Tasma House Daylesford Family/Groups - up to 16

Hi Krishantha, bathrooms in the main house have been upgraded. Thank you for bringing the issue to our attention. It was difficult to find a non booked time to do the required work at first, but COVID provided plenty of down time, and a chance to do the renovations. Regards, Adrian.

Thank you Elizabeth for bringing your bunch to stay at Tasma House. So good to share country comfort again. Simple pleasures are still the best. Regards, Adrian.

Thank you Sally, for bringing your extended family to stay. Your kind comments are very much appreciated.

I am sorry to hear that you did not find that Tasma House met your expectations. I am glad that you found the beds comfortable, the location good, and that you enjoyed unlimited hot water in the bathrooms for your group of 20. The cost of your stay, between Christmas and New Year, in Daylesford, was less than $100 per head, per night, which includes GST, and Stayz fees, but it seems that this fee has displeased you, and that you needed to voice that displeasure publicly. “To be honest”, I find your review of Tasma House dismissive, unkind, and certainly not the feedback we generally receive. The photos on our listing are exactly what is provided. Tasma House has been enjoyed by family groups for 100 years. It is also our home. It is quirky, vintage, rustic, creative, and a unique property, especially loved by children. Each room has been photographed for our listing, without fancy lenses or styled for an advertisement. It’s certainly not for everyone, and there are luckily, many places to choose from across Victoria, if Tasma House does not suit your particular aesthetic. It is not perfect, precious, commercial, or modern. It does not have, or advertise air conditioning, but it does have an acre of shaded gardens courtyards, a pond, and covered verandahs for people to enjoy the country air. It is cool in the evenings, [less than 10 degrees] due to being in the Victorian Highlands. Tasma House does not have a dishwasher, or advertise one. With a group of 20 people, there is great opportunity to share family chores and enjoy time together. My own family have grown up here, and there are no dishwashers by choice. Old things that you call junk, others may view as treasures, or vintage/nostalgic items mean't to spark memory. Some of the furnishings are old and well loved, but they are definitely cleaned and prepared with care for each group that visits. Anne you do not mention that your group of 20 people, who stayed for four nights sounded like they were having a lot of fun together. You don't mention the commercial espresso machine , or the in ground trampoline, or the Artist designed and revitalized historic Daylesford guesthouse that has some families coming back many times over the years. You can’t please everyone I guess, and my wife and I, and our staff certainly try our best to please. I suggest a hotel, motel, or a commercial establishment would suit you and your bunch better in future.
