Lady Marmalade Daylesford, Luxurious Getaway
Lady Marmalade has quickly become a favourite for our annual girls trip. It’s cozy, close to the shops and a beautiful house. We look forward to our visit every year. James is a great host and very friendly and responsive.

Jesmondene
This is a beautiful house in the peaceful neighbourhood that has a close proximity to all you need in Daylesford e.g. supermarket and town area. We highly recommended! Andrew is also proactive and provided a clear instructions and communication for our stay.

Unique Private Outdoor Spa Retreat
We had a lovely stay. Check in was easy. It’s a cosy, clean and comfortable space. We loved all the wonderful art around the property. We also enjoyed the jacuzzi on the deck. It was a short walk into town and just around the corner from the Mill market. We could hear our neighbours easily but they weren’t there for the whole weekend.

Alkira Forget Me Not Hepburn
Very nice little house. With all that we needed. Michelle is super kind and responsive.

Zahalka House Daylesford-Boutique Holiday Home
We booked this stunning Daylesford house for our best friend’s 40th — and WOW, what a weekend! The vibes were immaculate, the house was beyond gorgeous, and we spent three days laughing, grazing, and sipping Prosecco like queens. Perfect for a girls’ getaway and milestone celebration!

Escape to luxury indulgence
Jennifer and David’s house is a fabulous place to stay in Daylesford! The house itself is modern, clean, spacious, has excellent amenity, and special bonus features including pool, spa and sauna! Communication was easy, always prompt and informative. Will be back. Highly recommend!

The Barn Daylesford
Great location, near shops and the house was so beautiful. Only issue we had was we found it difficult to get hot water despite following the instructions left. It also gets a bit hot in the rear rooms in summer but nothing a few open windows cant fix. Thanks for allowing us to have a wonderful weekend.

Ripon Cottage
We stayed in the cottage for two nights over the Ballarat Marathon weekend. It was very convenient to the town centre and very comfortable. Most importantly the cottage is dog friendly and we were able to bring our two dogs with us to stay. The beds were comfortable and the surroundings very quiet. The dishwasher wasn’t working during our stay but Sue advised us before we arrived so we weren’t caught off guard . Overall a good stay.

Viola @ Hepburn Springs
We had a great stay at Daylesford Country Retreats. The accommodation was just as described and as per the photos. The beautiful scenery around the property made our stay so peaceful. We will definitely be coming back again. Thank you for having us!

Rosey Knoll Cottage 4 bedrooms with outdoor fire.
Emma’s place was fantastic. We all fit very comfortably and location was perfect for walking to get breakfast or dinner and Emma was very helpful. Would gladly stay again :)

Piccolo Cottage - close to Hepburn and Daylesford
Great little cabin, short drive from townships of Hepburn and Dayelsford. Emma was excellent with communication.

Valley Views Daylesford - Pet Friendly
This is our second stay at Andy and Pauls place. It was just as awesome as our first stay. The place is clean, warm, comfortable and well thought out. We felt right at home within the beautiful surroundings of Daylesford.

Our place to call home
We had a great stay! The property was comfortable and well-equipped, making it ideal for our group’s work trip. The host was attentive and thoughtful, even providing extra towels, which was incredibly helpful. The location was convenient, and the amenities made our stay enjoyable and stress-free. We really appreciated the hospitality and the little touches that made us feel welcome. Would definitely recommend to others and consider staying again!

Jarli Apartment - Heart of Daylesford-Pet Friendly
Extremely comfortable apartment in a great location, just a short stroll to town and all the shops/pubs/cafes. We stayed during the Kings Birthday weekend which was cold and wet and absolutely loved the fire and how cosy it was! Would definitely recommend and will be back!

Goldfields Townhouse
We really enjoyed our stay at Shelley’s. Checkin was easy and her place was clean, comfy and homely. Our stay was very brief but Shelley’s kitchen looked really well set up for anyone looking to enjoy a longer trip.

Imperial House, Hepburn Springs
A lovely place for a girls weekend away. Four King sized beds! Great heating. Fire. View. Comfortable! Walking distance to ammenities. We will be back!

York House
Vincent’s house was such a cozy and beautiful home. It was perfect for our group of 13 adult and kids. It was in great order and very warm during the very cold weekend we stayed. You have everything you need in the house and it is very spacious. Vincent was very responsive and friendly to deal with. We’d love to be back again during the warmer months.

Cosy Cottage on Mair
The house was beautiful, even better than what we imagined from the photos. Would definitely love to visit again. Parking during daytime was an issue being on one of the busy roads in Ballarat but otherwise it was perfect.

Hibernate - Gully Views, Stone Bath, Great Spaces
It was great to arrive and find a couple of lights on incase we arrived late. The house was easy to find and the key safe was in a great location. As we walked inside the long passage had some doors running off to 3 large bedrooms and a shared bathroom, the main bedroom had an ensuite that had a very large bath tub in. The beds were soft and the linen was very clean. The house is large and has a beautiful back garden area with a large bird feeder. (take a small packet of bird seed and put in the rotating wheel). The views from the balcony are of nice bush land. The house has a very large common area and the kitchen has everything that you need. Thank you Deb for a loverly house. Warm regards Gary

Air hockey; Xbox, BBQ; Ensuite, Garage
A very comfortable stay. House was extremely clean and kitchen was very well equipped.

Bluegums Retreat - Perfect for Family and Friends
We really enjoyed our stay at Bluegums retreat, it was so cosy and peaceful and we enjoyed seeing the kangaroos out the back. Geoff ensured a smooth check in and provided lots of suggestions over the weekend. It’s only a short 5 min drive into Daylesford.

Contemporary Cottage - WIFI
Great place! Comfortable beds, beautiful bathroom. Kitchen had everything needed to prepare meals. Would book again when staying in Ballarat!
