About this property

A beautiful large house and garden in the heart of Trentham

Casa Andante, as the names suggests is a place of tranquility where life takes on a slower pace. Experience the peace and slower pace of country life.

This beautiful five-bedroom house, right in the heart of Trentham, is the perfect escape for 10 people. If rented in conjunction with Casa Allegra next door, the two houses together provide 10 bedrooms and accommodation for up to 20 people.
Each house on its own can sleep a maximum of 10 people.

Casa Andante sits on almost 4000sqm of beautiful gardens which makes you feel as though you are away from it all, even though you are right in the heart of Trentham. It is an easy 5-minute stroll to the fabulous pubs, restaurants, cafes and shops.

Casa Andante is a light-filled, elegant yet relaxed and comfortable spacious home. Stunning antique furniture, light fittings, objects d'art and artwork feature throughout the house. Every room is a feast for the eyes, with beautiful and unique furnishings and decorative items.

The outlook and position of this magnificent home makes it a perfect property for all seasons. In Summer you can enjoy al fresco dining in the garden, a picnic in the spacious gardens, croquet on the lawns, or find a quiet place to read a book. At night enjoy the starry skies sitting around the fire pit in the garden.

In winter, curl up in front of the fire in the cosy living room on comfy sofas. Choices of indoor entertainment include wifi, a HD flat screen TV , Google Chrome cast, DVD player (range of DVD’s supplied), board games, books, magazines, and Bluetooth sound system. You will stay toasty warm with two wood fires, two split system units and heaters in each bedroom and bathroom and electric blankets.

The hand made farm-house table with seating for 10 is adjacent to the fully equipped kitchen. A BBQ is also provided on the deck. A chef can be arranged to provide catering at the house, although there are so many great places to eat in Trentham just minutes from the house offering dine in or take away options.

The property has five stylishly appointed bedrooms with super comfy beds and beautiful linen and bedheads. Each room can be configured with a King-sized bed or two long singles. You will be kept nice and warm as each bed has electric blankets and gorgeously cosy bedding. All bedrooms have en-suites with a shower, toilet and basin.

Indulge in massages either in Trentham, or a massage therapist can be arranged to come to the house. Be pampered with spa treatments in Trentham.
If you are renting Casa Allegra in conjunction with Casa Andante, you can enjoy a yoga session with an expert teacher who can come and conduct yoga sessions in the garden studio of Casa Allegra.

All linen is supplied as well as tea, coffee, milk, oil, vinegar salt & pepper.

20yr reunion - Girls weekend
Casa Andante was absolutely perfect, in every way! Beautifully presented, gardens lovely, everything we needed in the house and a very short stroll to the charming Main Street of Trentham. The option of bedroom configuration was fabulous and what a bonus to have 5 bathrooms! Highly recommend Casa Andante for any occasion, at any time of year. Thank you Casa Co for helping us making beautiful memories.

Both Casa properties were outstanding and worked perfectly together for a special birthday long weekend away with friends and family. Our host couldn’t have been more accommodating and the ensuite bathrooms were a real bonus.

Delightful property in the heart of Trentham
We were a group of 8 women staying for a reunion weekend and loved our stay. The home and gardens are beautiful and the property is a 5 minute walk to town. Having so many ensuites made our stay all the better. The home has two fireplaces and a very large dining and lounge, perfect for our large group. The kitchen has everything you could need. We would not hesitate to recommend Casa Andante & would be happy to return.

Great getaway for the gang
Having 5 bedrooms each with their own bathroom was perfect for our group. We really enjoyed the beautiful garden and using the croquet set that was at the house. Proximity to the town is also excellent

Perfect for our retreat
We booked both Casa Andante and Casa Allegra for our 3 day retreat and were not disappointed; the accommodation, the separate studio and beautiful grounds were ideal for our needs. Manager Leon could not have been more helpful in ensuring our stay ran smoothly and we are hoping to book again in 2024.

Country Ideal
We were a mixed group of old friends, all of 60+ years who go away together each New Year’s holiday. We’ve been to places all over Victoria and this Trentham stay was right up there with the best we’d encountered over a lot of years. We’d love to go back to this house & town but there are still some unexplored areas still waiting for us.

Beautiful house and garden
My husband uses a wheelchair at night and in the morning and there was one bathroom large enough for him. The house was an excellent size for our group of 7. The kitchen was very well equipped and looking out onto the garden with all the autumn colours was beautiful. We even had a game of croquet. The house was warm and cozy with the 2 fire heaters and there was plenty of wood. We all enjoyed our stay and one group member said it was the best house he had ever stayed at.

Family wedding accommodation
We stayed at Casa Andante as we were in the area for our daughter's wedding. There were 9 of us. Three generations of our family ranging in age from 74 down to 1 and comprising of the parents, siblings, nephew, aunt and uncle of the bride. The house worked perfectly for us. The bride and her two attendants got ready at the house - hair, makeup and photographs. My sister-in-law and I prepared the flowers for the venue on the island bench in the kitchen and the rest of the family had breakfast and lunch and came and went around us. There was room for everyone. We especially found the five bathrooms very helpful (one for each bedroom) as they gave us all privacy, convenience and space. Loved the open fire which we made good use of. A fantastic venue for a family get together when you would prefer not to be living in each others pockets. :)

Lovely house in Trentham
The house was exactly as described on the site. Five double bedrooms with ensuites, the beds were comfortable and nicely decorated. The house was very clean. The lounge room was also very comfortable with an open fire. The garden was a really beautiful space.

TENOR of TRENTHAM
"Andante" is an appropriate name for a beautiful house in a charming moderately paced country town set in the rolling hills of an historic region of rural Victoria. A great roomy ,warm base for daily excursions ,by foot or car, into the village or hinterland.

Excellent stay for a group of 10 friends, we would highly recommend.
The house has a great layout for a large group. The kitchen is very well fitted out, we cooked many meals and had everything we needed. The grounds are beautiful and the local town is 5 mins walk with an excellent grocery store and nice shops and cafes. We lunched at bistro terrior in Daylesford which was excellent. Anna was very helpful and quick to respond, recommending transport for airport pick ups and day trips. We all had a wonderful weekend!

Highly recommend! We'll be back!
Anna and the Casa's were amazing! We would definitely be back and plan to come back annually. There is so much to love about both Casa's we stayed in. They were designed really well for what we needed. We felt really safe with the location that it was in too. It was close to IGA which is always handy! It was quiet and undisturbed by nature, you really felt like you were there alone which was perfect for our retreat. Anna is really nice and generous too. She helps wherever she can and she makes you feel cared for. We had the best time! Thank you Anna for making it happen :)

Enjoyable staycation
From the moment we drove into the property we knew we were in for a treat ! The garden was well kept , the house , bedroom, living , dining and kitchen was clean , tidy and had all the amenities you would need. You don’t need to bring anything ! The kitchen was so clean and well equipped for cooking. Having an ensuite for each room made living with 10 people comfortable ! It was spacious and it didn’t felt like any of us was in anyones way. The kids had their own space and had a blast indoor and outdoor especially with the fire pit. I highly recommend this place and would definitely come back if I have the chance. Anna the property owner is very hospitable and responsive. I truly can’t fault anything. Thank you Anna !

Unforgettable Holiday
My family and I stayed at Casa Andante during Christmas. It was such an unforgettable and beautiful holiday experience from start to finish. Anna was a lovely and communicative host who went the extra mile to make sure we had all the house and check-in information sorted and organised. Upon arrival the house looks as beautiful as in the photos. It is tastefully furnished and all details are well thought out. There is literally everything included that we needed. It's also amazing that all 5 bedrooms have bathroom ensuites so there's no fighting for the toilet! The gardens of the house are gorgeous and immaculately maintained. We could've stayed in the house all long weekend eating, relaxing and playing games but our family did eventually venture out to eat out once! The only small negative was that it was an unusually cool few summer nights when we were there and we found the room heaters not quite warm enough. And I don't think there's air con in the bedrooms. Otherwise, we would definitely highly recommend this place and would probably also make this a repeat holiday tradition staying here with our family. Thanks so much!
