Amazing property - every detail was beautiful - didn’t want to leave - hope we can stay again! Amazing deck and yard for our dog - great kitchen bathroom and very comfy bed and couch. By far one of the best houses we’ve stayed in!

Loved staying at this welcoming yet immaculate property. Everything was thoughtfully arranged and communicated for guests. With a gorgeous mix of character and contemporary style, we felt completely relaxed and cosy in the house. Recommended if you’d like a bit of luxury in a cosy family setting.

We’ve stayed in many holiday homes during the past twenty years or so, and this one is a standout!Warm when we arrived on a really cold day, beautifully renovated and stunning central location (yet very quiet).The house retains its beautiful heritage features but provides all the modern luxuries. The hosts are generous - chocolate and a really nice bottle of red. A lovely message on our day of arrival, advising us the the house was ready and we were welcome to arrive early. Everything was spotless.Truly, this place is perfect!We will definitely return for a longer stay. Such an interesting town and district!

Lovely Stay in Quarry Hill
I had a wonderful time at Olinda Cottage in Quarry Hill, Bendigo. The house is beautifully designed and presented to a very high standard. It is also situated close to all the action in town. I felt safe and secure there, particularly as I could park my car in the lock-up garage. It is also a terrific, pet-friendly property with a secure backyard for my dog while I was out exploring during the day. The instructions and communication from Glenn and Maddy were clear, and the wine and chocolate upon arrival were a thoughtful touch. Highly recommended!

Unwelcomed surprises
The flooring is a shock. It isn't level and almost every board creeks. You can even see through to under the house from the floor in the toilet. The couch and the bed is basically built for someone who is 4'10". Very awkward for older guests.

Bendigo long weekend stay
Very pretty, comfortable cottage, with a deck and garden. We felt very welcome and looked after. Lovely comfortable beds and our dogs were happy to be along too. It was a hot weekend but our hosts had everything ready for us with the aircon already on so we stepped into a lovely cool house.
