Always love staying within the castle grounds accommodation whilst visiting for the Ballarat Basketball Tournament. The only negatives with our room were a damp patch of carpet caused by a leak due to heavy rain the day prior (staff had already advised us and had dried it as best they could). Also the fan in the bathroom activates via motion sensor which was a bit annoying at night as it is a noisy fan. Aside from those things we have no complaints, plenty of bunks and breaky boxes provided each morning. Already booked again for next year.
