Lovely genuine old time character
2.5 / 5.0
We had an amazing 4-night stay here, the room is beautifully appointed with a lot of Edwardian charm. Very comfortable, and being able to use the fireplace added to the romantic charm! Very warm even in winter, and very conveniently located near the main street of Daylesford.

Great ambience. A lovely getaway place for a couple.
Daylesford is a walking town. It’s a decent hill but manageable. And the driveway at the Manse is steep. I stayed in an upstairs room which was lovely.

Loved the property. Really gorgeous. It was very quiet and I'm a nice close location to the main Street. I was disappointed the Jacuzzi was out of order as that, for me was the main reason I booked this particular place and was my search parameter. That should have been mentioned on the Expedia website.

Pastry or toast would have been nice with the breakfast

We've stayed here many times! It's a lovely old house with comfortable facilities and eccentric decor. The breakfast provided is generous. The shops and restaurants of Daylesford are a short walk away.

Cute little stay, clean & reasonably priced. Short walk into town. Can cope with the hand held shower over the bath, however, not really a fan of the wooden toilet!

Had a lovely stay at the Manse.. It was so cozy & the wine & chocolate was a lovely touch…
It was so central to Daylesford & I would definitely stay again..
2.0 / 5.0
A beautiful, large old home, a trip back in time in terms of its size and decor. We loved the very large and charming Plum Room, lovely decoration, view over the town, wonderfully quiet. Showering a bit messy because it's to be done with a hand held shower in a bath with no screening - as it would have been in days gone by. Mattress close to needing replacement. A few cobwebs. Parking at back of house. Helen, the manager, is very friendly and helpful.

The manse was a beautiful place to stay (we stayed 3 nights) the sumptuously decorated, our room was extremely beautiful to be in; The bed was exceptionally comfortable, the bath was gigantic, and I believe the l toilet rates a mention.. although modern plumbing was used and it was immaculately clean as everything else in the place, it was like going back in time... to understand you have to visit! Was even notified before book intime that our room was ready, great service/communication. Bottle of wine, chocolate and packet of biscuits were delightfully supplied extras. Can definitely recommend without hesitation. 👌

Apart not providing bread with breakfast food it was great and comfortable.

Furniture in Green room was stained & in need of a deep clean. The toilet does not have a conventional toilet seat, but a wooden board like a drop toilet with a hole in centre, which would be very difficult to sanitise; also it is in a small cupboard-like room with no ventilation when the door is closed. We appreciated the biscuits, chocolate, wine & breakfast supplies, but even these could not tempt us to stay the second night, even though booked & pre-paid. Dusty & not recommended for people with asthma/allergies.

The Manse is a wonderful place to stay. Daylesford is very cold in August but The Manse was cozy and well warmed despite its grand scale. There was even an open fire ready to go in our room, and the huge bathtub was wonderfully warming. The building is stylish throughout, each room decorated in a sensual individual colour theme. The welcoming gifts of chocolate, biscuits and a great red wine were appreciated. We had the whole place to ourselves for our winter midweek stay. Helen the manager was very welcoming and showed us around. We will definitely be back soon and next time will book some of the well being therapies. The brass bathtub alone would be worth it! The room featured a kitchenette and had plunger coffee, teas, fresh milk, orange juice, breakfast cereals, a microwave and all the necessary crockery and so on. Buy some locally baked bread and you are set for a scrumptious breakfast.

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.

A spacious room, decorated with old-world charm and character, in a beautiful old building. The complimentary wine and chocolates were a very nice surprise. The balcony on the first floor has a nice view over Daylesford, ideal for that relaxing glass of wine.
