Such a lovely and quiet place. Rooms clean & modern, wildlife abundant & close to the local pub! Price for the night is much more reasonable than expected for the type of property (you’d expect something less modern for the price). We loved it here, we didn’t use any services just stayed the night but had we been staying longer I would have.

The host Sarah was more than accommodating. We stayed in a lovely cabin with views of the surrounds, kangaroos grazing as the sun started to leave us. Everything in the way of breakfast was provided for us to help ourselves. Main kitchen well stocked and there was also a huge spa. It was lovely and relaxing and exceptionally quiet just as we liked after a long drive. Thank you very much Sarah, the cabin was cozy and comfortable and just what we were looking for. Recommend a stay out here for sure, especially take a few friends and enjoy some time around the fire pit of an evening and relax

Room was clean & had most of what i needed, except milk in the fridge for my morning & night coffee. Area around the shed accomodation could be improved/weeded....& if you know your having a visitor into one of the stand alone metal accomodation rooms, you could at least sweep off all the cob webs from around the entrance door.

Disliked: Staff & service
I arrived late about 6.25pm, and had been told my room was number 1 off the kitchen/lounge area, and to make myself at home. I went out to a meeting and got back about 9.30pm. My room was clean and comfortable. Breakfast was continental and serve yourself. This was disappointing - I had breakfast of toast and honey which was all I could find. I do not eat wheeties! I left the property at 9.45am, and did not see or speak with anyone at all. I would not go back again.

Good value for the price, but not flash

As this is budget accommodation what you get for the price is reasonable, we enjoyed our stay and would consider staying there again, but don't expect anything flash based on the "Retreat & Day Spa" name. We stayed in a room that was attached to the common lounge and kitchen. This wasn't something we were expecting as the room description didn't mention it. It has its pros and cons. Pro is you are close to kitchen for coffee and any cooking you want to do. Con is that others use the lounge area which is right outside your door, and they can be very noisy. The location was great, halfway between Heathcote and Bendigo. Some small things that could be improved 1. the kitchen tea towels were not absorbant and were not changed for the 3 days we were there 2. the kitchen fridge has the door on backward for the space, switching this to open the other way would make a HUGE difference it the ability to use it 3. brecky options were very basic. Bread for toast, butter and small amount of strawberry jam. no other spreads available. Strawberry jam ran out and was never replaced. 2 cereal options which were very basic. 4. spa tub was basically not useable. The water was too low (at least 10 cm below the minimum mark), and the temperature was too cold. I am guessing it was set at 39-40 degrees, whereas most spa's start at 42-44 degrees. 5. rooms only came with 1 towel each and we had to ask for more towels to use with the spa. Rooms should come with 2 each to cater for this without asking.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Beautiful area but was let down on the cleanliness and facilities. The white bedding had brown stains all over and cob webs in the bath room. On multiple websites it stated their was a spa for guest use, despite this not being the case. The info in our room also stated breakfast basket apon arrival as well as spa for guest to use, neither which were true. Little things can make a big impact, for example, it would have been nice when we came to our room after a hot day for the air con to be on, not to arrive and have to wait half hour for our room to be comfortable enough to enter. The property has wonderful potential with some better attention to detail.
