Back at camp, find a little gold yourself as you relax by the pool while the kids are busy playing. They’ll love our all-ages playgrounds and sporting facilities, while our sensory room provides a thoughtful space for children on the autism spectrum. With accommodation to suit all styles, budgets and group sizes plus spacious caravan and camping sites, everyone is welcome at NRMA Ballarat Holiday Park.
