    Who are we?

    Based in Daylesford, Troy and Brendan moved from Melbourne in August 2013 to escape the traffic and to experience life in the country.

    Troy had a 20 year career managing award winning hotels across Melbourne. He is known to many locals through working at the Daylesford Hotel, Surly Goat and Larder Cafe. Troy has loved getting to know the locals.

    Brendan had a 25 year management career in the fast paced consumer goods industry, working with many well-known Australian brands such as Aeroplane Jelly, McCormick and Masterfoods. Brendan really values the sense of community in Daylesford.

    Brendan and Troy have always had an interest in property, buying, selling and renovating properties across Melbourne and now in Daylesford and Hepburn Springs.

    Daylesford Country Retreats provides Brendan and Troy with the opportunity to further develop their interest in property, while utilising their management and customer service skills right here in the local community.
