It was freezing cold when we arrived but the heating was on ready for us and the fireplaces ready to light. Once the house warmed it remained comfortable inside. There were lots of lovely personal touches around the home, including fresh flowers, chocolates and wine.😀 our beds were comfortable and everything was clean and in good condition.
I would love to return one day, such a pretty area. It was lovely to meet our host Adele.

Fabulous property - multiple fireplaces all stacked and ready to go. Well-appointed in terms of those small touches that may a stay far more enjoyable - tea, coffee, condiments etc. all provided.
Would highly recommend!

This is a great stay. Lovely historic homestead amongst expansive beautiful gardens in peaceful surrounds. The house is well equipped with everything you need. Adele, the host, was very welcoming and accomodating. Lots of small towns and wineries nearby and lots of things to do. Close to Woodend, Macedon, Hanging Rock, Kyneton which we visited. Well worth a visit and highly recommended.

This was our second stay at the property and it was every bit as good as the first stay. The home is enchanting. The old homestead has an authentic period feel with furnishings that are both comfortable and in keeping with the historic nature of the property. There are gorgeous quirky surprises around every corner. The gardens are magnificent with lots of different spaces to explore. Adele and Ross are fabulous hosts. The communication was excellent and they go out of their way to ensure everything you might need during the stay is provided. Thank you so much Adele for making our school reunion amazing.

Our 2nd stay at The Manse June 2022 was just as 'warm' as our first. A beautiful ambience,all amenities we needed, and the beds just so comfortable. Our host, Adele, is so welcoming, without being intrusive. We four mature age sisters enjoyed our stay very much.

The Manse provided us with a lovely relaxing weekend away. We spent our time sitting around either of the open fires, cooking and chatting. The perfect place to do this! Adele is an amazing host and made everything so easy!

Beautifully presented home with everything you need for a very comfortable stay away.

The property was even better than promised in the listing. Set in beautiful countryside with stunning views, the house maintained its vintage atmosphere with sacrificing modern creature comforts. The host was a pleasure to deal with, and my only complaint is that we should have made a long booking. Will be returning soon.

A wonderful character home that was cozy and warm. Very clean, loved that the linen and towels are provided and a well stocked kitchen.
Adele is a great host who welcomed us and gave us history of the home on arrival, along with some Easter treats and a bottle of wine.
Would stay again, thank you Adele

We needed a relaxing, quiet getaway for a few days and found it here.
Reading and just enjoying the garden. We hadn’t seen so many butterflies before and it made it just magical.
Thank you Adele. A beautiful short break.

Thank you Adele for sharing you magnificent historic homestead with us, we have enjoyed every second of this beautiful place:
The well appointed kitchen, the lovely bedrooms, cozy lounges, sunny spa room and the fireplaces.
The gardens and birds and even the
rabbits! The generous provisions were very welcome and your personal touches appreciated.
We travelled from Perth for the Nick Cave concert (which was awesome) and we received so much more by staying here
A very spiritual expenince.
Thank you!

The Manse is an amazing property. Built in 1861 it has so much history and authentic features. Decorated beautifully to match the era. Lots of interesting little artistic treasures to discover around the house and garden. The gardens are lush and peaceful and abounding with bird and wildlife. Lots of interesting nooks and crannies to read a book or sip a glass of wine with friends and family.

The stay at the Manse was everything I could have asked for, for our group. The property was stunning, each detail well planned out. The property is everything that the photos show and so much more! Adele, the host, was so lovely. Everyone felt so comfortable and relaxed, surrounded by the beauty of the property. I will definitely be a return guest. Thank you Adele.

Christmas in winter
This was a fantastic house for our group of six to celebrate Christmas in winter. The rooms were spacious, the kitchen and dining area well equipped for our special dinner and the atmosphere cosy with wood fires. We enjoyed visiting the farmer's market in Lancefield on Saturday morning and walks at Woodend and Macedon. A great choice not far from Melbourne. Thanks Adele.

Idyllic Retreat
Loved every bit of the house and garden, it suited our 4 generation family group beautifully. Adele is the perfect host, she went above and beyond for us which was very much appreciated in this Covid era that we now live in. We would love to return.
Thank you for some wonderful memories.

A wonderful and relaxing stay
We loved our 4 night break at this immaculate historical home in Lancefield. The house provided everything you could need for a peaceful stay and had beautiful period fittings and furnishings. The bedrooms were spacious with very comfortable bedding, and we made good use of the full sized kitchen and the large dining room with fireplace.
The garden is lovely with lots of different nooks for relaxing in, and the enclosed courtyard is perfect for settling in with a good book. The verandah is around 3 sides at the front of the house and was great for an afternoon drink after a long day. The house was the perfect base for travelling around the Goldfields region and is only 1 hour from the city.
Our host met us when we arrived and provided a detailed tour of the house, and was very helpful and quick to respond to any queries. We'd love to come back again.

Perfect spot for our retreat
The Manse was exactly what we needed for our retreat. Enough space for us all, wi fi so as to connect with leaders elsewhere around Australia. Rooms are super comfy and warm. Gardens are lovely to sit and walk in. Great spots to eat at in local towns, and buy grocery supplies.
We had to delay our trip twice. Adele was able to do that with no difficulty nor fuss.

A wonderful relaxing escape!
The property was better than advertised! It ticked all the boxes for hosting my 50th birthday gathering with friends from Melbourne and interstate. Close to the airport, large enough for us all, comfy and warm beds, great fireplaces, well stocked kitchen, gorgeous grounds to wander around and sit in. Adele was a fabulous host who met us on arrival and promptly answered any queries. I look forward to staying at this property again for other group events.
