• Geoff (10/5): Lovely property - Clean and very well furnished. Great ambience and location. Nothing
• Will (9/5): We enjoyed the coziness,location and cleanliness of the property. - Location was great because it was 500m from the town centre and loved the cleanliness of the property. The heater in the bedroom was not efficient enough for the size of the room.
• Rundle (9/5): wonderful - Wonderfully luxurious, and immaculately clean and well presented. It felt special 🙂 It wasnt really a problem but we did get a bit of a fright at the wildlife running up and down the varandah at night. Wombat? Possum?
• Adam (10/5): Wonderful weekend - As advertised, perfect for a couple, secluded yet close to Daylesford. Nothing
• Trevor (10/5): -
• Paul (10/5): -

• Robert (10/5): First Class Accommodation! - Everything. As soon as we walked in the door, we knew that we had selected the right property. The decor, lighting and soft music were warm and inviting. This property has excellent quality furniture, particularly the lounges and beds. It was spotlessly clean and well equipped. The manager was very responsive and professional. We had two nights, but would have happily stayed for a week or more. Time to replace the frying pan. Only a minor issue in the context of this excellent property.
• Wendy (10/5): Very relaxing exactly what was needed - It had everything possible to make our stay comfortable the hosts have thought of everything Nothing

A very peaceful location and close to all the attractions and restaurants. We really enjoyed our stay. Thank you.

• Jessica (10/5): Exceptional - Wonderful spot for a weekend! Lovely house, wonderfully clean and welcoming, would highly recommend
• Avril (10/5): Really enjoyed our stay in the beautiful Daylesford area. - Self contained, very comfy interior, everything we needed. The fire created a lovely cosy feel and very much needed on the colder nights. Parking at the door was a bit tight as aware it is a shared driveway. Dryer would have been handy as needed to do a wash and though a washing machine was available we dried clothes on a rack in front of heater so not a big deal.

• Margaret (10/5): A gem of a place - What a find! I could live here. Such a clever layout and superbly furnished. A cosy fire and a well equipped kitchen. I didn’t want to leave. Would love to come back when it’s warmer and use the wonderful balcony. Everything was perfect

The cottage also has a delightful veranda that would be the perfect place to relax and enjoy nature on a sunny day.The cottage has an excellent fully equipped kitchen with dishwasher, coffee maker and onsite parking, Nothing. It was PERFECT!
• Joanna (8/5): Very good - The location was great, close to the main town and within walking distance to cafes and shops. We were impressed to see the fireplace and calming music was on when we walked into the cottage, it gave a welcoming and beautiful ambience. We would have appreciated more clean towels, this was needed for a 2-night stay.
• Alana (10/5): Haiku was peaceful and cosy, with a lovely gas log fire. - We loved our stay at Haiku. The place was welcoming and cosy. Despite the cold winter weather, it was warm, with the gas log fire and electric blankets ensuring we were very comfortable. It was in a great location that felt secluded but was close to everything. There was a bit of noise at times from nearby tractors, but I didn’t find this an issue, and it still felt peaceful.

The wireless dropped in and out occasionally.
