Guest Reviews
- rosa (9/5): We enjoyed our short stay at Gwen’s cottage, sweet, comfy and cosy - It was clean and comfortable, nice big beds and a good shower. The kitchen was clean and had all the facilities. Great location, easy walk into the town centre Nothing
- Lisa McLeod (10/5): - Only issue was the messaging . Nothing welcoming , just threats. Like walking on eggshells, worried we'd do something wrong.
Anyway , we went out for dinner and watered the flowers ...
- Kirsty (8/5): - Great location, very well appointed and clean
- Mathias (10/5): -
- Alyssa (10/5): A beautiful, comfortable stay - wish we could’ve stayed longer! - A beautiful, comfortable place to stay with a touch of luxury for a non-luxury price! It is situated on the main road (King St) with some traffic noise during the day, but it was quiet at night so did not disturb our sleep :)
- Tae Young (8/5): 아늑하고 예쁜 숙소 - 깨끗하고 아늑한 공간이였어요. 호수랑 가까워서 좋았어요. 아침을 간단하게 먹을수 있는 우유와 시리얼을 제공해줘서 고마웠어요. 없어요
- Stephen (9/5): Pleasant and enjoyable - The property was like home from home Nothing
- Annette (10/5): -
- Jessi (10/5): - Extremely well presented - the photos don’t do it justice! The extra amenities are great including the mounted tvs in each bedroom was a really nice treat. Super close to everything also. Nothing
- Margaret (10/5): - Clean, beautiful big comfy beds, thoughtful snacks, tea and coffee, and perfect location. Nothing. Lovely stay.
- Sharmane (10/5): - Beautiful property, great location and easy to get to. Instructions received were really clear on how to access and what needed to be done before we left. Nice AC for the hot weather. Comfy lounge and dining space. Beautiful rooms. There were a lot of perfume scent stick things in the property so when we first entered the smell was overwhelming. We just left the doors open for a little to air out some of the strong perfume smell and it was fine.
- Adele (10/5): Gwen’s cottage was gorgeous! So clean and well appointed . ! Every room beautifully furnished. Exceptionally comforta - Everything ! Breakfast supplied, outstandingly clean , beautiful decor and outside sitting area . Nothing

- Dean (10/5): -
- Melinda (10/5): An excellent place to stay. - The place was beautifully presented. Everything was in working condition. Beds were comfortable and basics were available eg Tea,coffee and little extras on the dining table meant I didn’t have to race to the supermarket on the day of arriving. A little information in the cottage about what is available in the area (things to do) and maybe a map of the area would have been good.
- Karen (8/5): - The beds were comfortable The road at the front was noisy
- Patricia (10/5): Beautiful cottage, Exceptionally clean. Would definitely stay again. - Gwens was a beautiful cottage and lived up to expectations. Very, very comfortable bed, beautifully clean. The key was very easy to find. A lovely amount of tea, milk provided. Just down the road from the Main Street - would have been in walking distance if I was younger.
Would recommend it to anyone looking for a break away in Daylesford. Nothing.

Adding a loaf of bread for the first night,at least would really add to your profile..but thank you for what you provided

Close to town and and easy walk to Daylesford Lake. We wished we could have spent a week here … or more! Some road noise though this was quiet through the night.
- Michael (10/5): Exceptional -
- Michelle (9/5): Superb -
- Farah (10/5): Exceptional - The place was so lovely and clean. The location was great, only a 5 minute drive, or you could walk to the main town. We were very happy and we would definitely stay there again. Nothing, really. The only thing is when we wanted to watch Netflix. You had to log in to your own user name. Which took a while. Didn't understand why it just wasn't already set up. 😕
