Family-friendly holiday rentals in Ballarat

This place was in a beautiful location very quiet and private and the house was cozy and comfortable. We loved the comfortable beds, couches and warm living space. a beautiful house in a beautiful area.

Lady Marmalade has quickly become a favourite for our annual girls trip. It’s cozy, close to the shops and a beautiful house. We look forward to our visit every year. James is a great host and very friendly and responsive.

This is a beautiful house in the peaceful neighbourhood that has a close proximity to all you need in Daylesford e.g. supermarket and town area. We highly recommended! Andrew is also proactive and provided a clear instructions and communication for our stay.

We had a lovely stay. Check in was easy. It’s a cosy, clean and comfortable space. We loved all the wonderful art around the property. We also enjoyed the jacuzzi on the deck. It was a short walk into town and just around the corner from the Mill market. We could hear our neighbours easily but they weren’t there for the whole weekend.

Thanks Michele, we loved our short stay in your cottage. It had everything that we needed and more. It was in a beautiful area and it was so peaceful, which is what we were hoping for. When we are back in the Hepburn region we will definitely look at booking again. Thank you, Leanne

We booked this stunning Daylesford house for our best friend’s 40th — and WOW, what a weekend! The vibes were immaculate, the house was beyond gorgeous, and we spent three days laughing, grazing, and sipping Prosecco like queens. Perfect for a girls’ getaway and milestone celebration!

Jennifer and David’s house is a fabulous place to stay in Daylesford! The house itself is modern, clean, spacious, has excellent amenity, and special bonus features including pool, spa and sauna! Communication was easy, always prompt and informative. Will be back. Highly recommend!

Prue was super lovely and made our stay smooth and peaceful. The space is perfect for a couple plus pooch! We all felt very welcome. Location was very central to all of the beautiful Daylesford attractions. Thank you Prue!

We absolutely loved our stay at Geraldine’s gorgeous home. It was warm, spacious, and inviting—perfect for our trip to Ballarat during the tournament when the weather outside was anything but kind. The beds were comfortable and warm, and there was plenty of room for everyone to relax. The house was spotless and clearly very well looked after, with thoughtful family memorabilia throughout that added character without feeling cluttered. The kitchen was well-equipped, so we didn’t need to second-guess whether to bring basics like salt, tea, or coffee. Geraldine had everything covered, including a beautiful welcome basket and a generous supply of cleaning products. All in all, this cozy, welcoming home made our stay truly memorable. We’ll definitely look back on our time here with great fondness. Highly recommend!

Great location, near shops and the house was so beautiful. Only issue we had was we found it difficult to get hot water despite following the instructions left. It also gets a bit hot in the rear rooms in summer but nothing a few open windows cant fix. Thanks for allowing us to have a wonderful weekend.

We stayed in the cottage for two nights over the Ballarat Marathon weekend. It was very convenient to the town centre and very comfortable. Most importantly the cottage is dog friendly and we were able to bring our two dogs with us to stay. The beds were comfortable and the surroundings very quiet. The dishwasher wasn’t working during our stay but Sue advised us before we arrived so we weren’t caught off guard . Overall a good stay.

My dogs and I loved our overnight stay at Piccolo! Emma’s place was super clean, very cosy and welcoming. I will be back for sure when I need a break in this beautiful part of Victoria 😊🐶🐶

We had a great stay! The property was comfortable and well-equipped, making it ideal for our group’s work trip. The host was attentive and thoughtful, even providing extra towels, which was incredibly helpful. The location was convenient, and the amenities made our stay enjoyable and stress-free. We really appreciated the hospitality and the little touches that made us feel welcome. Would definitely recommend to others and consider staying again!

We had a great stay and Renee and Izy's. The location was fantastic for nature, food and fun. Thanks for having us.

Karen was a great host, very responsive and helpful. Allowed us to check in earlier free of charge. The cottage was absolutely beautiful and super clean. Has a very cosy vibe and in a great location. 10/10 would recommend

Ellen and Kevin’s place is really gorgeous and full of character. They go the extra mile to make you feel comfortable. The wood fire is so atmospheric and cosy. They natural surroundings are so relaxing. I highly recommend!

What a lovely little place to stay. I wouldn't say it was dead in the middle of town however wasn't too far out or a short walk. The townhouse was cute and comfortable. Was greatly priced as well. Would recommend and would happily stay here again.

A lovely place for a girls weekend away. Four King sized beds! Great heating. Fire. View. Comfortable! Walking distance to ammenities. We will be back!

What a great house to stay at in Central Ballarat. Easy walk to great cafes and restaurants. Jenny was very easy to communicate with, the accomodation was very pretty and comfortable. And we very much appreciated the thoughtful breakfast supplies left for us! Would definitely stay again- Thanks for having us!

It was great to arrive and find a couple of lights on incase we arrived late. The house was easy to find and the key safe was in a great location. As we walked inside the long passage had some doors running off to 3 large bedrooms and a shared bathroom, the main bedroom had an ensuite that had a very large bath tub in. The beds were soft and the linen was very clean. The house is large and has a beautiful back garden area with a large bird feeder. (take a small packet of bird seed and put in the rotating wheel). The views from the balcony are of nice bush land. The house has a very large common area and the kitchen has everything that you need. Thank you Deb for a loverly house. Warm regards Gary

Couldn’t fault Bluegums at all - beautiful, comfortable, relaxing home, everything worked like clockwork, no problems at all, very homely with quality appliances and everything in good working order - Geoff’s role as host was second to none, friendly advice, attention to detail and Geoff did everything he could to ensure we had an amazing stay at Bluegums - would highly recommend 👍

What a fabulous property! Secluded yet so close to several towns. Beautiful country home that looks even better in real life. The neighbouring farm made the stay more exiting for the kids and we loved the feel of the home and the backyard fire pit and bbq area. We have recommended this property to all our family and friends. We look forward to staying again next time.

Great place! Comfortable beds, beautiful bathroom. Kitchen had everything needed to prepare meals. Would book again when staying in Ballarat!

The place was absolutely amazing. Such a nice set up and really different to anything I’ve ever stayed at before. The house was so clean and really well stocked. The hidden areas were also a gem to find. Amy was also really responsive to messages which helped immensely. Would recommend this place to anyone and everyone !
