Wood fire heater was fantastic and made for cosy evenings. Key was in the front door for arrival so very easy check in. Two private outdoor areas to sit and enjoy the birdsong and gumtrees.

It was a cute little cottage and pretty quiet and tranquil

Incredibly beautiful spot, and still only a 7 min drive into Daylesford. Great info in advance, very responsive host. Could not fault the stay at all. Thank you!

“I would book it again”

Very peaceful, relaxing and quiet. Great location. Enjoyed the scenery. Beautiful and best for couples.

“Quaint cottage stay”

Cute cottage

“Amazing”

Clean, peaceful environment, well maintained and presented.

The cottage was very comfortable, clean and quaint. A gorgeous setting to relax and chill out and a short drive into Daylesford and surrounding areas.

“Great getaway”

The cottage was clean, cosy and had everything we needed for our 2 night stay

Beautiful, cosy cottage. Only a short drive to Daylesford/Hepburn Springs. Perfect for a couple's weekend getaway. Location is very picturesque and peaceful. Enjoyed walking through the gardens and paying the animals a visit! Room also has excellent Wi-Fi, which works well for streaming and device connectivity.

The cottage was so clean, so close to the main town yet so private. It was so peaceful sitting on the back deck taking in the views and the beautiful animals on the property. We felt so cosy lighting the fire and waking up to see a little pony! Was just the country escape we were after. We will definitely be back!

“The perfect location and site for a relaxing stay to detoxify from stressful life.”

We spent three amazing days at this fantastic cottage in Daylesford and couldn’t be happier with our experience. Nestled in a beautiful and peaceful forest setting, yet only a few minutes drive from the centre of Daylesford, the location is truly ideal. The quiet and warm atmosphere of the cottage was unlike anything we’ve experienced before—it felt incredibly welcoming and calming from the moment we arrived. Everything was spotlessly clean and clearly very well cared for, a reflection of how much attention and love the owners put into this special place. Although we only stayed a few days, we’re already looking forward to coming back as soon as possible. The beauty and serenity of this location left a lasting impression.

Lovely location, warm and inviting cabin

“Cottage is extremely well kept and clean. Would definitely recommend staying here.”

Beautiful cottage with all the required amenities. Absolutely loved the fireplace as nights were cold!

“Thanks to Penni and Jo for having us. We enjoyed our stay”

Nice and cosy vibe, well maintained. We will definitely book again

“We will return.”

Seclusion, wood fire, cute ambience with idiosyncratic construction, an unobtrusive professional host.

“Loved the peace and quiet atmosphere.very tranquil”

Very peaceful, tranquil and relaxing. The cottage is super clean the property is very well maintained. The hosts live separately on the property and not once did they try to intrude on our space. The cottage is very well managed with total privacy of your own. This was a very relaxing couple days for us. And our little puppy totally enjoyed the surroundings of nature. Loved the wood heater for the cold night. 10 out of 10 for this property.

“Highly recommend staying at Gumnut Cottage, host was responsive and it was an excellent plsce to stay.”

The Cottage was located in a delightful garden setting on a rural property fitted with beautiful log fire, fully equipped kitchen, comfortable loft bedroom, great shower. Close proximity to Daylesford and Hepburn Springs.

Penni was amazing host - we really enjoyed our stay! Super clean and fabulous location. Super quiet!
