À propos de cet hébergement

A quirky mid century house located in the quiet leafy suburb of Newington. Renovated to respect the simple charm of the 1960's, the Retro retreat offers guests an opportunity to relax and unwind and has been carefully curated with a mix of old and new decor throughout. Big windows welcomes natural light and makes the house feel open, bright and inviting. Close to Ballarats shopping precinct, eateries, Lake Wendoree and the Botanical Gardens - Armstrong street Ballarat's culinary strip is a brief stroll or quick uber up the road :Spanish Mexican, Pizza or Asian complete with a delicious cocktail or two to finish off a memorable night out. The retreat is your perfect home from home - to explore Ballarat and the Goldfields.
The entire house is yours and can sleep up to 4 guests - and a large backyard for your fur baby who will love the open space to run free. Its an ideal retreat for a romantic getaway, a girls weekend, or mini break to relax and recharge.
There are two generous size bedrooms - one king and one queen, decorated to respect the simple charm of the 1960s - comfortable beds, quality fresh linen and electric blankets to keep you warm on a cold winters night.
The kitchen is small but has everything you need to make your stay comfortable. Our quirky 1960s kitchen has plenty of kit to whip up a delicious feast/ or if you prefer set up a cheese board a glass of wine and you're set for relaxing night in. There is a bbq and small back deck to relax and unwind or sit back and watch a fav on netflix in the comfort of the lounge - and we offer free fast unlimited WIFI, a 50" smart TV, and plenty of books and magazine. A natural born bower bird at heart I have curated the house with found and foraged objects to respect the charm of the 1960s.
There is a dining room with a mid century dining table - a space to enjoy a delicious feast after foraging for local produce - Ballarat is becoming a food hub with plenty of places to seek out your local feast and you will be spoilt for choice.
Feel free to bring your bikes and enjoy exploring the magical charm of Ballarat - a regional hub and home to many artists, foodies, beer makers and gardeners. Or use the house as a base to explore other regional towns that are within close proximity to Ballarat - and perhaps discover a gold nugget or two.
We look forward to welcoming you to our quirky 1960s Retro retreat and hope you enjoy your stay as much as we love the house and central location. To date guests have marvelled at the simplicity and location of the house - a home away from home.

Photos lie!

The photos don't do this place any where near the justice it deserves. Authentic retro feel with all the mod cons. We felt relaxed and comfortable the minute we entered. Super comfy bed. The whole place was really clean and we lived the little extras we didn't expect. Narelle always answered immediately, we walked into town easily, I'd highly recommend

Lovely spot for our short stay in The Rat

Such a lovely spot for a short stay with our dog. We could trip into the cbd easily, and find lots of green space to walk the dog. She also loved having a fully enclosed and safe backyard to frolic in.The kitchen is well appointed with everything you need. BBQ worked wonderfully for our dinner one night. Great pub nearby for another dinner. Beds super comfy, and the shower is divine! Washing machine and clothesline on site meant we could get a load washed and dried one day, saving us bringing so much laundry home. Thanks so much for the booking! Loved it

Qui vous reçoit ?

Vous êtes reçu par Narelle

Hi my name is Narelle and I live in Central Victoria.
My partner Simon and I are farmers/ foodies who live at Little Hampton and produce healthy organic produce. We have two dogs Tillie the Toller and Ronnie the Springer and thats why we love people to bring along their fur babies when staying at the Retro Retreat as dogs are important and should be able to travel and stay wherever you venture. We love to cook and travel and we are in the process of setting up accommodation on our farm at Little Hampton. An ideal staycation for those wanting to escape the city and venture to the country for some time out. Our property at Ballarat is a great place to escape and when not working on the farm we like to endugle ourselves by staying at the Retro Retreat - Close to amenties and central to many of Ballarats cafes and restaurants. The Botanical gardens home to the annual Begonia festival, there is so much to see and do and we hope you enjoy Ballarat as much as we do .....

Pourquoi avoir choisi cet hébergement ?

The Retro Retreat is a great place to stay as the house is central, close to Lake Wendouree and offers guests the best of both worlds. You can stay in and relax or head out and explore some of the great cafes, restaurants and bars that are popping up throughout Ballarat. The house is quirky and my aim was to create a space that feels like a home away from home - and you feel transported back to a time when life was simple.
Depending on your circumstances - the house is located close to eateries, shopping, hospitals and schools - and we cater for all occasions. For those who have fur babies Victoria Park is a 2 minute walk and a great place for dogs to run off lead and get that well earned exercise or chase a ball or two.

Quels sont les atouts de cet hébergement ?

Quiet street that is walking distance to Lake Wendouree/ cafes/ restaurants and bars.
House is quirky and will transport you back to a time when life was simple.
Onsite parking with an undercover carport.

Walking distance to some of the best coffee places in Ballarat - Johnnys & L'espresso
You can sit on the front porch or back veranda and take in the quietness of the street.
