Comfy Hepburn house

Very convenient location, close to Daylesford main street. Lovely to open the door to well lit, warm house, with music playing. Complimentary wine and biscuits, a nice touch. Plenty of room, with 4 bdrooms. The backyard is beautiful and the outdoor seating area is very generous. Good kitchen, has everything you need. We were very happy with our choice of accommodation.

Great Family Getaway

Stayed with my family for weekend to celebrate my 60th birthday. 4 couples. Design of the house means that the bedrooms are insulated from the living room via corridors so noise wasn't an issue. The young ones slept down one end & oldies up the front. Warm & cosy living area. Lovely back yard and decking space. My little dog loved sniffing around the big backyard. Great weekend had by all.

Wonderful place to stay and relax

We liked the property and arrangements very much! Management is very supportive. Only thing I was not happy that why 20$ extra bucks were cut from the card without informing. It should be returned. Also, wondering that why we were not having access to the garage as it's part of the property.

huge garden and deck, comfortable inside

It was a very hot weekend, and our only complaint was that there were no ceiling fans in bedrooms (or air conditioning vents). Apart from that, fantastic all round.

Thank you we will look into getting ceiling fans. We generally get so few hot nights in Daylesford.

A relaxed weekend!

Absolutely lovely stay for the four of us and our 4 little dogs who loved the garden. The garden is stunning with lovely trees and we loved the lavender path. The house is beautiful and well-presented with all the necessary amenities. The bedrooms/beds were very comfortable. Perfect setup for 4 single women. Just a few things for improvement: There were no keys for the second door on the back patio Toilet roll broken in the ensuite Lights in the front entrance outside doesn't work The locks for the front door and the back patio is very loose. The decking rail near to the garage is loose. Just tiny maintenance stuff. Thank you again.
