Delacombe

Delacombe is a large and rapidly growing industrial/residential suburb on the south west rural-urban fringe of Ballarat, Victoria, Australia. The population at the 2011 census was 4,932 making it the sixth most populated in the Ballarat urban area.

Delacombe forms a large part of the Ballarat West Growth Area where suburban development is encouraged by the City of Ballarat and State Government of Victoria. Much of the city's planned subdivision for new housing estates is happening in Greenfield land in and around the suburb and it is predicted to be home to over 12,000 residents in 2030.

Named after former Governor of Victoria, Rohan Delacombe, it is one of the few Ballarat suburbs with its own shopping centres and a future activity centre for the suburb is planned by the City of Ballarat.


Diane is the best travel agent we've ever had.

She really listened to us and asked a lot of questions so she could arrange the best trip for us. Our trip to Spain was nothing we could have planned ourselves. She took care of all parts of the trip- the air, hotels and tours. She even took care of details that we wouldn't have thought of. We especially loved that she chose hotels with kitchen facilities since we were traveling with our children. That made it easier and also saved us money. Diane even asked about our kids interests and booked tours that they loved. Great experience.
