Our home is situated in a village 15minutes south of the regional City of Ballarat, Central Victoria. Melbourne is less than 2 hours by car or via frequent train service from Ballarat or Wendouree. Ballarat is a major regional centre with heritage buildings , gardens and museums such as Sovereign Hill and the Eureka Centre and has a strong pastoral and goldrush history.
