Ballarat Holiday Homes - Bells Lane - Large Home with Double Garage - Only Minutes from Ballarat CBD - Sleeps 1 to 10 is set in Ballarat, 3.4 km from Regent Cinemas Ballarat, 5.6 km from Mars Stadium, and 7.3 km from Morshead Park. The air-conditioned accommodation is 3.1 km from Ballarat Train Station, and guests can benefit from on-site private parking and complimentary WiFi.

The location, whilst not in the center of town was perfect. If you are staying in a house this big you would most likely have a car and nothing is more than a few minutes away. On arrival you go down a driveway which has plants growing out of garden beds on the side, it really feels like you are entering your own little space. Once you get past this section, ignoring all the chimes from the cars radars, it opens into a large space with a double garage entered via two single doors. Getting the keys and entry is a breeze as the host gave clear and concise instructions. When you enter the house you are struck by the amazing artwork throughout, most if not all made by the host. I thought the decor was amazing and really well thought out. I actually had the discussion with my wife as to wondering if they were for sale I was so impressed. The bathrooms were well stocked and everything you could need, including a first aid kit, was in there. This is better than any motel/hotel I have ever stayed in for a family with kids and well worth the money. My kids loved the multitude of books they could read and all the age appropriate toys. There were so many toys and books that I wish we had taken a picture so I knew where to put them all when we left as my kids got EVERYTHING out. The kitchen was well stocked with all the utensils a family could need and even some other bits and bobs that you usually forget like aluminium foil. I could not find a bottle opener but I would not be an aussie if I did not take one with me so it was not a problem. I'm sure there would have been one but I did not find it. The attention to detail was noticeable even in the little things like the Moccona Indulgence Coffee instead of the cheap stuff you normally get given. I would add more but no space left :( I did my check with the local police on the area and was told it is a safe area which it was.

    The lodge itself exceeded my expectations, it was a beautiful chalet with a veranda, compact yet spacious and with everything you would need for a self catering holiday, very clean and modern with air conditioning making it a relief to enter in extreme hot weather. I really enjoyed my short stay. It felt safe for a single traveller and gated access with a code meant I could come and go out of hours. The lodge had dedicated parking right outside. Would definitely stay again if I could have the same lodge, I loved it!
