Perfect spot for our quick getaway — just a short walk to shops, the lake, and parks. The place was clean and well-kept, and my furry friend had a great time. The hosts were wonderfully accommodating and easy to contact. Definitely will be back.

Lovely accommodation

The cottage was as pictured, spotlessly clean and quiet. Very tastefully decorated, which made it a pleasure to be in. A bonus was Percy and Percy, just across the road which served excellent coffee and food. The bottle of wine left was a very kind gesture. TYVM. We would definitely book this cottage again.

My first choice accommodation in Bendigo

Wonderful stylish character period home. So welcoming and comfortable indoors and out. The neighbourhood has a gentle relaxed vibe and we enjoyed strolling to the interesting historic cafes and hotels nearby.When we return for a longer visit to Bendigo, will definitely book in at Hargreaves Cottage.

A little bit of Bendigo history near the heart of town

We had a lovely couple of days in this charming house in a very quiet street just a 20-minute stroll away from the main town precinct. There were 2 excellent cafes less than 5minutes walk from the front door. The house itself was very comfortable and well cared for. Communication from Glenn was excellent, thank you.

Great getaway

We just wanted a few days out of Melbourne for a change of scenery and a quiet NYE. We love Bendigo and this property was perfect: quiet street, AC and comfortable with all the amenities you need. It was in a great location, walking distance to everything. Plus it was pet friendly so we could bring our dog and it was fully fenced x
