Holiday houses in Dunolly

The place was welcoming, spotlessly clean, well-equipped, and comfortable. This was important because we intended to stay in a lot and enjoy home cooked meals. The place felt homely and, with some basic provisions, we could settle in right away. The kitchen crockery, pots, pans etc were all clean and in excellent condition. There was plenty of choice for lounging and dining areas, with an indoor or more outdoor feel, and the surrounding natural landscape made for a beautiful and peaceful escape. Loved the outdoor swing between the tall trees which invited you to go outside. The seating around the grand firepit was excellent with beautiful decorative lighting. When the outdoor lights were off, we enjoyed expansive views of the Milky Way, by the fire. Additionally, we thought the host's dining recommendations in Ballarat and Daylesford were excellent, as was his communication. The getaway was just what we'd had in mind.

This was our third time staying here and there’s a reason we keep coming back! It’s gorgeous and so peaceful - would definitely recommend.

Enjoyed every minute of our stay Beautiful view Peaceful and lots of privacy We were lucky enough to have both warm and cold weather So we got to enjoy the fireplace and pizza oven and fire pit The animals were fun even when the lamas were spitting on us!!! We saw eagles kangaroos and even deer and foxes so was exciting The house was very well equipped and we had everything we needed to use. Even home made treats which was lovely We will definitely stay here again Carolyn

Great location and amenities, highly recommended

Absolutely 5 stars! The photos really don’t do this place justice—even after reading that in other reviews, I was still genuinely surprised by how beautiful it was. The pantry was well stocked, with thoughtful items that seemed to have been left behind by generous guests—so we added a little something too. The fireplace was all set up, which made it super easy to get started and added a cozy touch. The back balcony was the perfect spot for breakfast, with a beautiful view while watching our dog run around the yard. Dog bowls were even provided! Highly recommended

Peaceful and private location with everything you need within a 15 minute drive. There are several different areas to hang out in and around the house, offering space for large groups of guests. You can't beat the view from the lounge room though! Kitchen was well stocked with crockery and utensils and basic condiments. Overall, excellent spot for large family or friend gatherings. Just note the extra charges for additional guests/bedrooms. Lucy was very responsive and helpful. Plenty of instruction and information provided prior to and during the stay.

Great place to stay. we were a family with two teenagers and plenty of room. nice outside area on the deck. everything is there that is needed. clean and comfortable, responsive and ready to help hosts.

We had such a wonderful stay at Olivia’s place! The home was spotlessly clean and beautifully decorated, we especially loved the floor-to-ceiling window in the master bedroom with stunning views of the lake. The spacious deck was perfect for relaxing, and we were lucky enough to enjoy both a breathtaking sunrise and moonlight reflections on the water. The kitchen was incredibly well-equipped with everything we needed, and we really appreciated the thoughtful touches, fresh free-range eggs, butter, and bread waiting for us in the fridge. Our kids absolutely loved their time on the farm. A real highlight was visiting the pet cows and bulls with Liv and feeding them carrots, such a special experience! Malmsbury town is just a short drive away, and the bakery there is a must-visit, the pies are delicious! Thank you, Liv, for an amazing weekend. We hope to return again soon!
