We're so glad to hear you had a lovely stay at this well-appointed property. The team at Daylesford Country Retreats looks forward to welcoming you back!
An older property which has been obviously been renovated with an eye for comfort, style and an appreciation for beautiful wooden furniture. It is not fussy but easy to live in. We appreciated the cosy fire and heating. Outlook was lovely and easy walking to the Main Street in a quiet neighbourhood.

Thanks Anne, We look forward to welcoming you back.
Very comfortable and well fitted house. Only minor problem was only a few teabags, all windows were locked with no keys available and no flywire screens (if we could open windows) and no flywire doors so no way to leave doors open for fresh air and prevent flies and mosquitoes entering.
Clean, modern yet old house but suited the Daylesford vibe! Was a very easy check in and very easy house to find suited by the straightforward instructions. Sullied is with everything as well!

Absolutely impeccable property. From the lead light windows, to the amazingly comfortable beds, to the 2 indoor spa baths... bliss. Luxurious, yet homely. An absolute credit to the hosts. I have no hesitation in not only recommending this property to others, but I will also return. Thank you!
Gorgeous house with beautiful views and fantastic amenities. Everything we could possibly need for our few days away. The modern bathrooms were a dream, and the house was quiet and comfy. Perfect for watching a movie or reading in front of the fire. We had a fabulous stay!
Thank you

Wonderful cottage, great attention to detail, great view.
The home was wonderful - beautifully renovated with attention to detail everywhere. The bathroom was exceptional, the deck and the view wonderful and the amenities excellent. We enjoyed our stay immensely and discovering Daylesford was easy and accessible. , The gift bag was a lovely touch and much appreciated. Thank you

Thanks Doug & Wendy, we're so happy you enjoyed your time with us :)
Superb House. Beautiful Bathrooms. Very well equipped kitchen. We would highly recommend this property and would love to stay here again. We felt we were staying in a well loved house. The only thing we would suggest, is perhaps an outside gas heater, (or even outside blankets) so we could enjoy the beautiful views in the freezing temperature. However, the heating in the house was brilliant.

Thanks Tracy, during the cooler months some outdoor blankets would be perfect - thanks for the idea!
Opening the front door to find the fire on and a bag of goodies on the table set the scene for a beautiful stay. No need to spend a fortune on going to a spa when the 2 bathroom spas were fantastic. A very clean and beautifully furnished cottage with an incredibly equipped kitchen/ butler's pantry. A wonderful book cabinet to browse through and comfy couches to curl up on in front of the fire.

wow - thanks Catherine, we're so happy you enjoyed Gladville!
Absolutely stunning property, even better than described.
We thoroughly enjoyed our 2 night stay in this home. It was clean, cosy, and had a wonderfully calming and happy atmosphere.
Although we thought we would be a little closer to the town centre, it was still an easy 10 minute walk.
The view was sensational as was the outdoor area's (even in mid winter).
We highly recommend this home to anyone seeking a relaxed, cosy and comfortable stay in Daylesford.
