I’ve always had a passion for working with people, and after many years in the customer service industry, I’m excited to bring that same care and attention into hosting. Creating a warm, welcoming space where guests can truly relax and feel at home is what I love most. Our peaceful rural property in Magpie, just outside of Ballarat, offers the perfect escape for those wanting to slow down, unwind, and enjoy the beauty of the countryside. Whether you're here for a short weekend break or a longer stay, my priority is to make your visit as comfortable, cozy, and stress-free as possible. Born and raised in Ballarat, I want to share the wonders that this city has to offer and give my guests a welcoming environment to come home to after a day of exploration. I take great care to prepare a clean, thoughtfully designed space, and I’m always just a message away if you need anything during your stay.
Our neighborhood is full of Ballarat's rich history, with top attractions like Sovereign Hill, the Gold Museum, and heritage sites all close by. You'll find beautiful old hotels for a relaxing drink and a fantastic choice of restaurants offering great food and variety. This charming 1900-build home is ideally located-just a 1.5 km walk to the center of town, and 1.7 km to the train station. All the main sights and amenities of Ballarat are within easy reach, making it the perfect base for your stay.
