Quirky best describes number 3 Stanley Road, with lots of little nooks throughout the house to sit and ponder, a wood fire adding a cosy touch. Very comfortable beds. Beechworth is the nearest to purchase food, there’s nothing in Stanley and pub not open for meals early in the week

Lovely winter stay
We enjoyed staying at this historic property. It had everything we needed to cook at home with some local produce and treats collected while exploring and the wood heater kept us warm and cosy. A one minute walk to the Stanley pub for a great hospitality and a terrific meal. Thanks for having us.

A wonderful, quaint stay in a beautiful, quiet town in a pretty cottage
We were enchanted by the lovey, artistic cottage, in the sweet, quiet tiny town of Stanley. Communication with Jen was seemless and she was responsive and accommodating. Thank you 😊
I would highly recommend this place if I didn't want it to be available next time we go 😉
