Early check in was very much appreciated and easy. Property was very well thought out and clean.It was a very wet weekend that we visited so staying in was nice and cosy, the fire place and plenty of room to chill was just what we needed.Next time we will stay a bit longer.

Brilliant weekend stay in Daylesford

What a wonderful property for our Mother’s Day getaway weekend. The house was exactly as presented online. 3 really big sized bedrooms - very comfy beds. Very clean; heating on and lovely back ground music playing when we arrived. House had everything we needed including generous basic pantry supplies. Fit 6 adults really easily - plenty of space to spread out if needed. Very appreciative of being able to bring our fur baby who loved the back yard. Thank you so much - we had a great weekend.

Very Quite location

Location was fantastic better than expected. House was lovely and beds very comfortable. Everything you could need in the kitchen...which was needed ....because if you are vegetarian the restaurants were a real let down...and not up to usual standard. Only thing missing perhaps was tv upstairs...but not a problem as downstairs was gorgeous!
