Friends winter getaway

We planned a winter getaway for 5 girls in the Yarra Valley wine region. Accommodation is in a nice quiet street a short walk to the Main Street and cafes. House was nice overall. Very cosy with a lovely fireplace and relaxing sofas (loads of cushions!). Lots of amenities - owner kindly provided milk, eggs and bread which was nice! We did have a few issues which unfortunately brought down the rating. There was a bad stale tank water/sewage smell from the laundry which permeated to the kitchen and pantry all weekend. Owner suggested to run the washing machine but it didn’t help. No internet so had to hotspot off our phones including to use the tv. O contacted the owner who said had changed provider but not alerted us to this or provided details. This is not a 4 bedroom house- 3 lovely bedrooms (1 gorgeous en suite) but the ‘4th’ has no door just a shutter screen to move in place and is really only suitable for children with small bunks and sofa bed. Lastly, owner sent an odd message the night before we arrived to ensure we had no additional guests as he would be checking the outdoor security cameras to confirm numbers- not very welcoming or trusting as I’m sure the majority of guests do the right thing. Overall it was a nice place to stay but more suitable for families than a friends getaway.

Wonderful

This property is very clean and tastefully decorated. Plenty of plates cups and cooking utensils etc in the kitchen. You can't see from the photos but the open fire place is double sided and you can see it in the lounge room. The tv is probably a little big for the room but none the less spectacular. I have never seen Jane Bunns head that big before. Close to the main street in Healesville with supermarkets and gourmet food shops. No traffic noise very quiet. Well worth it

Malley House

This property puts quantity ahead of quality. Not as amazing as it appears in the listing. Showers not clean, tired furnishings, etc. Heating was not adequate for Healesville in the winter; it took a long time for us to get warm. Best features of the this house are the enormous television and the large number of beds available.

As big as it is impressive!!

Paul and Rita’s home was simply a great stay. Spacious, comfortable and luxurious. I would not hesitate to stay here again. Location should also be noted as great, close to everything. Despite some issues (caused on our end) with the booking, Paul was overly accommodating and readily available to assist.

Lovely modern country cottage

This is a lovely little house with tonnes of character. Can’t fault the stay itself, the beds were comfy the heaters worked, there was hot water, it was very quiet and felt very private. Location was great, only about 1min drive from the main street food & shops. There were however a few maintenance issues that I guess detracted a little bit from the loveliness of the house. Broken taps, wobbly toilet seat, either damaged or unfinished cabinetry/workmanship. There was also an unpleasant smell that we think was coming up from the drain in the sink in the island bench but it was only for an hr or so in the morning. Also the dishwasher really needs a cleaner run through it... it smelled really bad, perhaps that was connected to the other smell. But these were all very minor things we really enjoyed our stay and would def book here again. Thank You!

Beautiful house with fantastic, responsive hosts

We loved how beautiful the property is decorated, and how well equipped and well stocked with food the kitchen is. Paul even lit the fireplace for us before we arrived. The place is really a wonderful little piece of heaven just talking distance to town. And all the little touches just added to what is already a lovely home away from home.
