Guest Reviews

- Kelly (10/5): Spacious little cottage great for a family stay - Lovely host and very spacious accommodation which is a nice change from a hotel room. Quiet area and close to town. Very clean, warm and cosy decor. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

- Christian (10/5): We will be back - Loved it, best service around and beautiful owners. We will be back.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Very nice place. Great communication from management. Highly recommended
- Verified traveler (10/5): - This was an amazing stay at Ballarat Tranquility Cottages.Decor was outstanding,impeccable in cleanliness, charming & very relaxing.Lovely garden surrounds & everything you could wish for inside.Friendly owner who made time for a relaxing massage after a busy days travel.We recommend to everyone traveling to Ballarat to stay here,as this is truly is one of the best B & Bs we have ever stayed in & look forward to our next visit.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this lovely cottage. Breakfast provided, massage chair, aviary, Netflix. A lot of space for our family of 6. A very clean house, no dust in sight! Would highly recommend staying here :-)
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Was very welcoming, Fresh bread cooking in bread maker. Both had delightful sleeps. Plenty of room , very relaxing
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Quaint older style lace. Extremely quiet n well maintained
- Mary (10/5): A warm and cosy “Gingerbread” house - This was just the best find ever. Ornately decorated (not the steal and glass look), with gas fire, comfy chairs, full kitchen, courtyard with BBQ and lots of towels on the beds. WiF and Netflix included.
The owner left us a continental breakfast for the first morning, but best of all was the smell of fresh baked bread as we opened the door. Yes a full loaf was sitting in the breadmaker and butter in the fridge. Would not bother booking anywhere else.
- Carrus (8/5): - Lovely to walk into with the smell of fresh bread cooking and the place was warm. A very cosy retreat in a quiet part of Ballarat. Breakfast left a lot to be desired. Don’t get me wrong, toast, muffins, eggs, apple juice, were supplied but I don’t drink apple juice. I like to have cereal and orange juice with toast. I could not get water to boil on the hot plates on the microwave oven to cook the eggs, hence I had a very light breakfast. I did feel the grouting in the shower needed a clean. It was still a lovely place to stay and I felt very secure.
- Mark (8/5): Relaxing stay - Jenny was a good host , provided many options for breakfast, home made bread, crumpets, cereal, place was clean and inviting although we weren't able to access Netflix. Massage chair was relaxing in the lounge room with the comfort of a fireplace.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - The property is wonderfully furnished, located in a beautiful and quiet area and still close to amenities.
- Geoffrey (10/5): - It was a charming cottage. For the same price as a 'regular' motel room I get space, outdoor areas, full kitchen and regularly furnished house. It has two bedrooms so it would sleep two couples of a family quite readily.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Loved this place so peaceful amazing hosts the fresh bread in the bread maker was such a nice touch. Definitely will be back soon
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Fabulous would recommend, clean, quiet and fantastic communication

- Verified traveler (8/5): All you need to relax - Our son loved the spa/shower. Only a few minutes to the Ballarat Centre, right opposite a georgious park.
- Debbie (10/5): - Beautiful ambiance and very lovely hosts. The heater and lights were on for us and a fresh warm loaf of bread in the bread maker! The aqua massage is a must for all visitors. Definitely the place to stay when visiting Ballarat.
- Lauren (8/5): Lovely personal touches - It was a lovely surprise to be welcomed with freshly baked bread. Very clean and comfortable and vintage charm.
- Pamela (10/5): A Gem. - Very comfortable unit, with ample parking. Breakfast provided was substantial, with bread maker providing fresh bread. Nice touch. A very comfortable stay.

- rachel (8/5): nice little home away from home - very comfortable stay ,feels like home with a homely feel.really enjoyed the massage chair ,it was a real hit with all the family as well as the spa ,beds were very comfy .
- Verified traveler (6/5): Old world charm but a bit dated - We were happy to stay there but the massage chair with its large "feet" took up too much room in the lounge and the layout of the single living space meant each section of it was a bit "crowded"
- Verified traveler (10/5): Retro and loved it! - It was freezing cold and could have picked a better place! Gas fire, massage chair, spa and sauna.. highly recommend.. this place is actually really unique and pretty cool!
- Edwin (10/5): Very relaxed and quiet opposite good parkland - We enjoyed our stay at tranquility and found the location very relaxing and peaceful. Being opposite Vic Park provided us with many hours of walking and Lake Wendoree is also very easy walking distance. Owner, Jennifer, was easily accessible if required..not that we needed to. Well recommended for relaxed quiet get away
- Deborah (10/5): Beautiful quite relaxing Place. - We where in a beautiful Cottage with Red Velvet furniture, a massage chair in the lounge room, very good massage too. Then we had a sauna and spa in our room as well as a vibrating bed in the master bedroom It was a most relaxing experience.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Convenient for Sovereign Hill and the city - Quiet and homely. Dog friendly with parklands opposite. It was a lovely touch to have bread baking in the bread maker when we arrived and it was delicious.
- Yvonne (8/5): - Quaint little place. Fresh bread baking as we checked in, nice touch
- John (10/5): Tranquil is right. - Stayed overnight at Tranquility - close to the Trotting Club Bistro, which is good for a meal.
- Verified traveler (8/5): nice way to relax and great management - Jenny was more than helpful when I arrived and had no problem with being contacted . It was so nice to walk in and smell the fresh bread cooking and have breakfast in the fridge for all of us . would be happy to stay there again . thanks Jenny
- Verified traveler (6/5): Oasis - Nice escape from world outside. Lovely smell of fresh bread cooking on arrival. Staff bent over backwards to ensure we were happy and had everything we needed.
Not modern but very homely and comfortable.
- Kate (10/5): - A very quiet and relaxing stay. Family friendly. Jennifer was fabulous, making sure that we had everything we need. Will definitely be coming back.
- George (10/5): Nice quiet place, very relaxing with everything - The moment we arrived and opened the door to the smell of fresh bread cooking, after unpacking car the next thing we did was have a massage in the massage chair to unwind absolutely awesome. Then met the host Jenny who couldn't do enough for us and felt as though nothing was to much trouble, that night I had a spa which was so relaxing, the gas log fire was definitely enough to keep you warm and cosy on the cold nights would recommend to anyone hard to beat.
