Great home to relax
Thank you Andy, We had an amazing time. We wanted a place close to town with an open fire and easy access. Your place had all of that and was warm and cosy from the minute we arrived. The view of the town was a joy to start and finish the day with. I hope we have an opportunity to return sometime. Lynden

Winter Getaway
We’ve just had the best week in Daylesford staying at Jesmondene. What a great location, easy walk to markets, shops, restaurants, playground, and lake. Andy touched base almost immediately to check we were ok and to let us know of extra wood for the fire. Although the house was very warm with the ducted heated system, even on the frosty mornings!!!! Our family ranging from 3 to 69 years old plus a dog were all well catered for and had a relaxing stay. Thank you, we only have great things to say, can’t wait to visit again.

Impolite landlord
first night used the barbecute stove but cooked half way no more gas. We used more half an hour try to keep in touch the landlord . Finally the landlord reply said have not got the gas you can use the kitchen , it is not a big deal and no need to call him so many time. The other day the landlords came and still want to argue about it. Spoil the trip

Fabulous views and cozy home
Best things about the property were a) its ease of access to town centre even on foot (5 mins walk from restaurants and cafes) and b) views from the front deck overlooking the whole town c) it had two living rooms. One of living room setting was perfect for the adults (adjoining the kitchen and front deck with views) and other one was perfect for the kids with a bedroom, dining, TV room to themselves. We were two families doing a weekend outing together and enjoyed everything. Minor thing about the cleanliness- It was good overall but bed side tables were dusty.

Great Family Holiday Home
The property was situated in a great location, close to the town. It had all the amenities and Andy was very prompt in replying to our queries. Although we noticed the floors were very dusty and only the main areas were vacuumed . All in all we had a great time.

Happy stay at Jesmondene
Our few days at Jesmondene were very happy ones with old friends for our annual get-together. The house was very comfortable with plenty of space and very good facilities in a convenient location. Lovely hot showers! Would be happy to stay again and recommend to others.

Fantastic pet friendly accommodation
Two couples, two children and one dog stayed here and found this home to be perfect. Comfortable, clean and very spacious, it has plenty of charm but with modern luxuries. Gorgeous views across the township to wombat hill, great secure garden for the dog and all in all a great spot. Thanks for having us, we hope to come back again!

A great house and was perfect for our family Christmas get together. Good safe yard for dogs
It was good except we nearly missed out on getting it as we did not receive a reminder when the second payment was due. We were away overseas and missed the 2nd payment date by 3 days and the booking was cancelled. Just luck no one had booked as we would have had no house for a huge family Christmas reunion and lost the deposit. Can I suggest always sending reminders

Perfect Location
This house was located right in the heart of Daylesford - the view from the front lounge & deck looks out at Vincent Street. There were 6 of us staying and there was certainly stacks of room. We loved that the fireplace was all perfectly laid out and just needed a match to get it going. We had our dog with us and the back area was fully fenced and safe for him to wander around. Great base for heading out and exploring this wonderful area.
