Clunes is a small town with some lovely hilly walks and beautiful scenery. The accommodation is indoor focussed, beautifully renovated and very well equipped. The town has quite a laid back lifestyle.

The Perfect Clunes Stay!

We loved our stay in this beautiful home! It was exactly as advertised. The house was pristine, beautifully appointed and incredibly clean. It is a 5 minute walk into the heart of Clunes and in a quiet spot. Everything you need is at the house including heating and cooling. Beds were super comfortable too. Highly recommend this property!
