Second stay at Benstay!

Once again a great stay, great for our dog as the courtyard is enclosed and she loves it. Location is excellent just a short walk to Weeroona Lake. Quiet at night, so a good nights sleep is definitely on the cards

Neat property with quiet surrounds.

We found the unit suitable for us and our dog. The lake was in walking distance. Maybe an update of the BBQ would e good with the warmer weather coming. Our stay was most enjoyable with so many things to see and do in Bendigo.

Benstay for a relaxing time

Lovely and quiet with Lake Weeroona across the road. We took our dog with us as there is a fully fenced area at the back of the property. For us it was a perfect location and it had everything you would want, comfy bed, great shower and a very comfortable lounge. We’ll definitely stay at Benstay again.
