About this property
Eureka Cottage - Peaceful Getaway near Sov Hill
Welcome to this beautifully updated cottage in Ballarat, offering the perfect retreat for up to six guests. Located in a peaceful neighborhood, this charming space is ideal for families, friends, or small groups looking for a cosy getaway.
Inside, the open-plan living area combines a comfortable lounge and fully-equipped kitchen, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. Relax on the plush sofas after a day of exploration or enjoy a meal in the well-stocked kitchen, designed with modern appliances to cater to all your cooking needs. Whether you`re preparing a gourmet meal or a quick snack, you`ll find everything you need.
The cottage features three tastefully decorated bedrooms that provide a peaceful haven for a restful night`s sleep. Each bedroom is fitted with comfortable beds and plenty of storage space to make you feel at home. The two bathrooms offer both convenience and privacy.
One of the highlights of this property is its fully enclosed backyard, perfect for your furry friends to roam freely. With an outdoor seating area, BBQ, and secure space for your pets to play, you`ll have plenty of room to unwind while they explore.
Reviews from previous guests highlight the comfort and location of the cottage:
`We had a great stay—clean and spacious for our family. Would definitely stay again.`
`House was lovely and well-located. Communication was excellent.`
`The accommodations were as described and the access was simple, with flexibility for late arrivals. The open-plan layout was cosy, and the front and back fenced yards were great for our dog. The nearby dog park was a fantastic stop.`
`Tastefully updated, very cosy, and comfortable cottage with excellent managers who made check-in easy. The electric blankets were a real bonus during the cold snap!`
For those who enjoy nature, the Yarrowee Creek offers scenic walking trails, and Sovereign Hill is a short drive away, where you can step back in time and experience the gold rush era. The Ballarat CBD is also nearby, providing vibrant shops, restaurants, and attractions.

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.
