Visit one of many local museums and soak in the history that this lovely city has to offer… The Reservoir itself is steeped in history, originally built in the 1880's. The water tank was Bathurst's only water supply. By the 1950s the town had grown so much that The Reservoir could no longer service the towns needs. In 1989 a local couple purchased the land and reservoir and so began the building of this unique home which was completed in the 90's. Now known by the city of Bathurst as \~\~ The Reservoir \~\~ Photos inside will lead you down memory lane and include images of buildings that still stand today… if you look carefully you can spot them from the dining and lounge room windows!! Guest testimonials... Shane Blatchly reviewed The Reservoir - Bathurst Accomodation — 5 star September 11 · It is evident the owners of this magnificent establishment have lovingly refurbished this property, subsequently you feel at home from the time you walk through its majestic entry. From its warm interior to its unique design and beautiful timber architecture its a must stay option. Spacious, but yet private so if you are planning on hosting a reunion with friends and family, look no further than The Reservoir. We spent time visiting the local attractions and stood in awe of the beautiful historical architecture on show in Bathurst. Friendly people and the added attraction of Mt Panorama being in close proximity. A drive around 'the Mountain' was a feature of our stay. My only advice is book early. This is truly a unique accommodation option for your stay in Bathurst and surrounds. ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the house: Free WiFi ### Parking and transport - Onsite parking includes off-street options ### Kitchen - Blender - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Electric kettle - Hob - Ice maker - Kitchen island - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Spices - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 7 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 4 bathrooms - Bathtub - Hair dryer - Shampoo - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Living room - Separate dining area ### Entertainment - Books - DVD player - Games - Smart TV - Video games - Video library ### Outdoor areas - Balcony - Barbecue grill - Garden - Outdoor furniture ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washer/dryer ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly - Welcoming dogs only - Up to 10 kg per pet ### Suitability/Accessibility - If you have requests for specific accessibility needs, please contact the property using the information on the reservation confirmation received after booking. - Handrails in hallways - Handrails in stairways - Hardwood flooring in public areas - Upper floors accessible by stairs only - Smoke-free property ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board - Unlimited smartphone data usage ### Location highlights - In the city centre - Near a health/beauty spa - Near a hospital ### Things to do - Arcade/game room - Billiards/pool table - Fishing nearby - Golfing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Horseback riding nearby - Mountain biking nearby - Winery tours nearby ### Safety features - No carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is no carbon monoxide detector on the property but there are gas appliances;

We loved the plentiful coffee pods in the mornings!The only thing of any bother was that the property manual seems to have gone missing, but we had some fun puzzling out a few things. Kind of felt right as we spent a fair bit of time mulling over the history of the unique building.Overall a great stay - highly recommended.Thankyou. ##### Dane L.
