Ballarat Cottages
Overview
Ballarat Cottages offers a peaceful hideaway just three kilometres from Ballarat's CBD, tucked among native gum trees and birdsong. The property features two distinct spa cottages - each designed with couples in mind - making it an inviting spot for romantic getaways or a quiet retreat from city life.
Guests can choose between the attic-style Yarrowee Cottage or the nautically themed Admiral's Cottage, both with spa baths and cosy touches. Overlooking the Yarrowee River and right by the Goldfields Walking and Cycling Track, it's a great base for exploring the region or simply unwinding by the fire. Heidi and Jake, the owner-managers, are hands-on and ready to help make your stay comfortable.

Guests love Ballarat Cottages for its tranquil, tucked?away setting by the creek, lush gardens and abundant birdlife. Reviewers highlight the cosy, spotless cottages like Yarrowee Cottage, Admiral Cottage and Bilrene Cottage, with thoughtful touches throughout. The self?contained kitchens, comfy beds and pillows, crisp fresh sheets and fluffy towels make stays feel easy and indulgent. Many mention relaxing extras such as the two?person spa, great rain shower, TV/CD/DVD with a big selection of DVDs, games and magazines, plus central heating and split?system air con. Outdoors, favourites include the quirky dog?shaped fire pit, gazebo/rotunda and pergola with BBQ, and direct access to the Wallaby Track and riverside reserve.
The location is quiet yet close to Sturt St, central Ballarat and Sovereign Hill, making it ideal for exploring then unwinding. Families appreciated the garden spaces, spa and fire pit, while couples praised the privacy and romantic feel. Several reviewers mentioned Rob for his friendly, helpful hosting, and many plan to return. Clean, comfortable and character?filled, its a relaxing hideaway that feels like a home away from home.
