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.

Modern self contained Unit in a quiet location

PeterRating, 5 stars1 month ago

We really enjoyed our stay. Everything was as described. The kitchen was very well equipped and there was a generous supply of all the basics. Bed was very comfortable, heating was excellent and the shower was great. It is a quiet area away from central Ballarat but there us a big shopping area less than a km away and it is easy to get to from the Western Highway. The absence of wifi is a little inconvenient but Optus reception was fine.

Camellia Cottage Bed and Breakfast Buninyong

DavidRating, 5 stars1 week ago

Gavin and Rosemary were very gracious hosts - friendly, helpful and unobtrusive. The cottage is very comfortable as represented in the listing photos, only a short walk to shops, restaurants and the local botanical gardens. It is a historically listed country cottage set in a delightful private garden setting complete with very cute peking chooks roaming free. The setup is ideal for a family group or close friends. Gavin and Rosemary provided breakfast provisions which was much appreciated.

I could not recommend this stay more! Every detail was perfection, truly a luxury stay. We loved the location. Walking in the town and a nice drive to Daylesford for activities. I was in awe of the design and details of the home. So spacious and carefully thought out. The small details of because soaps, crockery, giant fully towels and privacy made it for us. Thank you Sam and your team we will be back x

Sulky Stay

XandreRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago

We stayed for 2 nights. We arrived in the dark but thanks to Jade’s great directions, had no problem finding it. It was a freezing evening but the fire was already set, ready to be lit and the split system warmed the house up in the meantime. The bed and linen was super comfy and the bathroom clean and spacious with a range of fancy soaps to choose from. The kitchen was fully stocked, complete with groceries in the fridge to make an egg and bacon brekkie. Thank you Jade, your place is lovely.

One of Ballarat's best locations

CatherineRating, 5 stars5 days ago

Thank you so much for letting us stay at your place. It was big and spacious, room for the whole family. House had everything we needed, beds were comfy, loved the coffee machine. The location was central to everything we needed. The Central Heating was the best feature as I think we stayed for the coldest weekend ever, but thanks to the heating we were so warm and cozy. Highly recommend.
