The Manse

A wonderfully unique stay at the Manse. We thoroughly enjoyed our time there. super comfy bed, very considerate offering gluten free breakfast options for my husband.

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!

Historic building with an interesting character - walk to just about anything in Daylesford.

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.

A most enjoyable stay, with many thoughtful touches and generous provisions.

Apart not providing bread with breakfast food it was great and comfortable.

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.

Had a great time here for a couple of days with my husband. Helen was lovely and very friendly and helpful The Manse is a great place for a cosy winter stay
