Corvah House
We had a fantastic stay at Corvah House in Castlemaine with our extended family, including young children. The house was beautiful, spacious, and well-equipped, making it the perfect spot for a relaxing weekend. The highlight was definitely the pool—an absolute lifesaver on a hot weekend! With ample grass area outside too, the the kids loved it which meant we could relax too. Donna was an excellent host—her communication was fantastic, making everything smooth and stress-free. We’d highly recommend Corvah House to anyone looking for a comfortable and enjoyable stay in Castlemaine.

This is the second time my friends and I have stayed here and my heart is just so full being able to spend time with my loved one in such a beautiful house in the most beautiful location.

Whitefield House Newstead Victoria
Great house, very cosy, lots of spaces for the kids to play, and Julie was so kind to drop over some extra toys for the kids which they loved. We also loved how easy it was to access the walking tracks for the kids on their bikes. We will stay again for sure!

Lydia's place was great. Very clean and comfortable. Comfy beds. It has everything you need and more. Second time we have stayed here, and would definitely stay again. Highly recommend this property.

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

The Mia Mia, Newstead
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.

Casa Linda - in the heart of Daylesford
Fuss free check in to this comfortable cottage and easy walk to shops and restaurants (can recommend Taj Mahal, Cliffy’s, Koukla and La Luna). Short drive to Hepburn Springs and Castlemaine for more adventures. Had a blast playing Trivial Pursuit and enjoyed breakfast on the verandah and reading a magazine in the private backyard. Carlos provided information before check in re heating (there was ample for cosy cooler nights) and appliance use. Highly recommend the home and host. Thanks Carlos!
