Little Jem was fantastic, for so many reasons. Apart from the fact that it was so lovely, quiet and the location was only a minute drive from the main street. It also had a great outdoor space that was compact but nicely designed and very comfortable. The house itself was spacious, felt very new, was immaculately clean, linens and towels were so fresh and spotless, bathrooms were beyond spotless, furniture was comfy and again, very clean and modern. Check-in and out was so easy, and Kim, the host, was brilliant with her communication and also so attentive with details and emails to make our stay the best it could be. We look forward to returning there again and highly recommend staying here without a doubt!

Perfect place for a getaway
Checking in add Hidden Jem was as easy as could be, the place was bigger than we’d thought and although it was only two of us having some space to move was nice. Super well equipped for the 35 degree day while we were there, close by to town and we loved the close proximity of the tennis courts too!

Quiet little getaway
A fantastic property to stay at, it’s hidden off the main roads so it’s nice and quiet. The house itself was spotless and there was a cute backyard for our dog to run around in. We were welcomed with a lovely gift, and Kim, our honest was excellent with her communication and checking in on us throughout our stay. Highly recommend staying here!

Great property with outdoor entertaining area
This property has awesome furnishings, a well equipped kitchen, fabulous bathrooms and a fantastic outdoor area where you can relax at the end of the day with a glass of wine. The location is in a quiet area with off street parking. We took our dog and he loved running around the secure yard. A special bonus was the gift we received on arrival!

A true hidden jem
We were absolutely blown away with this beautiful little hideaway! I think it's often the thoughtful little details that really enhance your stay, and this property abounded with them! Like the fact that the gas fireplace was lit and keeping the place warm when we arrived (at 5pm on a freezing, rainy day after a long cold drive!). Then it was the heated tiles and Bondi bath products in the bathrooms, and the olive oil and other seasonings and condiments included in the (very well appointed) kitchen space. No detail too small and it made for a hassle free and very relaxing stay. We'll certainly be back.

A perfect hidden jem
We had such a lovely stay at Hidden Jem! The house is immaculate and Kim provided everything needed for a Winter getaway! Fireplace was on when we arrived, heated floors in the bathrooms were a real luxury and the beds were super comfortable! We were thrilled to be abe to bring our dog with us, the yard is fenced off and perfect for small dogs! We highly recommend staying here while in Daylesford it is a beautiful home away from home!

Wonderful mini break
We enjoyed our stay. The property is new and well thought out with everything you need. It was cold being June but the house was lovely and warm and the under floor heating in the bathrooms made me want it at home. Beds and bedding five star. Good position easy to walk to the Main Street, lake and gardens. We had our little dog and there was a small safe garden for her. It is behind another house so no view but highly recommend.

Hidden Jem is certainly a Gem!
We had a great stay at Hidden Jem! The house was lovely and clean. We enjoyed time in front of the fireplace and the outdoor fire pit was a hit with my kids (hello roasted marshmallows). My family has been to Daylesford a few times so we knew we loved the area, but this was our first stay at this property and it did not disappoint! Highly recommend!!

Hidden Jem a real gem
Our stay at Hidden Jem coincided with one of the coldest and wettest weeks for some years in Victoria. Thankfully we had this warm and beautifully kept property to stay at. In fact, we spent more time at the property than usual due to the weather. Those heated bathroom floors were a real bonus on those freezing mornings, & the gas log fire kept the whole living area very cosy. It actually surpassed our expectations, which is unusual, as online listings are quite often a little inaccurate. The location was also great, and only about a 10 minute walk to the town centre. Our only disappointment was that we weren't able to utilise the outdoor area/facilities as it was a bit too cold/wet. Maybe we'll have to come back again in warmer times. Well done to Kim for our very pleasant stay.
