Loved the property. Really gorgeous. It was very quiet and I'm a nice close location to the main Street. I was disappointed the Jacuzzi was out of order as that, for me was the main reason I booked this particular place and was my search parameter. That should have been mentioned on the Expedia website.

A trip back in time in charming rooms
A beautiful, large old home, a trip back in time in terms of its size and decor. We loved the very large and charming Plum Room, lovely decoration, view over the town, wonderfully quiet. Showering a bit messy because it's to be done with a hand held shower in a bath with no screening - as it would have been in days gone by. Mattress close to needing replacement. A few cobwebs. Parking at back of house. Helen, the manager, is very friendly and helpful.

A lovely, relaxed place to stay for a little romantic getaway. The building was as impressive as the photos. We loved the rustic charm of the room and decor, and the view from our upstairs window, with conveniently placed armchairs, was lovely in the evening and also to wake up to. Additional welcoming touches that included a bottle of wine and generous continental breakfast items (some of which we were also able to take on a picnic) made it really enjoyable. Onsite parking and garden surrounds added to the experience. Within walking distance to shopping and restaurants. Highly recommend!

The manse was a beautiful place to stay (we stayed 3 nights) the sumptuously decorated, our room was extremely beautiful to be in; The bed was exceptionally comfortable, the bath was gigantic, and I believe the l toilet rates a mention.. although modern plumbing was used and it was immaculately clean as everything else in the place, it was like going back in time... to understand you have to visit! Was even notified before book intime that our room was ready, great service/communication. Bottle of wine, chocolate and packet of biscuits were delightfully supplied extras. Can definitely recommend without hesitation. 👌

Furniture in Green room was stained & in need of a deep clean. The toilet does not have a conventional toilet seat, but a wooden board like a drop toilet with a hole in centre, which would be very difficult to sanitise; also it is in a small cupboard-like room with no ventilation when the door is closed. We appreciated the biscuits, chocolate, wine & breakfast supplies, but even these could not tempt us to stay the second night, even though booked & pre-paid. Dusty & not recommended for people with asthma/allergies.

The Manse is a wonderful place to stay. Daylesford is very cold in August but The Manse was cozy and well warmed despite its grand scale. There was even an open fire ready to go in our room, and the huge bathtub was wonderfully warming. The building is stylish throughout, each room decorated in a sensual individual colour theme. The welcoming gifts of chocolate, biscuits and a great red wine were appreciated. We had the whole place to ourselves for our winter midweek stay. Helen the manager was very welcoming and showed us around. We will definitely be back soon and next time will book some of the well being therapies. The brass bathtub alone would be worth it! The room featured a kitchenette and had plunger coffee, teas, fresh milk, orange juice, breakfast cereals, a microwave and all the necessary crockery and so on. Buy some locally baked bread and you are set for a scrumptious breakfast.

This is a fantastic place to stay. An Edwardian mansion on the hill overlooking Daylesford and easy walking to the main strip. We stayed in the Zebra room with everything you need including real milk and real ground coffee, and an open fire. Great value and we would definitely stay here again.

Old world charm
A spacious room, decorated with old-world charm and character, in a beautiful old building. The complimentary wine and chocolates were a very nice surprise. The balcony on the first floor has a nice view over Daylesford, ideal for that relaxing glass of wine.

Extremely poor cleanliness ruined experience. Whomever made the bed must have been eating something as they did it as there were crumbs on the sheets near the pillows. No staff were present so had no one to raise issue with to get clean sheets so had to just try brush the crumbs off the sheets. Floor wasn't clean- there was a nut on the floor probably from the same source as the crumbs on bed. Some sort of sticky gum or lollie was stuck to the floor near the kitchenette. Shelf under mirror wasn't clean- had a clear mark from a water glass. The only important thing to expect from accommodation is for it to be clean.

We had a lovely short stay at The Manse. There were lots of little unexpected extra gifts that we weren't expecting and this more than made up for the rainy weather outside, and the open fire was very much appreciated of the cold wet evenings.
