Bonnie's by Lake Daylesford
we loved everything about Samantha's cottage. it was very clean and had everything we needed. close to the lake and the shops. we'll be back

Cosy Cottage on Mair
What a great house to stay at in Central Ballarat. Easy walk to great cafes and restaurants. Jenny was very easy to communicate with, the accomodation was very pretty and comfortable. And we very much appreciated the thoughtful breakfast supplies left for us! Would definitely stay again- Thanks for having us!

St. Etienne Daylesford ~ Contemporary Styling!
Stunningly renovated and styled property. We were there in autumn which meant we had the good fortune of experiencing the stunning garden and beautiful Daylesford in all its glory. The house was well equipped with everything we needed for our Easter stay. Loved the Kennedy Smith hand soaps and diffusers, the ample blankets and the fabulous vinyl player! Such a treat to have Beethoven playing all day in these beautiful rustic yet sophisticated surrounds. Walking distance to everything. Please continue maintaining St.Etienne to these high standards. We fell in love and hope to be back soon.

Jesmondene
This is a beautiful house in the peaceful neighbourhood that has a close proximity to all you need in Daylesford e.g. supermarket and town area. We highly recommended! Andrew is also proactive and provided a clear instructions and communication for our stay.

Escape to luxury indulgence
Jennifer and David’s house is a fabulous place to stay in Daylesford! The house itself is modern, clean, spacious, has excellent amenity, and special bonus features including pool, spa and sauna! Communication was easy, always prompt and informative. Will be back. Highly recommend!

Dacha on Daylesford Lake. Houses 8
A stunning home with a beautiful outlook onto lake Daylesford. Gorgeous decor and all the little extras you need from kitchen to bathroom to bedroom. A stunning retreat that I would definitely book again

Summer Haven Cottage - Pet Friendly
Karen was a great host, very responsive and helpful. Allowed us to check in earlier free of charge. The cottage was absolutely beautiful and super clean. Has a very cosy vibe and in a great location. 10/10 would recommend

Cottonwood, retro gem in quiet location
We had a lovely stay at this beautiful home in Daylesford. Communication with the host was excellent—friendly, prompt, and helpful throughout. The house itself was spotless, spacious, and felt very much like a home rather than just a rental. It’s in a great location—close enough to town for convenience, but still peaceful and quiet for a relaxing getaway. One of our favourite touches was the guest book filled with stories from other people’s stays—it was heartwarming and made the experience feel even more special. Would absolutely recommend this place to anyone visiting Daylesford!

Walk to Sovereign Hill, Cafes & Local Gems | Wi-Fi
lovely place, was perfect and very cosy for my partner and i. If your looking to stay in ballarat this is the perfect place. Very affordable.

Balconies Lakeview
Great location and friendly staff, would come back here again

Lakeside Suite 3
Had a wonderful stay, the place was everything as described, spacious, very clean and well equipped with everything you need, and we especially liked that it was so close to Lake Daylesford. The balcony backed out onto the lake and was the prefect spot to relax and watch the sunset. Something to note for anyone with mobility issues, this suite (3) can only be accessed by a slightly steep flight of stairs which proved to be a little difficult for my elderly mum, would’ve have been great if this was included in the details beforehand. There also seemed a slight problem with toilet seat (wasn’t fitted properly) and some information contained in the ‘information file’ in the suite contradicted with the details (check-out times) that was provided. However overall, we had a fabulous stay, it is a gorgeous place and would definitely recommend!

Lakeside Suite 2
Booked this property for my parents to stay on their wedding anniversary. They were very impressed with the property and loved their stay. It had everything they needed and was in a beautiful location. Communication was prompt and booking was very easy. Would recommend!

Family Apartment on Main, Steps to Sovereign Hill
Great place to stay, so clean and the beds are lovely and comfortable. Response time was amazing and so quick too. We felt right at home. Love the home touches with plants and the dvds and games collection was amazing too. We loved the board games and wish we had more time to play them.

Lakeside Suite 4
The lakeside suite was serene. Tidy clean and quiet with a beautiful view of the lake. The lakeside suite is walking distance from Vincent Street and the lake is easily accessible. The decking could do with a little bit of TLC and being on the lower level we could hear our neighbours above us. Nonetheless, our stay was lovely.

Luxury on Webster – Upscale 2BR Close to Hospital
Very friendly and responsive host. Clean and comfortable accommodation. Perfect location. Thanks Jessica!

L'Atelier Daylesford
Perfectly described as French style apartment, although a whole lot larger than in France. it was gorgeous, felt right at home, it was definitely my vibe. We really enjoyed our stay & the place is very comfortable, there is everything you would need for either a short stay or a long stay & the added bonus of the Ecasa homewares store below was a must to visit & the chance to purchase some of the lovely decor in the apartment sold there as well. Its so central, everything within walking distance. Daylesford is a great getaway location & I would love to return to this apartment again one day.

Lake Orchard Villas - House 3
The house is clean and peaceful, beautifully located by the lake. It’s especially delightful to take a stroll at sunset. I really enjoyed my stay and hope to visit again in the future.

Stephanie’s pet friendly 2 bedroom Cottage.
What a beautiful place to stay for a few nights. Close to Daylseford and Kyneton which are lovely to visit, all while staying somewhere very peaceful and quiet. We loved it here, there are kangaroos everywhere. The house is very well fitted out, warm with a lot of room. We loved the pizza that Stephanie made us. Our dog really enjoyed the walks - one thing for all dog owners to note is the very safe and secure yard around the house. Our dog was able to wander around without us having to worry about her getting out of the yard! We will definately be back.

2 Min Walk to Sovereign Hill - Pizza Oven & Wi-Fi
Cute and cozy home, plenty of space for a group of 5. Great comms from the host, thanks!

Contemporary Cottage - WIFI
Great place! Comfortable beds, beautiful bathroom. Kitchen had everything needed to prepare meals. Would book again when staying in Ballarat!

Château Rosemund - '...your home away from home’.
Had a lovely stay at Chateau Rosamund. A very clean and well equipped home. We really enjoyed the kitchen and living area. It was open but still cosy. Location is a quick drive away from the town centre and surrounding attractions. We would definitely recommend this space and would love to return during a warmer month with friends so we can make use of the cute bbq area outside.

Oak Cottage - Daylesford - 200m from everything
Great location easy walk to the main area. Only a small house, but served our needs. Even though it was a cold weekend, the heating was able to get the house warm. Would stay again!

Bidwell, a charming hideaway near Lake Daylesford
Ideal spot to enjoy the walking paths around Daylesford, plus lovely and warm at night.

A Romantic Escape in Nature’s Embrace
Beautiful location, peaceful and relaxing. Loved everything about it especially all the extra details that are put into this property. Thank you Janine for being so accommodating and very responsive. Absolutely love my stay.
