Beautiful old country georgian house in a peaceful country setting.Traditional bed and breakfast included in price.Lovely cheese platters and pizza you can order.Filled with antique furniture .Friendly service from staff.Needs a few maintenance updates to bring back to its former glory to get 5 stars!!

Another beautiful stay at Koendidda house.Thank you so much Julie for the lovely cheese platter and awesome breakfast.Year after year we return to this beautiful peaceful relaxing house for the great service we receive.

Koendidda is a tranquil retreat...a great place to return to after visiting the nearby wineries. Host, Sammi and puppy Shelby were very welcoming and attentive. Enjoyed the well appointed rooms, great breakfast and loved having a wine on the balcony.Thanks, Ivano & Liz

My wife and I have just ended a memorable five day stay at the elegant Grand Old Lady Country house called Koendidda, built in the 1860s. Today, it is still in great condition and offers very comfortable accommodation.Set back from a gravel road and well away from a sealed road, with no other dwellings nearby and surrounded by farm land, you get to experience only the sounds of country life.The mansion is full of paintings and beautiful antique furniture from another era. The dining room tables are some 200 years old and in beautiful condition. As soon as you enter through the front door, you are stunned by the incredibly wide hallway, very high ceilings and very wide skirting boards and architraves. The rooms are all very large and comfortably furnished and we enjoyed a cosy fire in the evenings.The house is set amongst a variety of mature trees, some of which were stunning with autumn colours. On the east side are many comfortable cane chairs to sit in to enjoy the morning sun.Lastly, our experience would not have been the same without the wonderful host, Sammi. She is so friendly and helpful and a people's person. And a mention has to be made of her Cavoodle, Shelby and black cat, Luna who gave us so much pleasure when we were around them. We enjoyed breakfast in the elegant dining room where a cooked breakfast was served as well as continental.Our experience at Koendidda would be rated right up there as one of the best. We thank you Sammi for being a great host and to get to know you.Kamil and Pam Gomularz

Hi Sammi, Lyn and I had a wonderful stay at Koendidda, thanks to your help and advice and looking after all our needs. The property has been well maintained thanks to your ongoing attention. Knowing Lyn loves the character of these old properties, I was very happy to find yours, and it makes for a great stay with someone like you. Regards Lyn and Harry

Firstly l must say Sammi is the most wonderful manager this property could employ. For her 5 stars. Unfortunately NO WAY is this once beautiful grand old house anywhere near that rating. The owners need to spend BIG bucks on bringing the house up to the standard it should be. To charge the price they do is not in keeping with other beautiful similar properties in Victoria .

We had the most wonderful stay here! We can't rate this place more highly. Samantha is absolutely a beautiful person and a great hostess and was so warm and welcoming. Shelby the puppy is adorable :) The grounds are better than the botanical gardens and we loved the place so much we barely left the property the whole weekend, despite having plans of visiting the local region and wineries. We preferred to sit on the balcony and drink wine and have a cheese platter (which you can purchase on property). Just a delightful stay all around. Huge thanks to Samantha (and Shelby and Luna the cat).

Beautiful garden. Lovely house. Comfortable room. Nice bed and toiletries. Yummy cooked breakfast. Would be great if they maintained the garden and the house a bit more. Balcony seats were dusty and had stains. Could have avoided easily by covering it or placing a throw rug. Pets are allowed. Glad they open their house so we can experience a bit of country house atmosphere. A bit too pricey. $ 200 to & $ 220 would be more reasonable.
