Excellent property with plenty of space, large bedrooms and lounge. However the induction hotplates and oven did not seem to work properly, took a long time to cook. Good bbq but stove inadequate for a 8 person house

Our group of 4 had a fabulous visit to Hillside. It was very clean and had a lovely ambience. The home is only 5 minutes from town (a flat walk which is not the case for all rentals in DayleSford!)

Lovely weekend stay
I stayed here for two nights with friends while in Daylesford. The house was as advertised, with plenty of room for our group and an excellent location just two minutes walk from the shops and restaurants. Check in was easy and the house was very well equipped. Would definitely stay again.

Lovely home, close to town
The house was exactly as described. We arrived on a freezing day, to a lovely warm home with the fireplaces already lit and the lamps on for a cosy feel. It’s close to town, great to wander in for dinner at one of the local restaurants or pick up supplies to cook in the the well equipped kitchen. 2 living areas gave our family lots of room to spread out. Thanks for a lovely week.

Hillside Daylesford
The house is as described, in a fantastic location.
The only issue we had was on check-in, where the house had not been cleaned from previous guests. This was rectified quickly by Mario, who promptly organised 3 cleaners, however it delayed check-in by approx 2 hours

Cosy house
Very cosy house we all enjoyed our time in the house. Great spot. Very squeaky wire bed in the front room ... avoid
