I'm just a message away on the app if you need anything during your stay. I prefer to keep things virtual, so you can enjoy your privacy and I can assist from afar!

To keep things smooth, please use Airbnb messaging for all communication. It helps us stay organised and ensures nothing important is missed.

This property is located on a main Ballarat Road (mostly cars). The 3rd bedroom is accessed by stairs.
House Rules
To ensure a pleasant stay for everyone, please follow these guidelines:
Be Nice: Treat our staff and contractors like the rockstars they are.
Smoking: Allowed only outdoors, away from doors and windows. Don’t worry, the plants won’t mind.
No Firearms: Leave your slingshots and cannons at home.
No Fireworks: Because we don’t want your holiday to end with a bang (literally).
No Illegal Activities: We’re not running a crime drama here.
Keep It Down: Channel your inner ninja and keep noise levels reasonable.
Guest Limit: Only the number of guests listed in the booking can stay overnight. No sneaky sleepovers.
No Parties: Let’s keep it cosy, not crazy.
Pets: Only dogs are allowed at our properties, and only with prior approval. Check the listing for specific pet rules—Fido deserves a holiday too, but only if we've given the green light!

Upon Check-Out
Dishes: Wash and put away. Pretend you’re at home and your mum is watching.
Turn Off: All lights, heaters, and coolers. Help us save the planet.
Pet Cleanup: Don’t leave us any surprises.
Clean BBQ: If you used it, give it a scrub. We love a good BBQ, but not the cleanup.
Trash: Put it in the correct bins outside. Channel your inner recycling guru.
Linens: Don’t wash them. Seriously, we’ve got it covered.
If these rules are broken, we may have to cancel your stay with no refund. We really don’t want to do that.

Lovely

We had a great time staying in Ballarat. The house was beautiful, we had a couple of problems but were fixed by Craig who came and and helped us out. The bedroom door got stuck and we couldn’t open it, he didn’t take long and it was fixed. TV wouldn’t work,he got it going and all was good. It had everything we needed,beds were very comfortable. The two dogs also had a great time,especially when they found the doggie door. We all had a great few days.
