• Stephen (10/5): What a beautiful place to stay, the views, birds, peace and tranquillity make this very special. - Everything about Candlebark was exceptional, it exceeded our expectations and would recommend it to family and friends. There was nothing to not love about Candlebark, there are few places that we have stayed that we could make this statement about.
• Jane (10/5): Perfect quiet place to stay in nature for a break away. - Quiet & cosy set in nature Nothing

• Peter (10/5): Peace and serenity with a beautiful rural outlook. - The retreat was in a very peaceful location with sweeping views of the surrounding countryside. The birdsong from many contributors of varying sizes was wonderful. Our hosts were very helpful and thoughtful. Nothing to dislike.
• Sue (10/5): - Beautiful setting. Very comfortable. Friendly & helpful host. Interesting and scenic area, especially if you are interested in bushland plants. Native orchids and wildflowers were in bloom. Nil
• Wendy (10/5): A perfect cottage for a 4 night getaway! - Candlebark Retreat was just bliss! Fleur and Digby have thought of absolutely everything and the cottage was a perfect place to use as a base for exploring the wonderful townships around Beechworth. The birdlife in the trees around the cottage were varied and beautiful. Salty dropped by to say hello and check to see if we were settled in ok. To top off the trip the wine made onsite was perfect.. had to purchase a couple of bottles to enjoy later.
• Giulia (9/5): Clean and comfortable accommodation! - Perfect location for a country getaway
• Laura (10/5): -
• Murray (8/5): -
• Matthew (9/5): - A lovely quiet location surrounded by beautiful bush land looked after by the owners. Nothing
• Rabies52 (10/5): A quiet retreat from work & City and a base to explore Beechworth and surrounding areas - This cottage retreat is located a short scenic drive about 5km north of Beechworth just past the spectacular Woolshed Falls, on private property/vineyard with separate driveway to the cottage. The owner, Fleur advised key location and pre-heated the cottage for our arrival. The building is very roomy, equipped with everything you could possibly need and more (see photos) The hot water is hot, AC works very well, Internet is fast, bed and lounges are comfortable. Outside there is a modern BBQ, seating areas, fire pit and magnificent views. We used it to explore surrounding areas but also loved being in the cottage. We stayed 5 nights and did not want to leave! Nothing
• Nicole (10/5): Perfect, peaceful and restorative place for a break. - Beautiful and quiet bush location just outside Beechworth. Loved the cottage and views across Beechworth bush. Perfect getaway with lovely hosts. Nothing
• Lisa (10/5): Exceptional - It was in such a beautiful location. Had everything we needed to have a comfortable stay. So peaceful and relaxing.
• Radnell (10/5): Exceptional - Perfectly cosy in such a beautiful quiet spot. Has a magnificent native garden with so many native birds.
• Roger (9/5): Excellent small home away from home. - A fabulous property in a secluded location. The serenity, beautiful surrounds and bird life were the favourite features. The small home was spotless. A small, equipped, kitchen and an outside bbq enabled meal preparation. Home produced, quality, wine was sampled and purchased. When you've stayed once, you will have the desire to return. Fleur visited to make sure that all was OK. (Affable and caring). All good.
• Andrew (10/5): Exceptional -
• Kellie (10/5): Exceptional -
• Luke (10/5): Perfect getaway, genuinely full of character, but clean and uncluttered. Setting is beautiful. -
• Reid (10/5): Fabulous place for a complete rest, I would highly recommend - Loved the bush setting, birds and all round ambience I didn’t like leaving, I wish we could’ve stayed longer
• Ruth (10/5): Clean and cosy rustic cottage in a private, serene and convenient location. - The cottage was very cute, clean and totally private but only 5 minutes or so from Beechworth. The night sky was utterly amazing. Nothing it was a lovely spot to stay.
• Sally (9/5): Superb -
• Lani (10/5): Exceptional -
• Dale (10/5): Exceptional -
• Julian (9/5): Beautiful private getaway, surrounded by nature, beautiful gardens and birds. - Far enough away from the traffic, close enough to pop into town for supplies. Heaps of books to read, DVD collection was useful in wet weather. The visiting dog was adorable. Bed was very comfortable, water was clean. Heaps of seating areas under the eaves, trees, garden and a firepit for cooler times. The birdlife was lovely with golden whistlers, choughs, red browed finches, blue wrens, eastern rosellas, grey strike thrush. Slightly larger fridge would have been good, but not a problem.
• Jean (10/5): A piece of Paradise. - An exceptional experience. A beautiful cabin in a peaceful location with amazing views. A wonderful place to sit with a glass of wine and look out over the fields. Waking up to birdsong is also an additional bonus. Fleur is a wonderful hostess and visits from the dog Salty just add to the pleasure of staying at Candlebark. There are also many books - in fact so many books and not enough time - and DVDs to while away the hours if it's bad weather. Not a thing.
• Col (9/5): Ideal for a Quiet Getawy near Beechworth. - A very quiet and cleen cottage in a secluded location 6 kms from Beechworth. Our host was very friendly, and responded quickly to a small prblem with the smoke alarm - which was unavoidable at the time. Nothing to dislike about this property, and the hosts were very attantative when contacted durin our stay.

• George (10/5): Quiet, relaxing and comfortable. - The location was amazing, set amongst paddocks and trees with views of surrounding hills. The cabin was comfortable and well equipped. Easy to locate and close to Beechworth. The shower and kitchen were a little small, but understandable given the design of the cabin.

• Shirley (9/5): Superb -
• Jackie (10/5): Exceptional - Beautiful wildlife friendly settings and garden. Interior very homely and cimfortable with everything needed and thought through. Kitchen is small but very well equipped. The fact we had to leave!

• Vincent (9/5): Great spot and accommodation and a great host, helpful and gave us our privacy. A great sub-host, Salty ensured we were - We were made very welcomed and supported during our stay. It was in a great spot, very serine and most relaxing. Just outside of Beechworth, so easy to get back to town when needed. Lots of spots to take advantage of the great views. Mobile data reception could be improved but I’m sure this is more to do with being in the country.
• Danny (10/5): A divine place to stay to explore the Indigo Valley. - Lovely cabin, beautiful location, great communication. Thankyou. The bed was a little hard.
• Delwyn (10/5): Exceptional -
• Kerry (10/5): A lovely weekend hideaway. - Beautiful quiet location with everything required for a comfortable stay.
• Liza (9/5): Superb -
• Cherylann (9/5): Superb - We loved the seclusion of the property away from busy Beechworth. 1 other thing I would like to add but wasn't major. The bed size was queen and so was the doona. When your partner is a little bigger than you, and especially in Winter, it's nice to have a bit more doona to cover you. King Doona would have been better suited. What we didn't like was the weather, out of the hands of the property.
• Flavio (9/5): Superb -

• Roger (10/5): Cosy,spacious house in the middle of nature near town - Everything from the warm welcome from Fleur, to the privacy, being totally surrounded by nature in a gorgeous house which had been supplied with everything you would need for comfort and convenience. Sitting on the veranda under the grape vine, listening to the birds was heaven. All within about a 5 minute drive to Beechworth. Nothing, except not staying longer.
• Paul (10/5): Candlebark Nature Retreat ☆☆☆☆☆ - Sooo quiet. Surrounded by nature and wildlife galore. Salty, the one-eyed dog, was a great companion. The cottage itself was clean and comfortable and had everything you needed. Water pressure in the shower was poor. Limited internet connection.
