Although there were some building works the house was complete with everything that you would need for 2 families to stay. The bedrooms were neat and comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked with everything you need to cook up a storm. Nice quite location thats in walking distance to the town.

Wonderful autumn weekend

What a fantastic house in a beautiful little country town. Gorgeous garden and so close to the river and the pub. The house had absolutely everything we needed to enjoy the weekend, cosy indoor fire, great outdoor space and outdoor fireplace. Even the local birds came to greet us. Highly recommend this cosy home and little town for a relaxing getaway

Fantastic Jamieson

Jamieson was a perfect stay. Our home for the 4 nights was well presented with a beautiful outlook from large windows through the decking to trees. The decking was a great place to relax as were the two spacious lounge areas. It was walking distance to town and we took some short picturesque walks near the rivers. The local were friendly and helpful. A great place to explore by car or just relax at the wonderful home or both. The home had everything you needed to make the stay comfortable and relaxed.

The perfect stay.

What an amazing place! Absolutely gorgeous home, the large property is beautiful, filled with trees and plants. The photos do not do this place justice. The kitchen, lounge, bedrooms and bathrooms were all cosy and modern with a country feel. The outdoor spaces are lovely! We spent a lot of time sitting on the front deck, that is wrapped in vines, simply stunning and so relaxing. Don’t hesitate on booking this place if you’re looking for a great home for you and a bunch of friends, in the perfect location in Jamieson.

Cozy beautiful house

This was a beautiful place to stay which was located 1hr away from Mt Buller - perfect for our snow trip. I stayed here with my partner and our two friends with their two children. There were 4 bedrooms which was plenty for us! The bedrooms were clean and the two bathrooms were spacious! The kitchen and living room were well equiped with the neccessities and we even received a cute welcome basket with snacks in it! We loved our stay and would highly recommend it for anyone wanting to find a place to stay that is close to Mt Buller.

Had an absolutely wonderful time staying here with my family. the place was neat, cozy, lovely fireplace to keep us warm. the interior is very modern and well maintained, one thing we always check is the old smell of a bnb but this one had none which was great! The goodies in the gift wrap was a nice thought :) Just an advice to improve on is that the patio was wet from the rain so itd be nice to have a mat to come in so our slippers doesnt get the floor wet. overall everything was spectacular, really love the interior design of this house! Thanks for having us :) Looking forward to stay here again with my family

Comfy, cosy, clean and beautifully renovated.

This cottage was the perfect place for our two families (4 adults and 4 children aged between 11-15). The cottage has been beautifully renovated inside, the rooms are spacious and comfortable and there’s an abundance of outdoor space, including a beautiful outdoor fireplace. We spent most of our time indoors, warm and cosy in front of the roaring indoor fire. The house is very well stocked, with a huge amount of kitchenware, new board games and everything you could possibly need. Communication was excellent. Thank you Simone for being such a great host!

Warm and cosy

Walking into the property I could tell this would be a lovely home to stay in during the colder months with the fire place but we stayed during summer! A clean and well thought out property! The house was so nice that the groomsman for the wedding we were attending came and had their photos taken inside and out on the decking. The decking was lovely in the morning to sit out and enjoy a coffee. My children loved running down to play on the swings. There was ample parking for multiple cars. Simone was wonderful at responding to my questions and I wouldn’t hesitate to stay again. The property was just outside of jamieson town centre but easily a short walk if required.
