block outs. Towels smelt like cigarettes. TV area/set top box could be improved for safety and convenience.
• Mark (10/5): Exceptional -
• Michael (8/5): A nice well appointed home away from home. - Neat, well maintained and convenient amenities. Good central location. Very cosy. Nothing to speak of. It suited our purpose well.
• Michelle (10/5): Relaxing home away from home - Home away from home. Could have pets. N/A
• Naomi (10/5): Exceptional - Everything
• Lynda (9/5): All the comforts of home. - Beautiful House, comfy, quiet location, easy to get in and out. Under cover area out back so shoes could be left outside without getting wet
• Patrick (8/5): Very good - Plenty of room outside for the dog Maybe a lower table & dining chairs would have been better than the higher table
• Danielle (7/5): Good -
• Park (7/5): Family trip to Ballarat - Location was good to go anywhere with just 5-10min drive. My dog loved backyard to play. Cleaning needs to be improved. Hidden space is so dusty , dirty. Specially under the rug in dining area is extremely dirty. Shower in bath tub isn't convenient. Also Bath room sink is actually laundry sink so bit awkward
• Sonia (7/5): The place was good - The tv didn’t work so we couldn’t watch net flix or normal tv
• Vanessa (7/5): A lovely little place but in an unfortunate area. - Well equipped Kitchen, comfortable beds, seperate toilet, provided face washers, clean. The location. The view and surrounds. The constant barking dog next door overnight and during the day. People doing burn outs on the gravel road out the front at 5:30am. Not much toilet paper for 4 guests.
• Cait (10/5): Exceptional - A beautiful spot, close to everywhere we needed to get to. Clean, tidy, perfect for our family of 4 for a few days.
• Klaire (9/5): Super cosy, welcoming and clean property, with everything needed for a comfortable family stay. - Great communication by the hosts. It was lovely to have very explicit instructions on how to find the property and how to enter. We were delighted to find a very clean and cosy little abode on arrival, with some lovely personalised touches. The place had personality - which was a plus! We were planning to use the outdoor fenced yard for a dog (as this is pet-friendly by design), but didn't end up bringing him, but this space was great to expand out into if needed. We value a good hot shower with decent pressure, and this property delivered. The bath was also a treat! Great to have full laundry facilities on offer too. If travelling to Ballarat again, we'd certainly look to book this property. Nothing stands out as being an issue. it was great.
• Belinda (10/5): Great little stay, with everything you need - Great location, hosts were friendly and easy to contact if required. Welcome note and friendly reminders were also great. Outdoor area was well maintained and suitable for dogs. Had everything we needed, would definitely stay again. A tea towel would've been handy to help clean up.
• Natani (10/5): Cute and comfortable - We loved the location and the comfy bed. The owner made sure we had everything we needed and it was very clean.
• Melanie (8/5): Very good -
• Katelyn (8/5): We will stay again. - Host was prompt. Notes everywhere to keep us informed. 6-10min drive to everywhere in town. A hidden gem. Maybe block out curtains to stop that light coming in so early.
• Jules (8/5): Very good - Nice open plan living.
• Sharon (8/5): Very good -
• Kerry (9/5): Superb -
• Kristy (10/5): Exceptional -
• Cavelle (9/5): Superb - Very clean and comfortable. Great for our dogs they were safe and had an enjoyable time. The location was quite industrial and on a gravel road, which we weren't expecting so close to town.
• Carol (9/5): Host extremely responsive and accommodating - Felt secure being able to dive the car into property and close the roller door Grass could have been trimmed a little more to make it easier for small dog to use.

Owners easy to communicate with and attentive. Comfortable beds. Quiet despite its location. Would be great to bring a dog. Great shower head! Easy to clean. Cozy. Bottle of wine on arrival with welcome message was lovely. Couches and arm chairs very low which is tricky for us tall people. No dining table, but island bench seating. Limited space so understandable. No rails on staircase to front and back door.
