Heritage Luxury in the Heart of Bendigo
We loved our stay at Madeleine’s place, we were able to take some photos in the stunning back yard before heading off to our wedding. Great space to entertain, quiet, comfortable and in a great location. Highly recommend!

Bella Vista Bendigo ~ heated pool, outdoor fire
Welcome homely feel. Well appointed. Very responsive. Delicious, generous platter upon arrival plus heating and lights on. Much appreciated on a wet, cold winters night. We enjoyed our stay over the long weekend.

Gold Dust Hepburn - Swimming Pool & Valley Views!
We had a very relaxing time at Sheree's place. A very peaceful area with a lovely view over a large gully. Lots of room and comfy beds, it's also close to the local shops and cafe's in Hepburn and only a five minutes drive to Daylesford. Highly recommended Mark and Zoe

Porcupine Country Retreat Ten Mins from Daylesford
Nigel's place was fantastic. Everything about the property was great. Very clean and everything worked perfectly. The view across the paddock was great and the kids had an amazing time exploring the property and trying to spot the kangaroos. We took our telescopes with us and the night star gazing was one of the best we've seen. Highly recommend.

Villa Monte Lago - Pool, Jaccuzi and Sauna!
Fantastic place to stay, we just keep coming back :)

Cambridge House, Bendigo
Was a lovely location and easy accessibility to shops and centre of town. House was clean and well presented. 10/10. Simon is communicative and good to talk too

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!

Vale Hill Barn ~ Daylesford Region ~ Iconic
Located at an incredible Goldfields property steeped in history. Beautiful scenery. The barn is a wonderful space to settle in with a cup of tea and a book during the colder months. Slept like a log in peace and quiet. Wandering the expansive garden when the sun came out was a highlight. The hosts were very responsive and kindly provided an extra heater when we had a minor issue with the split system air conditioner.

Janaza Boutique Retreat, Halls Gap.
What a lovely place to stay! Located in the beautiful Halls Gap, close to the township and local amenities. Magnificent outdoor area which we were itching to sit on and enjoy the tranquility but Mother Nature had other ideas. None the less we had an enjoyable stay. Accomodation was neat and tidy and provided for all our needs.

Rosea Cottage, Ararat, Victoria
Great place to stay , very clean, comfortable and homely. Great communication from hosts. I would recommend staying here next time you visit Ararat. 5 mins drive to main town but in a nice quiet location

Surprising, ‘Artisan’ Ballarat
We had a wonderful weekend! John ensured the place was warm and cosy for our arrival. Location was perfect for us to get to our matches and come back to enjoy the house and relax. We would definitely stay again.

Myrtle Cottage
I had such a wonderful stay at this Airbnb! The place was exactly as described, clean, comfortable and beautifully styled. It had everything my friends and I needed for a relaxing and enjoyable visit and the attention to detail really stood out. Mandy was incredibly friendly and responsive. The location was quiet and peaceful, but still close to everything we needed. We genuinely didn’t want to leave and would absolutely stay here again in a heartbeat. Highly recommend!

The Nissen
We loved our stay at Debs place. It was such a funky space and so cosy having the fireplace. All very neat and tidy with welcoming touches. Easy walk in to town and to The Mill for fun shopping. The beds were comfy and the neighbourhood peaceful and quiet. Just what we needed for a sisters getaway.

Harvest Cottage
I would highly recommend Cath’s place for anyone looking for a cozy stay in the area. The property was delightful, the cottage completely charming and equipped with every amenity you could possibly need! This was one of the most well kept and thoughtfully designed Airbnbs I’ve stayed at. On top of this, Cath is so friendly, helpful and very welcoming!

The Mountain House Lux Modern, Warm + Comfy
Naomi's house is a great way to visit Halls Gap especially with a dog. The house is large and clean, and the backyard for the dog is very secure. The location is very convenient to everything you need and close to the walking path that connects many parts of the area.

Sunshine Cottage
Was a good place which was well furnished. More heaters would have been great for the chilly winter weather but was overall a great place as a stepping stone to the Grampians.

Small Scale Stays - 1A Couples Retreat
Paula was an outstanding host. Extremely responsive and her place was as beautifully as presented in the advertisement. An easy stroll to Halls Gap and a warm/cosy place to relax after exploring. We’ve had such a memorable trip we’re planning our next stay at Paula’s place!

Houses of Ripley - Greenleaf - 3+ Night Discounts
Wow, this place is quite incredible - the photos do not do it justice. Every aspect has been thought out and creates an amazing warm and inviting space. You feel instantly relax as soon as you enter the gates into a perfectly manicured garden and then once you open the front doors you know you’re in for a treat. You won’t be disappointed by booking this home. We will all be back.

Dunkeld House: Beautiful Country Retreat
Jackie’s place is a beautiful, peaceful and picturesque haven in Dunkeld. It is very tastefully decorated and spotlessly clean. We also found all our requirements were at our fingertips! The heating and lighting automatically coming on in was handy but we found the need to leave fans on a bit confusing? The Netflix access was really appreciated too. Just to echo the reviews of other guests the bedding and mattress were superb- even when compared to our bed at home.🏠 We highly recommend it for other travellers.

Comfort Central
Lovely spot!

Barkly Miners Cottage Ararat
A cute little cottage close to great hiking spots. It was a cold night so appreciative of the good heating which made for a cosy spot to hang out with friends.

Shadows | Architectural Retreat in Town Heart
We had the most amazing time. Sam was so helpful and accomodating, left us a few goodies to indulge in and has a beautiful apartment. We couldn’t of had a better time

Wilde House
Amazing stay at Wilde House! Super spacious and cozy home, great for a group of couples or a family, especially if you’re interested in exploring the Grampians National Park - only about 35 mins away. Declan was super helpful, responsive and friendly. Would recommend!

On 80 Acres Off-grid lux overlooking the Grampians
We loved our second stay at Boulder's, this is a magnificently scenic area, and a beautiful house on a quiet, well-maintained property. Zane was a fantastic host, going above and beyond to ensure that we had plenty of power and were enjoying our stay despite the lack of nice weather!
