Location is great, very peaceful. Close to country towns and Bendigo. Lovely hosts
AustraliaWe were so impressed with our accomodation and it exceeded our expections. Virginia and Peter were excellent hosts who couldn’t do enough for you but also didn’t interrupt your personal space.
AustraliaChocolate Lily was the perfect getaway to enjoy some quiet time. The accommodation was extremely comfortable with lots of personal touches. Virginia was the perfect host and provided a delicious breakfast from her farm produce. Would definitely recommend to those looking for a few days away to enjoy the Victorian countryside.
AustraliaSo clean and well appointed. Beautiful breakfast with home baked bread. Every little detail was attended to. Local area had lovely wineries, cideries and General Store with fresh local produce.
AustraliaSpotless accommodation and very comfortably furnished. Comfortable bed and great shower. Nice breakfast left out with homemade bread and fresh eggs. Cooking facilities and BBQ had everything we needed. Use of pool a nice addition and very welcome on a warm day. Thanks for a great stay.
New ZealandBeautiful setting and amazingly comfortable stay. The hosts were fantastic and we loved the attention to detail and small snacks provided. Really special B&B. I'll definitely be back.
AustraliaSuch a beautiful location, quiet, peaceful. Will definitely return again, next time with my family, I think they will love the pool and the small townships close by.
AustraliaLocation was beautiful, hosts were lovely, the home made bread was yummy. The hosts policy of recycling and reducing waste was inline with our own. We hope to return for longer next year. Thank you
AustraliaSuch a relaxing and beautiful place to stay. We were so warm and cosy! Breakfast provisions were delicious (homemade bread and eggs from their chickens!) and Vivian even gave us a beautiful tasting plate and afternoon tea - so special! Lovely walks and wineries nearby and a great place to stay and explore Castlemaine and Bendigo.
AustraliaReally enjoyed our short stay, very relaxing. Thank you Virginia
