Lovely peaceful stay

What a lovely property is such a pretty peaceful area. We loved the warmth of the house with all amenities you could need. Our favourite place was outside by the fire, plenty of wood and areas for the kids to explore.

Great comfortable spacious home close to town

Simone was great to deal with. The home is so comfy and welcoming and close to everything. The fire being set up and ready to go on arrival was terrific. Easy check in and everything you need. We had a great short stay.

Warm and cosy

Walking into the property I could tell this would be a lovely home to stay in during the colder months with the fire place but we stayed during summer! A clean and well thought out property! The house was so nice that the groomsman for the wedding we were attending came and had their photos taken inside and out on the decking. The decking was lovely in the morning to sit out and enjoy a coffee. My children loved running down to play on the swings. There was ample parking for multiple cars. Simone was wonderful at responding to my questions and I wouldn’t hesitate to stay again. The property was just outside of jamieson town centre but easily a short walk if required.

Fantastic Jamieson

Jamieson was a perfect stay. Our home for the 4 nights was well presented with a beautiful outlook from large windows through the decking to trees. The decking was a great place to relax as were the two spacious lounge areas. It was walking distance to town and we took some short picturesque walks near the rivers. The local were friendly and helpful. A great place to explore by car or just relax at the wonderful home or both. The home had everything you needed to make the stay comfortable and relaxed.

Wonderful autumn weekend

What a fantastic house in a beautiful little country town. Gorgeous garden and so close to the river and the pub. The house had absolutely everything we needed to enjoy the weekend, cosy indoor fire, great outdoor space and outdoor fireplace. Even the local birds came to greet us. Highly recommend this cosy home and little town for a relaxing getaway

Quite and warm stay with all that you will need.

Although there were some building works the house was complete with everything that you would need for 2 families to stay. The bedrooms were neat and comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked with everything you need to cook up a storm. Nice quite location thats in walking distance to the town.

Large family getaway

This house was a great base for our group of 7 to explore the local area and take day trips up to Mount Buller. It was large enough that we didn't feel on top of each other but could be kept warm and cozy. The large open-plan living area is a great space for gathering together for family dinners. The house was well appointed with everything we needed for our stay. While it is pet-friendly, the front gate cannot be closed so the yard is not fully secure. Our dog has good recall, so this wasn't a huge issue, but it did mean we had to book dog daycare at the veterinary clinic in Mansfield for the days when we couldn't take the dog out with us.

The perfect stay.

What an amazing place! Absolutely gorgeous home, the large property is beautiful, filled with trees and plants. The photos do not do this place justice. The kitchen, lounge, bedrooms and bathrooms were all cosy and modern with a country feel. The outdoor spaces are lovely! We spent a lot of time sitting on the front deck, that is wrapped in vines, simply stunning and so relaxing. Don’t hesitate on booking this place if you’re looking for a great home for you and a bunch of friends, in the perfect location in Jamieson.

Cozy beautiful house

This was a beautiful place to stay which was located 1hr away from Mt Buller - perfect for our snow trip. I stayed here with my partner and our two friends with their two children. There were 4 bedrooms which was plenty for us! The bedrooms were clean and the two bathrooms were spacious! The kitchen and living room were well equiped with the neccessities and we even received a cute welcome basket with snacks in it! We loved our stay and would highly recommend it for anyone wanting to find a place to stay that is close to Mt Buller.

Had an absolutely wonderful time staying here with my family. the place was neat, cozy, lovely fireplace to keep us warm. the interior is very modern and well maintained, one thing we always check is the old smell of a bnb but this one had none which was great! The goodies in the gift wrap was a nice thought :) Just an advice to improve on is that the patio was wet from the rain so itd be nice to have a mat to come in so our slippers doesnt get the floor wet. overall everything was spectacular, really love the interior design of this house! Thanks for having us :) Looking forward to stay here again with my family

Comfy, cosy, clean and beautifully renovated.

This cottage was the perfect place for our two families (4 adults and 4 children aged between 11-15). The cottage has been beautifully renovated inside, the rooms are spacious and comfortable and there’s an abundance of outdoor space, including a beautiful outdoor fireplace. We spent most of our time indoors, warm and cosy in front of the roaring indoor fire. The house is very well stocked, with a huge amount of kitchenware, new board games and everything you could possibly need. Communication was excellent. Thank you Simone for being such a great host!

Best location holiday house in Jamieson

This property is the best holiday property I’ve ever rented because it has everything I need just like my own house and even more! Has a huge beautiful backyard. Has many different types of herbs that we we’re allowed to use for our cooking. The property is very clean and almost everything is new. The outside of the house might look old but the inside is all renovated like brand new and very very clean. Has almost every board games one can think of. LOVE LOVE IT! Thanks from the bottom of our hearts Simone❤️🌹

Lovely holiday house!

The pictures really don’t do this place justice! This was such a cozy, warm house to stay in while we explored the area and went skiing at Mt Buller. The fire was so relaxing and even though it was cold, they loved exploring out the back of the property. Simone has put a lot of effort into making sure the house has everything you need and all the rooms and bathrooms were immaculate. She also made the checkin process really easy. The only thing we would have added was a mat on the inside of the sliding door for our muddy boots and shoes as it was quite wet. The new family room that is being built will also add some extra space which will be perfect for a couple of families to stay together. Thank you!
