Jacks_placeballarat. Original 1960s classic.

Step back in time to a hilltop house with views across the city through picture windows. Exposed brick and the extensive use of natural wood maintain a mid-century atmosphere, enhanced by period furnishings and gleaming softwood floors throughout. The House Manual provides information about Jack's, as we call our house. We do not host guests with accompanying pets and smoking on any part of the house and property is not acceptable. If these rules are not to your liking then please do not book. Jack's Place is an original 1960's architect designed house. A master bedroom with direct access to the bathroom (en-suite except it is the only one!). The second bedroom features jarrah flooring and exposed brick wall. The living area features a unique view across the City especially at night. Functional kitchen and laundry, air conditioning and heating. The rental terms are for the whole house but if a couple book then it is expected only one bedroom is used. On booking it is best to clarify if both bedrooms are required. If not we do not make up the second bed. Jack's Place is a free standing brick residence with its own car space. There is a walled courtyard and front lawn area/garden (yet to be fully developed ). Cate and I live behind Jack's Place and both properties share a driveway. Naturally the drive must be kept clear at all time. More than happy to be contacted with any questions relating to Ballarat in general, food, wine and things to do. This 1962 house is in Golden Point, an old area in the City of Ballarat, about 125 kilometers west of Melbourne. These days the architecture of the area varies from 1860s dwellings, California bungalows, and modern high-density residences. Ballarat's main street is Sturt St. It is about a ten minute walk to the town centre and less to major supermarkets. Parking in town is charged via meter all week. On the edge of the central business district parking is free. Parking around the restaurant area of Armstrong St is difficult. My advice is to walk to dinner and Uber home. Local buses are confusing. Only a few minutes away is The Grapes Hotel, friendly and reliable. Ballarat weather can be variable. I have no control over the weather! We are perched about 375 metres above sea level, cold in Winter and hot in Summer. Summer nights tend to cool down. To keep the house warm and you comfortable, draw the blinds and turn on the heating. There are electric panel heater available in the house. Be very aware that they are not suitable for use when young children are part of the guest party. To cool the house, draw the blinds, close all windows and unnecessary doors and set the cooling for 10C below the outside temperature.

The Barn at Weatherboard

Set among an abundant and lively garden, The Barn is our fully detached, unique guest house. The building was originally a fully functional blue stone farm barn but since owning the property we have converted the space into an open plan house, complete with kitchen, bathroom, large living area and two mezzanine bedrooms. The outside remains in its original state while the inside has been decorated with a collection of artwork and objects from our travels overseas.

Family Country Stay close to CBD 3bdm Pet friendly

SteveRating, 5 stars1 month ago

This is a fantastic place to stay!! It is in a great spot, in that it's close enough to shops and restaurants, but far enough away to be quiet. There's loads of space too. My dog was able to roam the grounds and had loads of smells to discover. For the humans, there's plenty of space in this place. I particularly liked the inside wood heater. There was loads of wood, and so it was fun to maintain an indoor fire to sit near and watch while sipping on a Pinot.

The Cottage WoodlandSculptures

EllRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago

We arrived late on a cold and rainy winter evening to a beautifully warmed cottage and were welcomed by Kerry (out in the dark and wet) ensuring we made it safely through their concreting upgrades. What a superstar! Kerry gave us a quick tour of the cottage and its amenities before leaving us to it. Her place was immaculately clean, luxuriously decorated and so very warm and inviting. We felt right at home. 10/10 would love to come back next time we're in the area. Thank you Kerry!

The Loft at Smythes Creek

LynetteRating, 5 stars1 month ago

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the loft and couldn’t have asked for a more welcoming experience from our wonderful host, Becky, and her lovely family! From the moment we arrived, we were impressed by all the thoughtful and generous touches, including freshly baked bread and eggs from their own chickens, which truly enhanced our stay there. The loft was spotlessly clean, everything smelled fresh and inviting, and the attention to detail really stood out. The location is perfect — it feels like a peaceful retreat tucked away from the hustle and bustle, yet it’s just minutes from town and activities. We would absolutely love to stay here again!

KimRating, 5 stars2 days ago

We were so impressed the moment we got to the property. The grounds are lovely and the house is perfectly designed. We had plans to go out for dinner but once we sat down and instantly relaxed it was hard to go out. A very cosy and comfortable stay. We wish we were there longer

Brooker Tiny Home: Rural Luxury

MelissaRating, 5 stars5 days ago

Had a lovely stay at The Tiny home. We stayed mid June so cold weather as expected but some beautiful walks through the forest that backs onto the home, the fire place made for a very cosy stay, everything we needed was supplied in the home. Georgina had great communication. We brought our little border collie who loved the area, we were aware of lots of wildlife but beautiful to see. Very much a place to switch off, minimal internet and no tv but didn’t need it.

Luxury cottage farmstay- Scotsburn

StaceyRating, 5 stars1 week ago

This is probably the best AirBNB we’ve stayed in to date. Spacious and clean with all creature comforts we wanted, there is literally nothing I could fault about it. We loved the peaceful surroundings, dog friendly is very important to me and there was plenty of room for my dog to run around outside, and lots of beautiful walks around the extensive property, as well as well as lots of friendly farm animals to see. The fire was roaring when we arrived, we never felt cold inside despite being Winter, and we loved all the blanket options and comfy seating for nights in front of the TV. We definitely hope to return again.
