Reply 29th March 2022

Thanks Jacinta for recommending us. We love our house and glad you enjoyed the wine. We look forward to welcoming you back

Lovely location

Lovely location in a quiet neighbourhood, easy walk to the main street and only a short drive into Daylesford. Mischa was great to communicate with and we really enjoyed our stay.

Quaint and Comfortable

Good location – away from the town centre but close enough to walk. The house is quaint and comfortable. Arriving with the fireplace already set up was great. Beautiful balcony, comfortable beds, everything was clean and check-in was easy. Would stay again!

A Dream Stay for us and our Doggies.

Cabrito was a dream stay for us. The property is so clean and has all we could have needed. We made the most of the views of the kangaroos as well as the hammock on the deck. 15 min uphill walk into town and being away from the main strip suited us perfectly. To have a dog friendly property this nice was excellent!

Perfect Little Getaway

This was a perfect getaway spot to enjoy Daylesford, it was a really convenient location which offered enough space and privacy to feel relaxed and comfortable, while still being close enough to town to enjoy the shopping and eateries. Our favourite part was lighting the fire every night while watching movies, drawing a bath to unwind, and the lovely views of the nearby mountains from the porch.

Lovely Home

Sparkling bathrooms, old work charm, really well equipped kitchen. We loved the location perched up on the hill in Daylesford. A really relaxing property.

Sensational Gardens.

Reverie, a place to call home. Thank you for making our stay so enjoyable and relaxing. I took my partner here for his birthday and he fell in love with the place the moment we pulled up at the driveway. You guys have been so great with responding to my messages and the owners were super friendly! Sadly, we didn’t get to meet George your resident wombat. Sensational gardens and beautiful accommodation. However, safe to say, we look forward to coming back!

Exquisite Accommodation

Wow!!!!! This is an absolutely amazing place to stay!!! I hardly know where to start. The grounds are magnificent, a private garden wonder that we loved strolling around. The accommodation is exquisite, so many thoughtful touches and amazing decor. We also loved the full kitchen. Every little thing has been thought about, and we so appreciated the welcome hamper, stocked fridge and other thoughtful gestures throughout our stay. And yes, the bath is fantastic! As is the cosy wood-burning fire. And the alpaca blankets. This is by far one of the best accommodation experiences we’ve ever had, and we really hope we can come back soon.

Amazing Bath Tub with Views.

Beautiful, inviting and cozy place. A lovely mix of old homestead charm and modern amenities. The whole place exceeded my expectations but I especially loved the fireplace, the comfortable couches, the amazing bath and all the wonderful books (and that’s only the inside!!) highly recommend this place for a couple nights away.

Great Location

Beautiful location, amazing house!!! Highly recommend for anyone thinking about heading up to he Daylesford/Hepburn region. Loved our stay!!!

Peaceful stay in a Beautiful Home

We had a very peaceful stay. It is so quiet and we got to see some beautiful wildlife. The house gets lots of light The gardens are beautiful and we loved there was so many peaceful places to sit and relax.

Cozy Space in a Prime Location

We really enjoyed staying for the three days in this studio. It was very clean and well maintained. The studio felt very spacious for two of us so we didn’t feel cramped in. Loved the location of the studio as well as you could walk to the Sunday market and then hop on the vintage train. It is also only a short drive to the town centre. Despite the closeness to everything, it is also very private. Amazing stay and would definitely come back again.

Spacious Home in Hepburn Springs

We loved our stay at Hepburn Springs. The house was spacious and well resourced for 6 adults and day visitors over the Christmas period. We loved using the deck for relaxing and watching the friendly kookaburra visit us each evening together with kangaroos in the back yard. The yard was also great for family games. We enjoyed the walks from the house in all directions. Communication was excellent and everything ran very smoothly.

Exudes Style

A large and generously furnished home. The kitchen is well appointed and we enjoyed cooking a meal one night. Beds very comfortable and the neighbourhood is very quiet. Beautiful decorated, exudes style.

An Amazing Home

This is an amazing place would thoroughly recommend – will be a very memorable experience our extended family 3 couples and grandparent had plenty of space and probably only used a fraction of the space – will definitely book again!

Absolutely Beautiful Home

You won’t be disappointed by this very well appointed, well maintained and absolutely beautiful home. Two great garden areas and literally dozens of places to sit and enjoy the house, the kitchen is well stocked so you can plan a dinner party or just drink wine and relax

Lovely Open Plan Home

Lovely open plan kitchen, living and dining with gorgeous views over the town. The whole home is renovated, to a lovely standard, making it a lovely, relaxing stay. Thoughtful touches throughout were appreciated, including body wash, shampoo and conditioner tea, coffee, milk and lots of kitchen amenities. The two bathrooms made it a lovely comfortable stay for multiple guests. The furniture is really comfortable and thoughtfully selected. Thank you for a lovely stay.

Beautiful Home in a Great Location

Maple Hill is a beautiful home and made for a very comfortable weekend away. The location is very convenient – only a short walk to town. The house is beautifully appointed with lots of extra features. The beds were very comfy and the two giant baths is a huge plus. The landscaping outside could use a little work – particularly the ramp leading to the backyard, which feels a little treacherous, but the firepit area is lovely and perfect for having a drink around. We had a wonderful stay and would definitely come back.

Impressive home

We loved our stay at Maple Hill. Though unassuming from the outside, the inside of Maple Hill is just beautiful, with lovely styling and impeccably clean interiors. The kitchen is really impressive, with everything needed to create any meal; the bedrooms are spacious and comfy; the entertainment space is well appointed; the bathrooms are modern; and the location is excellent. Thanks for having us!

Beautiful Home

Serena was a beautiful house to stay in, with a great view and a convenient stairway leading to a path along the lake. It was bliss to curl up in front of the fireplace with a good book in the evenings, and mornings here were glorious when the sun shone through the large windows. I will stay here again.

Balcony in the gum trees.

We stayed here for 2 amazing nights. The house is so beautiful, with the balcony overlooking the gum trees all around. In the morning you can hear the birds chirping it was so relaxing just sitting there. It has the basic amenities for cooking. It’s in a great location the lake is 2 mins away and the Main Street 5 mins. We love out stay,

The outdoor spaces also looked lovely, although a bit cold for us to enjoy on this visit! An easy walk into town and close access to the lake.

We just love out stay

The Little School House in Hepburn Springs has a little bit of magic about it. Quirky retro toys, wood fire, two great bedrooms and surrounded by gardens, we loved it.

An absolute Gem

The Little School House in Hepburn Springs is a gem. Great location, wonderful gardens and just a fantastic little house.

Right out of country style magazine

We absolutely loved our stay at the old school house. The house was stunning, right out of country style magazine. It was very clean and had everything we could possibly need. We loved the lawn out the back for ball games with our two year old. Perfect location for heading to the pub for dinner or just a walk to the mineral springs. Can’t wait to head back…maybe adults only this time!

Absolutely gorgeous.

This cottage was absolutely gorgeous. Very homely and cosy, with everything one needs. The gardens were very well kept, giving us a lovely relaxing backdrop to unwind and relax with.

Amazing

Amazing property with great touches like complimentary food items and drinks. Sparkling clean, comfortable and welcoming. We loved our stay here it was absolutely wonderful.

Truly Magical

This location exceeded my expectations in so many ways, it is beautifully positioned to take in all the sights of Daylesford and surrounds, walking distance to restaurants, shops etc but once on the property you could be a hundred miles from anyone. The peace and tranquillity this space offers is truly amazing, the little gardens are perfect to relax in, the amenities are first class throughout the house. I honestly could not think of one thing that the hosts could improve on. It is truly a magical place.

Loved out stay.

We absolutely loved our stay, the place was well fenced for our dogs and secure. The house was nice and private. We loved the set out of the house, the two levels are great especially if you are travelling with another couple or just to have your own space. The house and property was clean and had everything you needed. Thanks again

Gorgeous Furnishings.

Couldn’t have asked for a better location, a 2 minute walk across to the Lake and 5/10 minute stroll into town. The furnishings are all gorgeous and there’s plenty of breakout space for everyone to enjoy. Spa bath was also a big hit. Highly recommend, would stay anytime

The views and the sky is ever changing and just when you think you have seen the most beautiful sunset, the next day is even more magical! I certainly will be back!

House is perfectly setup.

House is perfectly setup for a group of adults, hard to find a house where all rooms have very comfortable queen beds. My adult family and their partners were very happy that nobody got stuck with a single bed. A beautiful big secure backyard. Outdoor area with plenty of space to spare, great for group/family alfresco dining or morning coffees. Nice clean bbq with everything you need on hand. The house is well thought out, comfortable, clean and well appointed. Location was perfect for our needs.

Great backyard and deck.

Excellent house for a few families. Great backyard and deck.

Loved out time here.

Great location, very nice space for a group getaway. Easy check in and out. Stovetop can be slow to heat up and so takes time to cook for a large group.

Loved it

Lovely place, nice and clean. Great for family and friends catch ups. Very spacious and big.

Just wonderful

Just wonderful. We come together once a year and the quality of the accommodation is so much a part of our trip. Shared spaces were wonderful. Kitchen clean and well stocked with crockery and utensils.

Very quite and relaxing location.

Artemis Retreat is a great walking distance from the centre of Daylesford. Very quite and relaxing location. Clean and tidy. Lots of room for larger groups to enjoy the company of others. The deck is a bit lacking in comfortable outdoor furniture but still a nice and peaceful space. Bed rooms a good size, very user friendly bathrooms. Separate toilets great with large groups. Spa was clean and pleased.

A relaxing space for a weekend away from Melbourne!

What a relaxing space for a weekend away from Melbourne! This is especially suited for couples or young families. The cottage is cleverly appointed and offers luxurious features. The beds were amazing and the outdoor features (tennis court, fire pit and bush walks) were great. The retreat is located only a short drive from town and Hepburn Springs.

Three words!

Only 3 words needed: unbelievably the best!

Lovely and secluded.

Lovely, quiet secluded spot outside Daylesford

Beautiful location in the woods

Beautiful location in a wooded hidden away area let us float away from all life’s problems. The indoor fireplace the perfect touch helping us relax away all weekend. The place was so homey, easy to check in and out and totally secluded just what we wanted. Well furnished, comfy, heating amazing and great amenities.

Staff who manage Bodhi are exceptional

First and foremost, let me begin by saying the staff at Bodhi are absolutely exceptional. They actually went out of their way to run around the Daylesford post office to try and track down a missing parcel of mine for Valentine’s Day. They are so friendly and welcoming and communicate perfectly. Now to get to the cottage itself – we stayed in #1 (Billabong) and it was AMAZING. Felt like we were actually overseas isolated surrounded by nothing but beautiful nature and the birds chirping (and yet somehow still close to everything) The beds were so comfortable – best sleep we’ve had in a while – the shower pressure was amazing, shampoo and conditioner smelt incredible. Hairdryer included, COFFEE PODS (thank you we used every single one) beautiful decor for cute photos, and the most comfortable pillows. Everything was clean and superb and the whole check in/out process was simple and straightforward. Wifi also worked amazing considering we were in a no reception area. We have already recommended friends to stay here in future. 11/10 recommend.

I proposed to my girlfriend.

Our weekend an amazing experience. The house was fantastic and the gardens as well. This is an awesome space for a couples weekend. I came up to Daylesford to propose to my girlfriend this weekend. I had the lake nearby as a potential location to propose at but I chose the back garden of this house instead because it is a beautiful location. I would recommend this house to any couple looking for a weekend getaway. PS. she did say yes!

Plenty of room in this lovely home.

This retreat is a great getaway with plenty of room to share with others on a weekend away. This is the second time we have stayed here at this retreat and of course a nice surprise with a bottle of wine left for us to enjoy…

A relaxing home for our family.

Lemontree is a beautifully decorated and comfortable home. The kids loved the backyard and the trampoline, which made for a more relaxing stay for the adults too! We would definitely recommend Lemontree, and hope to stay again sometime.

One work – Stunning!

Absolutely fabulous! One word…Stunning! Beautiful location, gorgeous home, incredibly stylish, sparkling clean, with everything you need (including coffee) and touches you didn’t realise that you needed in your life. The spa house and outdoor area complete with fire are the things that dreams of made of. Lovely hosts, great communication. Would highly recommend.

We loved it!

My partner and I loved this property! It was at first smaller than expected but the place was perfect for the two of us and we absolutely loved the outdoor scenery as well. For an hour we watched the blue fairy wren fly around. The place was clean and had natural lighting that was excellent in the morning to wake up to.

Garden Views.

We had a great time staying here. We really enjoyed the complimentary snacks, garden views and comfortable bed.

Absolutely amazing.

The home and location was absolutely amazing. We loved our weekend away and wish we could have stayed longer. We will definitely come back.

1970’s Style

Nice and close to Daylesford main street, down a cosy little residential street. We were amazed by how much matching 70s furniture this place had! Lovely place

Incredible gardens

We could not fault this property, we had a wonderful two days of fun and laughs surrounded by beautiful gardens.

We were stunned. Simply amazing.

Simply amazing. We were all stunned by what a beautiful place we have scored last minute, on a long weekend too! The house was gorgeous, with beautiful extra touches. We walked into a house with a gorgeous front garden, and plush pillows and a welcome food hamper! All the appliances were brand new and the house seemed newly refurbished. It had everything we needed and more, along with a huge backyard where we played ball and frisbees. Great communication with Daylesford Country Retreat.

Our mornings started and ended with a walk around the property down to the lake. Such a comfortable house and will definitely be back to stay again.

Beautiful home

This is a beautiful home. Lovely touches, a great gas fireplace that kept us warm on the frosty nights and the pizza restaurant listed in the compendium was terrific. I highly recommend Churchills and Daylesford Country Retreats.

Fantastic property

Roaring fire, fantastic new kitchen and lots of living space. Back garden is fantastic

This place is wonderful

Very secluded, beautiful feel and decorations, and well set up as an weekend getaway. The garden is amazing – Highly recommend!

Exceptional location

I recently had a girls weekend away here and it was an exceptional location and exactly what we wanted/needed. The service and hospitality of the group went above and beyond – we got lost, bogged and literally saved by Troy! Beautiful gardens, we loved it.

This is a very special place

Italian Hill is perfect. It is perfect for two couples and the bedrooms are enormous and luxurious and quite separate. They are joined by a lovely lounge/ eating area with a fire. it is relaxing and comfortable. The garden is just beautiful and there is lots of places to sit outside and enjoy it. This is the perfect house to cook up a storm and stay in and eat and drink and enjoy, no oven but there is a BBQ. There are lots of places to eat in town but I just wanted to enjoy this house and not have to drive into town and back for meals.

Cozy and extremely clean

Very cosy and extremely clean, had everything we needed for our stay. The Communication was much appreciated and I will definitely return and recommend to family and friends !

We had a lovely stay here. The cottage has everything you need and is pet friendly with a locked-in front yard. I would recommend to friends (suits couples) and stay here again. Thank you so much for the wine, coffee, and chocolates. We also enjoyed the lovely shampoo/conditioner from the local area.

Beautiful house in an amazing location.

An easy walk to town. We appreciated having the fire set up for us and all the other thoughtful touches. Great setup for our dog with an enclosed yard he enjoyed. We will happily return!

Our small dog also loved the secure yard to roam around

We had a very enjoyable stay at Giraffe Manor, the house was excellent, modern with everything we needed, the gas fire was great for winter and the house came with some nice touches. Location was perfect only a few minutes walk to town and a nice stroll to the lake.

Loved the classical CD collection

A great quiet place to stay, so close to amenities. Loved the gift of free bottle of wine. Also loved listening to extensive classical CD collection

Absolutely gorgeous space

Has everything you need for a short stay. Whilst cupboard space is not available, there are many hooks and hangers to hang clothes. Lovely cosy and immaculately clean room. Would definitely return.

Lovely thoughtful touches

This is a beautiful space with lots of lovely thoughtful touches. We loved sitting in the garden under the walnut tree. We recommend this lovely place.

Sweet thoughtful decor, lovely fresh white hotel linen

A cute private area, perfect for a couple looking for a night away to explore Daylesford.. Enough space and charm for you to relax and unwind.

What a cozy and relaxing weekend spent in Hepburn

The house was perfect for our needs. On arrival, we immediately felt at home. We loved the movie room and spacious bathroom!

We had an amazing weekend

When we arrived at night, the heater was already turned on for us! The place was amazing and it had all we needed for our stay! It was so cosy and home-y. Would definitely come back! Their tips on where to go helped a lot too!

This country cottage is perfect

I stayed for 5 nights and didn’t want to leave. The view from the front porch was magnificent and we loved the birds. Very peaceful with only the sounds of nature yet a 2 min drive into town. Pet friendly too, and I think my dog was sad when she knew it was time to go home….there are wonderful walking tracks from the front gate. I’m going back for sure and think this place deserves the best recommendation. Thank you

Secluded with a beautiful view

The location was quiet and secluded with a beautiful view out the front door to nothing but trees and the sound of birds – just what was needed. The property itself is so comfortable and thoughtfully styled with everything you need. I can’t wait to return, we had an amazing weekend.

Absolutely stunning

Absolutely stunning place, perfect place to relax. Open fire, amazing bath with another fire. I would thoroughly recommend staying here.

Highly recommended

It’s a beautiful place to get away for a weekend (or a week … we could have happily stayed much longer). It was freezing outside but cost inside by the fire. Close to the lake for a nice walk and into town. Highly recommend a stay here.

Just brilliant.

Just brilliant. Will return for sure. Thanks again- last minute booking and way exceeded expectations. Having coffee, tea etc was fine. Everything great- walking back up the hill quite difficult, but nothing to do with you

Our stay at Azure was wonderful

The accommodation was in a great location – an easy walk to town and dining options. It was very comfortable and very well equipped.

Fabulous property.

Fabulous property, even nicer than described. Perfect for a chill out weekend with all amenities & Daylesford on your doorstep. We loved it.

Thank you for sharing this beautiful place

Soothing surrounds of nature

This place was lovely and had features for total comfort and the soothing surrounds of nature. I loved it.

Incredible gardens surround this luxury retreat. Could not fault anything, simply exceptional. We did not want to leave and made another booking before leaving.

Stunning location

Great place in quiet location but very easy access to local amenities and Daylesford. Much much bigger it was and loads of extras. Been to Daylesford for weekends away and this is definitely one of the top locations to relax in

Lindy & Rod, Boronia

August 2019 In 2018 we made a decision to place one of our properties with Daylesford Country Retreats after managing it ourselves for several years. We were immediately impressed with Troy and Brendan’s friendly manner and attention to detail. Income from our property has tripled, guests continue to be delighted and as owners, we are supremely confident that they look after our property as if it were their own. Early in 2019, based on this demonstrated track record, we decided to transfer our second property to Dayburn. Again, Troy and Brendan went above and beyond, and this made the transition from the other agency seamless and pain free for us. We continue to appreciate the proactive marketing, the high standards they insist on from caretaker staff, the continual bookings, the outstanding guest feedback and the transparent and timely communication we receive. Daylesford Country Retreatst have truly set the benchmark for customer service in the short stay holiday market in Daylesford. We are so pleased to be partnering with such a trustworthy and excellent team. Thanks Troy, Brendan and Mischa.

Gorgeous linen on the super comfy bed.

We celebrated our wedding anniversary with a weekend away around the Daylesford area, staying at Cafe Latte. If anyone is like us, and reads the reviews to confirm whether you’re making the right choice, I’d really encourage you to choose this property. For a couple it was super spacious and there is the most gorgeous back terraced area with a really long beautiful garden. We chose the room on the left as you enter, whose view each morning was of only blue skies and gum trees. The bed was an incredibly comfortable, with gorgeous linens, we slept even better than we do at home. read more

Incredibly relaxing weekend

Coolest little Joint

This is the coolest little joint! Stayed here for 3 nights in February. Perfect summer days outside, perfect Daylesford nights with the inside wood fire crackling away. Glass of wine in hand, this house is styled really well and has everything you could possibly need to relax! The owner goes above and beyond by leaving local treats throughout the house for guests as well, great surprise. Will 100% recommend to others

We had no idea how extraordinary the house was!

September 2019 I had the pleasure of spending my hens night with my girlfriends at the Mayfair in Daylesford. We had no idea how extraordinary the house was. We had plans to go out but instead played in the house all night. The dramatic feeling of the red velvet curtains, cathedral ceilings and plenty of grand rooms to roam, chat, sing and dance in was so much fun. Being so close to everything in town allowed us the flexibility to wander in and out without having to plan drivers. The Mayfair totally exceeded all of our expectations and it will be a weekend we will treasure forever. read more

Sharon & Graham, Parkville

August 2019 When we were considering listing our property on the holiday rental market, we checked out several rental agents and felt rather disheartened until the day we met Brendan and Troy. Their hands-on, thoroughly professional yet easy-going approach instantly made us feel our property was going to be managed very well. And, nearly a year down the track, this has absolutely been the case. Their pro-active approach towards both maintaining our property as well as generating rentals while just being downright nice Gents to deal with means I would thoroughly recommend Daylesford Country Retreats to anyone seeking a property manager in the area.

Di, Kingston

Daylesford Country Retreats took over the management of my house in Daylesford at the start of 2018. Since that time the property has been remarketed, new fantastic photos taken and with a 2018 approach to advertising my house is now taking bookings that I never had before. This includes longer night stays and for the first time in ten years, during the week bookings. This has allowed me to employ a cleaner. I think the versatile approach that Troy and Brendan have and their ‘easy to deal with nature’ makes all this possible. I particularly like that they both are “attune“ to the ever changing requirements of advertising in such a saturated market and have a flair for what works. This has really put my house on the map and as a result much better bookings have been achieved

Peter & Barbara, Melbourne

We first met Brendan and Troy earlier this year, 2018, during our search for a new property management team to take over the management of our property in Hepburn Springs. We had previously been disappointed with another agency, so we may have been a little demanding in our search for a new local agent who would both care for and market our property to its full potential. Brendan and Troy have both lived up to and exceeded all our hopes and expectations and we are extremely happy with their performances in both areas of care and marketing. All our requests concerning the property, have been met in a timely and efficient manner. They have also been very easy to deal with and have excellent communication skills. Since we live in Melbourne, it is sometimes difficult for us to attend to problems which have arisen at the property and they have been very understanding of our needs and prepared to deal with all problems in a completely professional manner. We have no hesitation in recommending the exceptional services of Daylesford Country Retreats as agents to others.

Nicole & Dale, Preston

Brendan & Troy from Daylesford Country Retreats have been nothing but accommodating in setting up, maintaining and managing our property. As we don’t live in Daylesford, we rely on them to resolve everything for us, and we couldn’t be happier with their attention to detail and the service they provide.

Glen & Peter, Seddon

Troy and Brendan from Daylesford Country Retreats have removed all hurdles in creating a successful holiday rental for us. The “complete management” hands on approach affords us, the property owners to relax and benefit from their expert guidance and experience. Nothing too small or large is a problem and always delivered with efficiency, friendliness and satisfaction. Their suggestions always improve the value of the house and underpin the enjoyment of our guests. The success of our holiday investment is driven by Daylesford Country Retreats without whom we would simply have a fantastic house and little financial return. Their local knowledge and involvement in the community make it seamless to operate within. We can’t wait to take on another property, so they can run it as well.

Darren & Warwick, Hobart

Dealing with Troy at Dayburn Property Management has been both a pleasure and a reassurance. Being interstate it was reassuring to know that Troy was nearby and able to respond to issues, could keep an eye on our property and act in our interests when dealing with guests and our support staff. Nothing was ever too much for Troy during the recent sale of our house. He was always happy to step in and ensure that what was needed got done! I would highly recommend Troy and Dayburn Property Management to anyone who needs their holiday homes managed and cared for.

Terry, Elsternwick

Letting my property for others to enjoy has always been a dream of mine, but it all seemed too hard to arrange for myself. Daylesford Country Retreats have taken the frustration and stress away from the process of letting. The team at Daylesford Country Retreats have provided me with very helpful advice, followed up and carried out and responded to all the enquiries I made. The communication between us has been prompt and efficient. The attention to detail is appreciated in ensuring my property is well presented and meets the needs of our customers. Daylesford Country Retreats customer service is exceptional and they are always willing to go that extra mile to make my experience as a landlord stress free and for the customer to enjoy a comfortable and memorable stay. Daylesford Country Retreats professionalism certainly sets a standard that many other property managers could aspire to. Well Done Brendan and Troy. I would have no hesitation in recommending Daylesford Country Retreats as property managers to other prospective owners.

Denise, Daylesford

Since making the decision to place my property with Daylesford Country Retreats, I have appreciated the genuine interest shown by Troy and Brendan in ensuring the best possible outcomes for me as the owner, and most importantly, for guests. Daylesford Country Retreats has established a high standard of management with the aim of making bookings as smooth and uncomplicated as possible. Every consideration is extended to guests and assistance is prompt, friendly and courteous. I feel reassured that my property is cared for in a professional manner and would not hesitate in recommending Daylesford Country Retreats as an agency of utmost integrity.

Two bathrooms a Spa Bath and Pool

Tennis court on site, as well as a basketball hoop

Such a wonderful little place to spend a weekend away in Daylesford. We were a group of 5 girls and found the space more than big enough for us all. Everything we needed was provided (linen, towels, shower gel, shampoo, conditioner, cleaning supplies, EVERYTHING) and communication from the hosts was second to none. The location is super close to the main strip, but far enough to feel like there’s no one else around you. A great little surprise was the tennis court on site, as well as a basketball hoop – we had so much fun having a few games of both. We can not fault our experience, nor can we thank you more for everything. We can’t wait to come back and see more of Daylesford. xo

A truly special place.

Shillings and Pence is truly a special spot in Victoria and our idea of the perfect weekend getaway. Nestled in beautiful and quaint Bullarto, we felt secluded from the world, yet the accommodation is only 10 minutes from the heart of Daylesford. The accommodation is as lovely as advertised, but it’s the thoughtful amenities and treats that made our weekend extra special. Complementary wine and beautiful toiletries are just a few of the many luxurious amenities. Local guides and information are also supplied to catch you up on everything the area has to offer. We did not want for during our stay, it was wonderful and we will definitely be back! read more

Incredible attention to detail

We spent 3 nights at this property and loved it. What a well thought out, well appointed, clean and inviting space. The attention to detail, made this property a pleasure to stay in. We managed a couple of walks through the forest at the rear of the property, but mostly stayed warm indoors and watched the snow fall on the wintery August weekend we had. An easy drive to Daylesford and a very quiet and peaceful location. The property will only improve when some of the newly planted trees and shrubs mature. Highly recommended. read more

A stylish stunning home.

What a stunning property. Absolutely stylish with all of the extra touches to make it feel like a home. Wouldn’t have better if I was at a hotel and would stay here again.

This great little studio is in the perfect location for a quick trip to Daylesford. You can walk to everything from this location including around the lake. We will stay here again

I loved the attention to detail and quirky features

We spent four wonderful nights at Viola Cottage and had a wonderful time. We arrived with 2 dogs in tow ready for some R and R. I loved the attention to detail and all the quirky features of the cottage. I improved and extended myself by reading such a wide variety of literature on the bookshelves. It was like having a library! Not to mention all the DVDs. Every room was heated independently while the open fire in the lounge was provided with stacks of firewood, and more importantly, firestarters! No detail was overlooked, both inside and out. We’ll definitely be back!

Perfect location with the house nestled amongst the trees

We absolutely loved our stay at Viola. The house was gorgeous and homely with all our tea coffee milk etc. Location was perfect and with the house nestled amongst the trees, we felt like we were in another world. So relaxing and peaceful. Thank you Troy and Brendan for creating such a beautiful experience.

Love the garden space

We had a wonderful stay. The accommodation was clean, cosy, private and great value for money. We were able to chill out and relax, as well as drive the short distance to the centre of town, when we felt like getting out and about. Troy and Brendan provided us with our privacy, however were quick to respond if there was anything we needed. We would definitely return. Loved the secret garden.

Great modern room

Great modern room with everything you need for a relaxing stay away. Cool bathroom and great little garden.

The secret garden adds a perfect touch

We loved our stay! The place was super clean, very cozy and well decorated. It is very conveniently located to the local shopping areas, and the secret garden was a perfect touch that added an element of privacy to enjoying the outdoors

The space was beautifully decorated

My partner and I stayed at Troy and Brendan’s place for a 2 night for a midweek stay. The space was immaculately cleaned and we had everything we could possibly need for a night or two away. They had a nespresso coffee machine and a great selection of tea. We were both surprised with the amount of amenities that were included considering the space did not have a kitchen. There was plenty of cutlery, mugs, plates and glasses and even a toaster if you wanted to have a breakfast there. The space was beautifully decorated which made the property feel very home-like and welcoming. The bathroom was luxurious and the Foxtel was a nice added bonus. Thank you for a great stay!

Such a beautiful place

Such a beautiful place and the bath was exactly as hoped, WOW! Ideal city escape. Really enjoyed our stay. Thanks again.

The bed is very comfortable and the soaker tub was lovely

Incredible stay! Definitely a must stay. This is stylish, comfortable, elegant, clean and the little touches were very much appreciated. The bed is very comfortable and the soaker tub was lovely. A modern place in amongst nature was just lovely.

Beautiful large bath and shower

Very enjoyable quiet place to spend a weekend or few days. cosy, inviting, well set out, comfort, decor, all great touches like xmas decorations on the front door and a little xmas tree inside. Lots of reading matter. Lovely touches throughout. Beautiful large bath and shower. Just great, well done to the owners.

Gorgeous Daylesford property

Gorgeous Daylesford property with beautifully styled décor on the edge of the forest. Was an absolute pleasure staying there!

Faultless home with stunning views.

Thank you for such a wonderful stay! We couldn’t fault the place. We loved the homely feel and great character you have given to the home. We were very pleased with the cleanliness of the place as well as the books, games and art. All spaces were carefully designed and maintained which added good value to the home. We loved the coffee machine and teas that were left for us and the treats in the cupboard and fridge. We didn’t want to leave.

Amazing bed, slept for hours

Haiku was more than we expected. Great location well equipped and quiet. Amazing bed, slept like a log. I thought it was great value and highly recommend for a romantic get away. Cheers Luke and Bass.

Wonderful accommodation

This was the most wonderful accommodation. It was so lovely and there were so many kind, warm touches to the house – like coffee pods, DVD’s and tons of blankets – to make the stay that much more comfortable and enjoyable.

Loved the corner spa

Lovely place to stay.. a short drive or about a 20 minute walk from the centre of Daylesford. It made us feel relaxed from the moment we walked in. Great house and wonderful nearby gardens to go wandering in. Very enjoyable and highly recommended. Loved the corner spa.

Beautiful relaxing space.

Beautiful relaxing space. This house is a lovely space with great furnishings, nice kitchen and comfy beds with quality linen. The house felt really clean and new, allowing us to relax and enjoy our stay in Daylesford. There is great wifi, 2 TVs, good speakers and a gas fire as well as a great timber deck with a pretty view. We loved our stay in this beautiful house. I definitely recommend it to others.

Excellent facilities

Great amenities. Excellent facilities. Terrific hosts. Spotlessly clean. Open plan living and the two bathrooms really suited our needs.

Well appointed, tastefully decorated.

One of the reasons we chose Delfryn was its proximity to everything. We were able to virtually have a car free weekend. It is less than a 5 min walk to town and just about everything else. The last night we dined at The Lakehouse and even that was only 15 mins walk. The house was very well appointed, tastefully decorated and very clean. It had everything we needed, including a coffee pod machine and a gas fire place. The weather was quite cool when we arrived so it was lovely to have a warm place to welcome us. The hosts have also made it very easy to check in and out. We would definitely recommend Delfryn for couple or singles

Spacious and spotless.

We had an amazing time at your beautiful property. We found it very welcoming with lights and heating on plus a bottle of wine on our arrival. The home is very spacious with large bathrooms and was spotless and well appointed. I would definitely return and happily recommend this property to family and friends. Communication was excellent and very timely.

Gorgeous accommodation

Our stay was just beautiful. Gorgeous accommodation with beautiful little touches here and there. Comfortable and cozy, yet spacious, and everything we needed was right there. Close enough to the main shops, yet not right in the middle of it, so it was peaceful too. Thanks again xx

Spacious with a beautiful garden.

This is just the place you need when staying in Daylesford. Gorgeous and spacious with a beautiful garden. We loved hearing the native birds and sitting out on the verandah with a glass of wine. The cottage is in a great location, walking distance to the beautiful Lake Daylesford and the main street. We can’t wait to come back!

Warm and cozy

This cottage is truly beautiful! Fantastic location – walking distance to the Main Street of Daylesford and also to the beautiful Lake. The hosts were amazing to deal with and were very accommodating throughout our stay. The cottage is styled immaculately and feels so warm and cozy. It’s a truly stunning place to stay and we will certainly be back!.

Incredible garden.

This is a special place for nature lovers. Ken’s garden is wonderful and the home has his architects flair all over it. Simple spectacular.

Lake Daylesford within a 5 minute walking distance

The location was excellent – loved having Lake Daylesford within a 5 minute walking distance! The house was exceptionally clean, thoughtful luxurious amenities (spa bath, amazing wood fire! etc), gorgeous garden to be out in and nice, quiet location with a sense of space from the neighbours and busy of the town. Fantastic region in general which we look forward to coming back for

Quirky, quaint and charming!

Burrall Lodge was as quirky, quaint and charming as the wonderful photos depict. The accommodation was impeccably clean and had all the conveniences we could have hoped for. The property itself was perfectly manicured and the gardens were especially beautiful. A very short walk out from the garden, through the wilderness, leads you to the lake. Perfect for early rises and walkers like myself. Burral Lodge felt secluded and private being only a stones throw from the town centre. Would love to come back in the future.

Beautiful accommodation! We will be back!

Beautifully appointed, wonderful home. The aircon was perfect, we loved all the furnishings and the kitchen. The children were very comfortable and loved their part of the house. We enjoyed the use of the BBQ on the decking. We felt secure and had privacy. The compendium was very informative and very useful – this is the type of information that should be in the app. The bottle of wine was a lovely touch, thank you. The property managers Brendan and Troy were fantastic to deal with and so very helpful.

Brilliant Property!

We recently stayed at Arenas North and we were very impressed with this fabulous brand new home! Love the retro feel, the fireplace, and all the little extras that you couldn’t possibly need. Very comfy bed too! It was a perfect spontaneous weekend getaway with our teen and puppies! Thank you! read more

Excellent location, dog friendly. Easy walk to town.

Great place to stay, excellent location, teen friendly, dog friendly! Easy walk to town. Almost new house, enough room on the couch to hold 2 adults and 2 teens!! Simple things like when cooking the knives were sharp!! We bought the dog along and she had a great time too. Management were great when my son left his wallet on the bed, they found it and sent it back within s couple of days.

A fantastic modern home

A beautiful home, tastefully decorated and very comfortable. A fantastic central location and it was so nice and warm in the house when we arrived, which was really appreciated as it was a very cold weekend. Gorgeous property and so many thoughtful touches.
