Mount Alexander Shire : locations de vacances dans des cottages

One of the greatest experiences I had staying somewhere. The guests were very hospitable and generous. The fresh and smoked trout was delicious.

We had a great time at the Barn! The accommodation itself was beautiful and well set up with all the bits and pieces you need. The beds were warm and comfy, and the heaters in the bedrooms were great for when our group weren’t around the open fireplace in the living area. We made good use of the wood fire pizza oven and games room onsite, and our 3 year old loved going “up in the tree house”. Andy was responsive and friendly, and Sally onsite was extremely helpful. Unfortunately on this occasion we didn’t get to hang out in the sauna, but I’m sure we will when we return! Thanks again for a great stay.

If you need some open space, this is the place! The boys wondered around , lots to explore. Surroundings are full of good restaurants and places to see. Very peaceful experience.

Jenny’s place felt like a home away from home. The space made us take a step back in time and chill out. Jenny’s communication was ace! Highly recommend this place if you want to reconnect and relax.

This was my second stay here in one of the stone spa cottages and it was just as beautiful as the last time I stayed! The views, birds, sheep, lambs, horses, chickens and the beautiful dogs made our stay even better. Jan and Rob are wonderful hosts and I am thankful for you both sharing your space with us, your hospitality is incredible and very inviting. Thank you for having us stay! We will return again and again!

Jeffrey is a gorgeous place to base yourself to explore this lovely historic town. Lots of space to make you feel right at home and very comfy beds to rest up after a day exploring. Alan was extremely helpful with his recommendations making it easier to choose from so many options for eating and drinking available here.

We had the best stay at Red and Patrick’s place. Such a beautiful property, so peaceful and picturesque. It was so lovely listening to all the different birds and wildlife during the day, it instantly made us feel relaxed. The cottage itself was perfect, cosy and inviting and the little treats and gifts left by our hosts were a lovely surprise. Our dog also had the best time exploring the property! The facilities were great to use and we were able to make ourselves a yummy coffee every morning as well as lunch and dinner one day, which was nice to have a break from eating out. There is so much to do around the area and we thoroughly enjoyed visiting Creswick, Castlemaine, Daylesford and Maldon - especially when all these towns are very dog friendly! Thanks again Red and Patrick, we can’t wait to return!

We had a fantastic time at Kate’s. Fabulous communication from booking, during the stay and wrapping up our stay. The cottage is beautiful. Fill of wonderful history but everything had its’ place. Kitchen and bathroom practical to use and water shower wonderful. Linen was beautiful to sleep in. We loved the garden with lots of different places to sit. Enjoyed breakfast and evening drinks outside. Maldon did not disappoint. With lots to see, eat and shop with boutique shops and galleries. We loved the pancake pack - they were delicious. Thanks Jamie and Kate this was an exceptional house for our four nights and you were exceptional hosts.

Kim’s place was lovely. We took our two golden retrievers who really appreciated all the little touches that make it ideal for pups - things like snacks for them on arrival and pup friendly bed linen. The area is ideal if you’re looking to step away from the city hustle and bustle, and just vanish into the countryside. Whilst Vaughan is very quiet and peaceful, Daylesford was about a 20-30 mins drive away which of course has plenty to do. An ideal balance of both worlds. Kim’s responses were super quick which was hugely appreciated and a great welcome pack was available too. Highly recommend to anyone who just wants to step away from the world for a little hush time.

Lovely quiet place surrounded by beautiful nature and rolling hills. The interior is beautifully decorated and equipped with everything you need for a weekend away. I loved the fireplace and the timeless furniture! The only thing that could improve would be that the shower pressure was quite low, and the hot water ran out very quickly! All in all though it was a fantastic stay!

We had a lovely stay at Todd’s cottage. Walking distance from the station, to shops, The Mill and the Botanic Gardens, everything we needed was walking distance. Todd made the courtyard secure for our escape artist dog and we could leave her there without worry. Loved the cottage’s old characteristics. Thanks for a great stay.

We loved staying at Susan’s place! She was such a lovely and generous host! The house was lovely; beautiful plants and pretty decor, and such a quiet area- we all slept so well there. The kitchen was well equipped so it made cooking and dining easy. It was easy to find and very simple check in. Castlemaine is a lovely town and there is so much to do in the surrounding area. I would definitely recommend a nice relaxing getaway at Susan’s place!

Elbert is one of the nicest hosts you will ever meet… a beautiful human presence, very responsive and incredibly kind and helpful. I have a few allergies and having spoken with him beforehand, Elbert went above and beyond with great effort to make our stay as comfortable as possible. My daughter and I were keen to do some hikes and Elbert went out of his way to help out with some suggestions and maps. We slept super well under beautifully light and snuggly warm doonas and awoke to birdsong surrounded by the stillness and peace of the bush. Being off grid one takes it upon themselves to adapt to the ups and downs that may go with it such as the generator needing to kick in to run the coffee machine or grill but we still found comfort wrapping our hands around a delicious mug of hot instant coffee out on the verandah with the warmth of the morning autumn sun whilst cooking brekky on the bbq. And evenings were spent playing games by the fire… a slow holiday to reconnect with loved 1s

Lovely to revisit after 17 years. We were mesmerised by the stonework and the building in particular. Relaxing balcony and wide open landscape. Everything we needed and all the divine acreage to explore as well as sweet towns of the district. Everything within 20 minutes. Don't miss the Frida exhibition in Bendigo. Very hard to leave this piece of heaven.

Apple Cottage is in a lovely peaceful part of Maldon, felt very much enjoying the country life but a short drive to town. We loved how cosy and calm the cottage decor and the beautiful short strolls around the streets into the town. Having access to a stove and oven was also awesome to heat the home cooked food we bought, definitely a place could relax and stay a few days! Enjoyed visiting the honey factory gift store just around the corner too!

Beautiful, peaceful cottage, it was very clean, well equipped kitchen and excellent laundry with above average cleaning supplies, which was great, as we were travelling with 2 young kids. Great secured area for the car, with gate, which was handy while unpacking the car, with young kids. Can highly recommend.

We had a lovely, relaxing, long weekend stay in Isabella’s Cottage. We enjoyed every aspect including: - Amazing host host Dianne, who made sure we had everything we needed, and was great to communicate with. - Generous, quality breakfast provisions, which are tailored to dietary restrictions. I especially appreciated this being gluten intolerant. - Full size kitchen with everything you need, including condiments, spreads, oil, foil, etc - Quiet street with no problem parking - Great location, walking distance from Kyneton’s cafes, restaurants and shops - Nice outdoor area, which was great for breakfast, and dinner on warm summer days - Everything we needed was provided, including handy things like sunscreen - Useful information on things to do was provided online before hand - It was nice to have a whole house to ourselves, so had plenty of space, not like some smaller places Of course we can’t wait to stay again.

It was a true gem. The cozy living room and tranquil bedroom ensured a restful stay. The stunning outdoor space and convenient location made it a perfect getaway. Highly recommended for a peaceful, stylish escape. Can't wait to return!

This beautifully curated Miners Cottage just minutes from the heart of Maldon was perfect for a few nights of R&R. It has been fitted out with everything you could want for luxury and comfort and decorated with superb antiques and artwork. An absolute joy! Gayle was a real pleasure to meet - very helpful and kind. Maldon itself is like a movie, set in 1900. Highly recommend the Bakery! Character and charm in all directions, fabulous pastries. Only 15 minutes to Castlemaine for some additional shopping for clothes. I was in heaven the whole weekend!

We loved our stay here! Would absolutely rebook. Gorgeous house and a beautiful little town :)

We spent Easter at Katherine’s house over Easter and it was perfect for us. Conveniently located right in the middle of kyneton with so many interesting shops and cafes within a stones throw. House was charming. Thanks Katherine Kerin
