The home is absolutely lovely, very welcoming, in a quiet street, comfortable and had everything you could need including food essentials and central heating for those chilly nights. It is also very welcoming for pets and the yard is secure. It is located within a short walk to the lake. It is the most homely accommodation I have stayed in. Thank you Geraldine!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Skye House. The house was extremely comfortable and meticulously presented. Our host thought of everything that we could possibly need to make our stay enjoyable. The location is perfect, easy to walking into town or the numerous cafes around Lake Wendouree. Without a doubt we will be back. Thanks

Fantastic property, so close to the main town of Ballarat. In a beautiful part of Ballarat surrounded by gorgeous properties and streets. We loved wondering for a morning coffee and looking at all the lovely homes. The owner was just so lovely. The house was clean and nice and perfect. Great weekend away. Thanks for having. 10/10.
