Pleasant Stay
Everything we needed was provided. In spite of very cold wet weather we were warm and cosy inside. The layout of the living areas and bedrooms were good and had plenty of room. Host was very punctual in responding to our questions

Perfect location, spotless home
Absolutely adored our stay at Blue Jay. A perfect 2bedder within walking distance to all the main venues in Daylesford. The home was spotless and well presented. We stayed in winter and the home was easy to warm and felt very comfortable. The kitchen was well appointed and made home cooking easy. The water pressure is fabulous in the shower! Little children will need help reaching the bathroom taps but the space was otherwise child friendly. We will happily return again soon.

A WONDERFUL EXPERIENCE
We arrived at what appeared to be a small, neat older style home unit in a nice street. Opened the door… music was playing, the heating was turned on and the essential oil diffuser wafted a lovely aroma... What an EXCEPTIONAL home! We have stayed in a number of places in Daylesford over the years, but this is the best! Jo has done a superlative renovation job, using top quality materials and decor items to create one of the most beautiful, comprehensively equipped places we have stayed in. The spacious longe/dining area has vaulted ceilings and big windows to let the light in. There are beautiful comfortable lounge chairs, a simulated log fire, a huge TV…too many extras to list. The bedrooms are warm and comfy. The bathroom is ultra modern. The kitchen is a dream with a huge double door fridge, glass cooktop, new oven and stacks of utensils, modern cutlery and crockery. Jo is a considerate, helpful and delightful host. For example: the microwave died and Jo delivered a new replacement that very afternoon. She is so positive. We had the BEST, most COMFORTABLE week here. It’s impossible to list all the extra inclusions that made this stay unique for us. Thank you Jo for a marvellous stay. We hope to return next year.

Wonderful first visit
We travelled to Daylesford for the first time in search of relaxation. A slight hiccup when Jo got mixed up with the dates, (thinking we were coming the next day) however we just went for afternoon tea and browsed the lovely stores for a couple of hours until it was ready. The recently renovated inside of the property was extremely clean and exceeded expectations, don’t be put off by the outside. It was a very quiet neighborhood and us two girls felt safe. If I had to find any (slight) negatives, the beds are on the soft side (Dani’s for rooms appreciated)and the seating options in the lounge are all uncomfortable, particularly when you want to lounge around after the many massages and treatments Daylesford has on offer. We would both, however recommend this property and stay again.

very comfortable property
ignore the front of the house. Jo, the owner, has modernized the property with new kitchen, bathroom with modern appliances and fittings. the bed is comfortable. the furnishings are conservative but tasteful with two large armchairs, couch and glasstop dining table with 6 cloth covered chairs. the kitchen utensils and crockery are not ordinary but stylish. Jo has given a lot of thought to the inside. the house is also not far from the main street and various restaurants. we recommend it.
