The Safari Room

Our Safari Room will give you a small taste of Africa with its tribal artwork and decor. The house is in a quiet street, walking distance to Creswick village, cafes, shops and all its charm. Enjoy your private entry and bathroom with a spa bath. A friendly cat and small dog share our comfortable space. They will not invade your area but will welcome you. If you are allergic to animals, this space is not for you. The Safari Room has a tribal theme hand painted by Deb as a tribute to her African upbringing and is a cozy and comfortable space. There is a very comfy queen sized bed with an electric blanket and TV. The room is 'cozy' and not much room for portacots or big suitcases etc - if you need more space or cooking facilities try booking the studio. We can accommodate up another 2 people in our ‘Bohemian Art Studio’ which is on the same residential block. Guests will have their own entry, coffee, tea and toast making facilities located in the expansive laundry adjacent to their private bathroom. There is a toaster, plates and bowls if you would like to bring your own simple breakfast. Please do not ask to use our kitchen facilities or bring your own. Creswick is a charming village with all the amenities visitors would need. There are cafes, a gourmet cheese shop, delis, gift shops, 2 beautiful lakes in town and nearby, a museum, pubs and of course the Creswick Woollen Mill where visitors can buy exquisite woollen products and meet the alpacas. We are 15 minutes from both Ballarat and Daylesford which each have great tourism options and 12 minutes from historic Clunes. Creswick has a great monthly market 3rd Saturday of the month and Sunday hosts the famous and huge Talbot market which is about 20 mins away and well worth a visit if you like markets. Our recommendation for a good meal is the American Hotel which is a 3 minute walk away and the closest eatery to the studio. Also take time to visit St Georges lake - about 1km heading towards Melbourne. Creswick has regular buses and a less regular train service The ‘Bohemian Art Studio’ is a second option for guests and is Deb’s working art studio. It is a one bedroom self contained unit with lounge, dining and kitchen facilities. It has its own private deck area with stunning views and side gate entry.
