Relaxing and secluded
We had a lovely overnight trip during winter. Nice and cosy and enough space for a family of three. Had a lovely walk through the bush literally at the doorstep. Board games at night was a fun activity in the evening. Thanks Julie!!

Rural wedding
My husband, myself & our friend were warmly welcomed by Julie & Greg on arrival! We found the accomodation clean, the kitchen well appointed & overall perfect for our needs. We went for a walk in the bush behind the property & had dinner at a pub in Creswick on our 1st night. We explored Creswick town & surrounds, then attended a wedding on our 2nd day, which was only 10 minutes drive away! Would come back again!

Quiet stay in bush setting
This was our second stay at this property and we would stay again without hesitation. It is in a beautiful bush setting and hence very quiet and yet close to Creswick if needed. We felt very comfortable there.

Great place to stay
It is a very pleasant bush setting. It is within easy reach of the town. The facilities are modern and very well looked after. There is plenty of room in the house and no passing traffic. If you don’t want to cook, there are plenty of nearby eating places. Blampied, a 20 minute drive has the best pub food we have eaten in our extensive travels.Julie is a very hospitable host and is not intrusive, but will answer any questions. We had a great time there and would have no hesitation about recommending it. If you have children there is plenty of room for them to play.

Secluded in bush setting in cute Creswick and convenient to Ballarat
Our second time here. The property and host are wonderful. Think - waking up to birdsong, drinking your coffee while looking over the bush and barbecuing with your family. The property itself is well appointed with bonus goodies to make your stay extra special. Very comfy beds, convenient parking and easy to manoeuvre for my father who uses a walker (only a couple of steps to get on to the porch). Julie the host is pleasant; welcoming, communicative, generous, relaxed. She was relaxed about check in and check out, popped past to make sure we were happy, and invited us to help ourselves to berries in her garden. Creswick is great to explore on foot - full of history and charm, but still has a small town feel.

Would highly recommend this beautiful little bungalow if you are wanting a little getaway. It is roughly 20 min drive to Daylesford or Ballarat. It is bright and spacious and has beautiful rural surroundings but the best part is the bed. I know this is a big statement to make but this place has best bed I have ever slept in (better than my own at home) . So yourself a favour and book this little gem :)

Great house and location
The house was very clean and tidy. It had all the necessary furniture, kitchen appliances and utensils, linen, etc. The reverse cycle split systems kept the place nice and warm. We were very comfortable. Excellent location in Creswick that is very close to the main street and allows exploring the surrounding area. We had the best pizza ever at 84 on Albert. I'm very happy with our short holiday.
