Spring cleaning time! I only just finished with my skip and had it taken away and I have to say I am more than happy with their service. I was able to give them a very specific time frame for delivery, and they were prompt and polite. I was unsure how long I would need the skip for, and they were happy for me just to call when I was ready for it to be picked up.

Not a bad price, either. I initially went with them because they were the lowest price I could find, but, after my positive experience, I will be a repeat customer.

Approximate cost: $140

Wonderful, wonderful costume shop with so much to choose from. I was looking for a nun's habit costume for a party ( if you knew me you'd know how funny that actually is), and didn't want to pay a fortune for one night.

Tada! I found this place and they had exactly what I needed, in 'extra fat size', at a price I was happy with!

One of my favourite coffee spots! Lovely blends of coffee here, as well as some lovely light lunch options.

I normally grab a capp and a snack and just sit and read.

Very friendly staff and a nice atmosphere.

Love the country feel to having a post office and general store all in one, so I try to use this place as much as I can.

We usually head there with a bunch of parcels to post, stop and have a chat, and head home.

Great customer service.

We recently returned from a cruise holiday and couldn't be bothered doing our own washing...and we needed our formal clothing dry cleaned, so we got lazy and dropped the whole lot off here.

We were very happy with the work they did. Everything was clean and fresh!

Having grown up with a holiday house in Ventnor, we went for a trip down memory lane and spent a weekend in Cowes. While we were there, we decided to take one of the cruises.

BEST experience! The crew were exceptionally nice, the food yummy, and the captain went out of his way to make sure we didn't miss our on seeing anything!

I can't talk highly enough of this.... try it for yourself!

Approximate cost: $75

Great location, easily accessible. Good value and good quality wash. Everything is nice and clean, and my car always looks and smells wonderful once I leave.

This is a new store in Ararat which showcases country Victorian talent. There is a variety of handmade children's clothing, also beautiful handmade canvas signs for children's rooms. Good prices and well worth a visit!

We went for a drive to Ararat and stopped and had lunch here. I had the small House Special pizza, and mt partner had the fettucine with king prawns.

The pizza was beautiful. Lovely light, crispy base, and delicious toppings. My partner loved her prawn dish so much she used my leftover pizza crusts to mop up the sauce.

The pizza was $13, and enough for two people, and the entree sized pasta dish was more like a main size.

Great value and great food!

Approximate cost: $16

I've been here once, and once it will remain. The staff were rude, and pretty much ignored me, the floor was filthy, the tables were dirty, and there were flies everywhere.

They do have a big range of pastries, and the pie I had was quite nice, but I'll avoid them in the future because of the cleanliness issues.
