Thanks again for having us! We had a lovely stay at “Amanda” - very comfortable house, close to everything in Daylesford. Nice yard (fully fenced - our doggo enjoyed plenty of space to safely explore) and beautiful views from the front deck, especially in the afternoon light. Fireplace kept us warm and cozy during a cold week. Well stocked kitchen - everything we needed was there. Hosts very communicative and friendly. Hope to stay here again in future! :)

Lovely stay

We enjoyed our stay very much, the house has such a special feel to it. It was clean, good quality furnishings and items, and open and airy. We particularly liked to location, only a few hundred meters from the street. We would recommend this home to others.

We were very comfortable here for our short stay, though we struggled to get the air conditioner to work when the weather got hot. Apart from that, we had everything we could want.

Perfect

Property exceeded expectations. Literally everything we needed and more! The heating had been switched on before we arrived. Soooo warm and cosy. Perfect location. Easy walk to the lake and surrounds. Just metres to cafes and restaurants. We have stayed in Daylesford a few times. This is far and away the best we have stayed in. We will be back!

Lovely warm home

Great house and location. Although my friend has a dust allergy and the wood paneling throughout the house was dusty. Air conditioner next door was very noisy. Otherwise fantastic!

Awesome Amanda

Great place for a stay in Daylesford. Super close to town and walkable to everywhere. The home is really cosy and well appointed. It is on a main street into town so if you're a light sleeper bring some ear plugs and problem solved although that's only an issue in the front bedroom so you can always just stick a kid in there :) like we did. We had a small issue and communication with the host got it resolved easily. We'll definitely be picking Amanda next time we're taking a break in Daylesford.
