Staying in the Ballarat region provides a
wealth of options from 19th century hotels to traditional miners
cottages, historic farmhouses and contemporary apartments.
Ballarat’s main thoroughfare, Sturt St, is a
tree line boulevard featuring manicured gardens and sculptures,
alfresco dining and a range of shopping experiences.
The discovery of gold in Ballarat in 1851 not
only laid the foundations of one of Australia’s largest inland
cities, but also yielded majestic architecture.
