Denny's & Lenny's combines modern with rustic charm. Retreat to the garden or firepit and gaze at the twinkling constellations or, soak in the hot tub with a cold beer or glass of wine. Allow the bird calls to interrupt your peaceful sleep and then take an early morning stroll or bike ride along the bush track metres from your door before heading back for a Nespresso coffee.
Then explore the city, originally a gold rush boom town, it's home to the mid-1900s Central Deborah Gold Mine, Vintage Talking Trams, that run through the city providing audio commentary on gold mining history, The Golden Dragon Museum celebrates the area's Chinese heritage through artefacts and artwork and, established in 1858, the Bendigo Pottery offers pot-making workshops and ceramics displays. Visit the Great Stupa of Universal Compassion, the most sacred building in buddhism, and the largest stupa in the Western World.
Bendigo has paddock-to-plate eateries, the Art Gallery houses blockbuster exhibitions which have included Marilyn Monroe and Elvis, stroll in the beautiful parks and gardens or explore some great boutique shopping. There are also plenty of activities for children.
Venture a little further from Bendigo and experience some of our many nearby wineries and our famous deep red shiraz.

Very comfortable beds and a beautiful, peaceful location, the perfect place to relax and unwind. Bronwyn was very responsive and helpful throughout our stay. We really enjoyed it.
Had the most relaxing and peaceful stay at Brownwyn's property. Everything was very neat and comfortable. Tranquil garden area to relax and enjoy the bushland behind the property. Was beautiful reading Denny and Lenny's life stories and how they inspired yourself and the property. Couldnt have asked for a better place to stay on our date weekend!
Fantastic. Such a beautiful, quiet, peaceful place to stay. Clean, neat and comfortable. Aircons and fans were great on a super hot weekend. Overall 10/10!!

Thank you Kathryn for treating our property with such great respect. We would welcome you back at anytime. You and your Mum were an absolute pleasure to host. Cheers
The place was immaculately clean and everything worked perfectly. The pretty little garden as well as the interior were really well designed and built. Air con was great as were bath and shower. Check in and out was super simple and Bronwyn even helped us out when we’d accidentally left something which we really appreciated. 10/10 would recommend.

Thank you Dylan. Much appreciated. Take care and cheers.
We spent 3 days in this accomodation as a family of 3. The host is very kind, generous and the property is extremely clean (inside and outside), new and modern with a very well designed garden. We can sit and unwind in the garden all day if weather and time permits. Location of the property is only a short distance drive from the city area. We would come back here in a heart beat in the next opportunity.
We stayed for two nights and overall had a pleasant experience. The property is immaculate, with charming and thoughtful touches throughout that really elevate the atmosphere.However, there were a few surprises that would have been helpful to know in advance—especially as a group of four. The listing didn’t mention that there’s no indoor lounge or communal indoor living space, which we had assumed there would be. All communal areas, including the dining table, are outdoors. While the fire pit and hot tub were definite highlights, the lack of an indoor gathering space made it a bit difficult to relax comfortably. Thankfully, we had great weather and enjoy sitting around a fire, but it might have been a different story if it had been cold or rainy.The kitchen was also quite limited, which made preparing meals a bit tricky. We ended up purchasing a frypan to cook breakfast on the compact induction cooktop provided, as only one pot was supplied.All in all, this is a beautiful place to stay—especially in good weather. If you're looking for a cozy, indoor winter retreat to hang out with friends, this may not be the best fit. But if you're excited by a more outdoor-focused, glamping-style in a house experience with a soft bed and luxurious touches, you won’t be disappointed.Thank you, Bronwyn, for helping make our weekend in Bendigo a memorable one.
