If the word "WOW" is what you are after, you won't be disappointed. On arrival at the property electric gates welcome you to the property and allow entry. Stonehenge Retreat is a simply stunning elevated secluded hideaway set on 1000m2 allotment set amongst gorgeous trees. A fully self contained residence nestled in a magnificent treed garden this unique property that can accommodate up to 8 people is so beautifully appointed you wont want to leave & only minutes from CBD. A peaceful well appointed home that relaxes you from the moment you step in the door. On arrival at the property electric gates welcome you to the property and allow entry. Stonehenge Retreat is perfect for families, couples, wedding parties, anniversaries or a private weekend getaway. Our exquisite open plan loft style accommodation consists of Loft 1, a queen size bed, Loft 2, consists of a day bed that converts to another queen size bed. Downstairs has a private room with 2 single beds, whilst the lounge room couch can convert to a double sofa bed. The property offers semi ensuite upstairs in Loft 1 while the main bathroom is on the ground level. The open fire is certainly adds to the relaxing stay (we do provide a little firewood to get you started between April-Oct) or alternatively flick the gas heater or split system on for instant comfort control.
My husband Harry and I acquired the property at the end of 2015 and spent a couple of months renovating the property and then opening it to our guests in March 2016. We are both very pleased to of added our own personal touches to the property.
Located only 3km’s north of the city centre and Lake Wendouree Stonehenge Retreat offers the feel of privacy and seclusion with the convenience of close proximity to the CBD and all the attractions Ballarat has on offer.
