Pet-friendly holiday rentals in Mount Alexander Shire

We were lucky enough to find Mia Mia while we were waiting to move into our new house so we had a lengthy stay. It was lovely to have such a homely place that was peaceful and comfortable. Fire for the colder nights, very comfortable beds, functional bathrooms, kitchen and laundry and we particularly enjoyed all the bird life around the home. A very easy walk into town to grab the necessities, a coffee or a pub meal. Thank you so much for your hospitality Bronwyn and Kieran.

5/5 Stars We had an absolutely serene stay at this stunning property! The house is exquisitely decorated and perfectly designed, making it the ideal retreat. The highlight of our stay was undoubtedly the breathtaking sunrises and sunsets, which we enjoyed with a cup of coffee or a glass of wine while watching the adorable alpacas roam. The property's peaceful atmosphere and picturesque views are perfectly balanced by its proximity to Daylesford town, just a 10-15 minute drive away. We would love to return to this little slice of heaven and highly recommend it to anyone seeking a relaxing getaway. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us!"

We had a pleasant stay at Quiet Country Retreat, located right at the foot of Mount Alexander. The accommodation is great for a couple and has a separate living room and fully equiped kitchen. The verandah is a great place to relax with abundant bird sounds. Castlemaine is just a short drive away and has lots of food options.

Kate’s place was very suitable for our extended family with a large living room and outdoor space.,The location is very good and we had Avery comfortable stay

A beautiful stay with family at this impressive and homely house. Pascale was a great host, the house was exactly as described and the location was amazing. Short walk into town. Highly recommend

Great place for our crew to stay whilst working at local schools. Would highly recommend!

Enjoyed our stay very much. Lovely clean and cosy home. Enjoyed sitting by the fire place especially on the cold nights. Very peaceful and quiet surroundings. We'll certainly stay here again. Thank you Alex.

Isabella's place is lovely. As the second time I have stayed at this location, it was great to be back and be able to sit out on the verandah again and take in the bird life and the sounds of the breeze in the trees. The house is well equipped and a lovely getaway from the city.

We returned for another gorgeous mini break and love this extraordinary house and rural outlook with dog friendly spaces. Short drive to great local cafe ☕️ and pub and a bit further for wineries walking trails and country gifts John is a wonderful host.

Beautiful location and a charming cottage along with very helpful caretakers allowed for a fantastic stay. Our kids were never bored with so much for them to do on the property, from the games room to the grassy areas and even a river for some fishing, they were well entertained. Very tranquil setting, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would highly recommended the cottage to both couples and families.

The property was fantastic—exactly as described. The spacious grounds and beautiful rose garden were perfect for walks, and the vineyard made a stunning backdrop for sunrises. Kids loved the games room, the pool, and having Netflix and YouTube on the TV. The kitchen was spotless and well-stocked. We also enjoyed spotting lots of kangaroos. Overall, a very relaxing and enjoyable stay.

Taradale House is the best place to unwind and relax from the city's hustle and bustle of everyday life. We saw blue wrens, rosellas, cockatoos and kangaroos around the property as we scrolled through this scenic location breathing in the fresh country air. The games room kept our son entertained and we enjoyed a game of pool as a family. Skye was always available to help with any queries or requests which she attended to promptly. Andy was similarly helpful and easy to communicate with. Highly recommend this holiday accommodation site to all.

We absolutely loved staying at Richards oasis in Castlemaine. Richard was so welcoming, generous and friendly and went above and beyond to make out stay enjoyable. Also loved the friendliness (and cuteness) of four legged friend Frankie. would love to stay here again a beautiful property and building and delightful hosts.

Great place in a great location for exploring the Goldfields. Central to most places whatever you want to do and see with everything you need when you are not seeing and doing

Our stay at Marks place was excellent, from easy check, home exactly as described lovely little private court yard, house was very neat and clean .Mark and Di were very friendly and helpful..we really appreciate our time spent at Marks place.. we will return.

The cottage is a great place for time away with friends. It's in a peaceful and scenic location but still close to several interesting locations to explore.

We loved it, brought our small dog. Fantastic place to stay, Valerie was very helpful and the house was well stocked with some food and drink staples which was much appreciated. The neighbours were very friendly.

We had 3 enjoyable nights at Kathy’s property. The building is a generous size, light filled, relaxing and comfortable. Amenities were good and the use of the BBQ along with the appliances inside enabled us to prepare simple meals. The provisions provided were good quality and enjoyable. The location outside Castlemaine was an easy drive and its proximity to the extensive walking trails of the heritage gold precinct worked well for us.

We had such a wonderful stay at this beautiful and spacious home. The house was spotless, comfortable, and had more than enough space for everyone to relax and enjoy themselves. Even though it rained throughout our stay, the kids had plenty to do as the house came with so many games and toys to keep them busy. Alix was very responsive and friendly and directions to get into the place were super easy. The location was perfect for us too. I have a feeling we will be back again ( when the weather is nicer) so we can explore the town a little better. And without a doubt, we will be looking into booking this place again! Thank you Alix for being an amazing host.

very clean and complete accommodation. everything you need is present. attentive host. excellent bed. we had a great stay here.

Kathy's place is wonderful. Plenty of yard space for the dogs with some farmyard animals. The welcome basket and platter of tasty foodstuffs was lovely. Thanks Kathy!

Great stay! Lovely peaceful home with a great host. Would recommend

We had a lovely stay at Todd’s cottage. Walking distance from the station, to shops, The Mill and the Botanic Gardens, everything we needed was walking distance. Todd made the courtyard secure for our escape artist dog and we could leave her there without worry. Loved the cottage’s old characteristics. Thanks for a great stay.

The stay we had at Susan’s was great. The place was exactly what we were looking for and I would stay again. Everything was neat and tidy on entry and we had no problems getting into the property. Thank you
