This is a cosy, unpretentious cottage just off the main street in Daylesford. It is warm, and very well equipped with furniture and kitchen equipment. The larder was well stocked too. We had a delightful four nights there.

Magic stay

We had a lovely time in Daylesford. My 10 year old loved exploring and catching skinks. While the adults loved drinking coffee on the sunny balcony. Very close to the lake and shops. Perfect location. The cabin was clean and had everything we needed Would definitely stay here again Thank you Emily and Owen

Oak Cottage weekend

Comfortable, spacious, good amenities. Nice space on balcony with treetop outlooks. Lovely walk down to the lake and short walk to town. Good to not always rely on the car! We enjoyed our break and will be back. Cheers

Lovely and clean, excellent facilities with all you could want inside.A bit hard to find as no number on the cottage (bit confusing at first). Cold bathroom, didn’t know if there was a heater available.Edge of kitchen tile a bit sharp as it has no strip covering it.Power box very close to main bedroom door and nearly hit it a few times.Overall comfortable and clean.Cockatoos are very cheeky and love to bomb the cottage with the acorns they chew !

Winter break Daylesford

This property was just what I was looking for. It was in a great location being only a short walk to the lake and to the main street. The weather was cold, yet the place was very comfortable and warm. Although we didn't get a chance to play any games there were heaps of board games and DVDs. The kitchen was well stocked. There were two decent sized rooms and a good bathroom. It was perfect for a weekend away with my teenage daughter. The property owner communicated well with clear instructions given prior to arrival. I would recommend it.

4/10 Poor

Liked: Check-in, communication, location
Disliked: Cleanliness
When I arrived, the kitchen's rubbish bin was almost fulled.Lots of owners clothing hanging on the racks and their shoes on the floor. Not a single hanger for clothes in sight. Neither a wardrobe Fridge full of owner's foods. Bedroom has only one drawer for us to put clothing in, the rest was full of bedlinen.Toilet drawers also full of owner's stuffs.That made me feel like sharing the house with others at the same time. But I am the one paying the full amount !House location is very good, very close by the town and every where you wanted to go to.The place was too expensive for the condition, also a lots of personal photos of people who died.In the pass we have always rented from StayZ, including in the name of our son and grandson.This time StayZ let us down in big time.
