This is a fantastic place to stay. An Edwardian mansion on the hill overlooking Daylesford and easy walking to the main strip. We stayed in the Zebra room with everything you need including real milk and real ground coffee, and an open fire. Great value and we would definitely stay here again.

Love our stay, highly recommended

Love our stay! The building itself is a beautiful historic architecture. We stayed in the Zebra room, the view was stunning overseeing the whole town. Breeze coming in from window was really nice. Fireplace and deep bathtub are also highlights of our stay. The host provided generous breakfast bits and small snacks for us in the room, it was very sweet of them! Also love the contactless check in and out, plenty of privacy for couple, We will definitely come back.

Quirky but not right for us,

We appreciated the generosity of our host & the quirky historical aspect of the building. However as an older couple, we found many factors difficult. Because we had suitcases (travelling for 3 weeks) space was a real challenge, not to mention getting the cases up the steep stairs. I’d imagined there’d be someone to assist & that we’d meet our host. The bath is definitely not for us. We decided we’re the wrong demographic to stay here.

Liked: Amenities
Disliked: Cleanliness
Extremely poor cleanliness ruined experience. Whomever made the bed must have been eating something as they did it as there were crumbs on the sheets near the pillows. No staff were present so had no one to raise issue with to get clean sheets so had to just try brush the crumbs off the sheets. Floor wasn't clean- there was a nut on the floor probably from the same source as the crumbs on bed. Some sort of sticky gum or lollie was stuck to the floor near the kitchenette. Shelf under mirror wasn't clean- had a clear mark from a water glass. The only important thing to expect from accommodation is for it to be clean.
