We really enjoyed our 6 night stay Ballarat and enjoyed staying at the Cosy Cottage on Mair. We were disappointed that the space at the rear lane of the cottage was not adequte for an average sized vehicle. Also, that the cottage does not have any fly/insect screens. Thank you1

A Great Place to Stay!
I spent 4 wonderful days at Cosy Cottage. Jenny's home is extremely clean, tidy, charming and very lovely. I walked into a warm and cosy cottage as the weather had turned cold and felt immediately at home! What a nice surprise to find bacon and eggs in the fridge ready for the morning breakfast! Thanks, Jenny, for being kind and thoughtful. The beds had fresh linen and were incredibly comfortable. The Cottage is in prime position with only a ten minute walk to the CBD. Communication with Jenny was excellent. I would highly recommend Jenny's cottage for your next stay, as it was perfect! Virginia

Great location, lovely little house.
We had a great stay at Jennys property. The house is great location - walking distance to a lot of restaurants/cafes/bars. We had 4 adults and stayed with our 6 month old and the third room was a great option to have. The house was very clean and the breakfast supplied was a lovely touch. Would definitely recommend! Thanks Jenny!

This house was perfect for a family. It was clean, warm and cosy. The central heating is brilliant and the owner even left us breakfast items such as bread, milk, bacon and eggs. We thoroughly enjoyed our 2 night stay.

Delightful, well equipped, spotlessly clean. Breakfast provisions were much appreciated. Comfy bed and quality linen and towels provided. On site car parking tricky for larger cars, but free parking available across the road. Would certainly consider staying here again.

Lovely cottage. Warm and very clean. Breakfast provisions were generous and delicious. Very good communication from the owner. Good location. We had some difficulty lighting the stove top as it is quite old. We thought it was broken. Unfortunately one of the cast iron single beds had a terrible squeak and creak whenever you moved so interrupted my daughters sleep.

Charming
We had a lovely stay - we were charmed by the older style of the house, and having some staples in the fridge was much appreciated. There were six of us and we didn't feel cramped. It was tidy and cosy. The parking in the back truly is a squeeze in a larger car though - it's manageable if you have someone to warn you how close you're reversing to walls.
