Beautiful stay

We absolutely loved every bit of our stay, the house was amazing, clean and cosy. Geoff is a wonderful host. Loved waking up to kangaroos in the backyard and even in the evening they were still there. Definitely need to revisit again soon, as 2 nights wasnt long enough.

Truly restful

This was one of the best stays we have ever had. The property was amazing and the house well appointed for everything you could want. The owner was friendly and very helpful and even left a very nice basket of treats for us. Highly recommended, we will be staying here again.

A beautiful home for a relaxing holiday

Thanks Geoff for a wonderful stay. Your home is gorgeous and we loved the peaceful location. The balcony was perfect to enjoy dinner and a glass of bubbles whilst watching the wildlife. We hope to come back again.

Secluded Serene

From the time we booked till we left the house the entire process was exceptionally smooth. Geoff has been very welcoming, friendly and with a lot of tips on the locality. We enjoyed staying in the house and will likely return in future.

Wonderful Relaxing Stay

Bluegums is just an amazing property. Well decorated and set up for a very comfortable stay. We have stayed at other places in Hepburn but none have been any where near as good as Bluegums. My husband loved it and so did the children. Loved the "welcome" hamper of local goodies - a really nice touch. And the spa tub is more than big enough for two!

Fantabulous

Amazing hospitality for reassuringly well prepared hosts. Such a well maintained cottage with all the mod cons to keep you warm and cosy for a lovely winter retreat. Great tips on what to do in the area but also provisions if you want to stay inside and while away the hours in the beautiful surroundings and peace and quiet. Have already booked for next year as can;t wait to do it again asap.

Amazing place to relax and see Daylesford and surrounds

We went as a family of 6 (including grandparents and kids). Really nice house and amazing setting. Kangaroos and kookaburras appear in the backyard on a nightly basis and we spent most nights on the veranda. Very comfortable set up and everything you need. Geoff was great to deal with and super helpful. Would book again no problem.

Simply the best

No need to look any further. We are big users of STAYZ for Hepburn, and this property is by far the best we have come across in both Hepburn and Daylesford. The owner made booking so easy and was very helpful with things to do and restaurants to go to. The welcome hamper made the start of our stay very welcoming. We loved the little soaps! And it was so nice to lay in bed at night and look out at the stars through the skylight. You definately need to try this place!

Beautiful, Peaceful, Cozy yet Spacious

We had our second stay at Bluegums and loved every minute of it. The kids really enjoyed the soccer table in the downstairs playroom and running around in the gardens. The two living areas with the TV's was perfect, Netflix provided, 3 fireplaces, the house is so toasty and warm. We felt so relaxed, a home away from home. If you love to stay in and not go anywhere this is a perfect place to do just that. We felt very spoilt with the beautiful hamper on arrival and the gorgeous smelling toiletries. A beautiful property, you will not be disappointed.

Beautiful Bluegums!

Bluegums Retreat is a beautiful property , tucked away in a wonderful quiet neighbourhood. Lots of roos & a little duckling family kept us entertained. We loved Eddie the Emu & we put the garden light on each night so we could see him. Beds were extremely comfy & the kitchen's cooking facilities were superb! Cannot speak highly enough about everything in this home - the owner 's generous hamper of goodies, champers & chocs plus lit fires & lights on certainly welcomed us on our arrival. Would definitely return. Thanks Geoff for your hospitality & pls pass on our thanks to your cleaner. A very clean & welcoming home. Michelle, Sally, Heidi & Wendy

A DREAM!

I genuinely don’t even think I have the words to describe how magical this house is. Not only is it beautiful, but the attention to detail in everything made the entire experience hands down one of my most memorable ones in years. We definitely will be back many many more times!

Warm and relaxing retreat

Bluegums is a beautiful property! It was the perfect place for our family to catch up and truly unwind. Kids loved exploring the surrounding bush land and keeping an eye on the local kangaroos. After a day of exploring Daylesford and the surrounding region, coming home to a roaring log fire and cooking for loved ones is my idea of bliss. And all the bedrooms are beautifully furnished, and have comfy beds. Morning coffees on the daybed - sublime! Thanks for being such a helpful host Geoff, and we really appreciate the warm arrival. We would love to return one day, and would recommend Bluegums to others.

Beautiful Time

Blue Gums Retreat is in an amazing location that central to both Hepburn Springs and Dayelsford. The property has everything that you could require for a relaxing holiday. The property owner was incredibly helpful, communicating with us regularly during our stay with helpful local knowledge of what to do and where to go. I cant recommend both this area and the Blue Gums Retreat highly enough. Thank you for the memories.
