Newstead Gem of a House

This property is a new house equipped with all conveniences. Even a fully operational laundry and 2 coffee machines. The list goes on…..We really enjoyed our stay here. The cold nights were enhanced by heating in lounge and bedrooms along with electric blankets on the beds. All brand new.A butlers kitchen adjoined the kitchen lounge area.Newstead is a quaint town in central Victoria. Recommendation:You need to stay at least a couple of nights - longer would be better - to soak up the warmth of the hospitality and the home.
