Cosy cottage on mair

A welcoming cottage in the heart of Ballarat. Just minutes walk to the CBD with plenty of restaurants and shopping outlets, movies, bars, supermarkets, hospitals, train station, public transport and the historic architecture Ballarat has on offer. The cottage comfortably caters for six people but I can accommodate an extra two people with quality air beds and linen. The cottage is within a 10 minute walk to Lake Wendouree. There are plenty of family friendly activities within reach such as Kryal Castle, The Eureka Stockade Museum swimming pools, sovereign hill, city library, skate park, parks and more.

Unwind in the cosiness of this cottage style home with all the mod cons such as central heating, air conditioning, spa, cooking facilities and wi-fi. I have just included electric blankets on all beds to add extra comfort for my guests in winter.

This property has 3 bedrooms, lounge, foyer, kitchen, bathroom with spa, separate toilet, laundry and both front and back deck. Room for the whole family with one bedroom containing a Queen size bed, the second bedroom with a double bed and the third features 2 single sized beds.

There is off street parking available at the rear of the property with access via a side street.
Guests can also book on the day up to 7pm at night.

Cute little house in a great, central location.

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.

Beautiful 100 year old cottage

Absolutely loved Cosy on Mair. Beautifully furnished, spotlessly clean, old world charm with modern conveniences and close to the centre of Ballarat. Everything we needed was thought of including breakfast supplies. Would rate this place 10/10.

Xmas 2023 family visit.

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!

Cosy Cottage

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.
