We had a wonderful week at Tessies House. The setting was quiet and the house itself is very comfortable with everything you could possibly need. A lovely fully fenced garden was enjoyed by all as were the miles of walks nearby.
Lorraine B., Taylors Lakes – April, 2010 – 2nd VISIT

Janet & John C., Cockatoo, February, 2010
It is the perfect environment for the entire family to have a holiday together - including the 4 legged parts. We all loved the freedom both inside and outside. It was wonderful watching our pet have so much fun in a secure, safe area. Also being able to take her for long walks along the river was fantastic.

Carolyn A., Toolamba - December, 2009
This is our 3rd visit to the Studio – whenever we can escape from our own accommodation business we flee for a couple of days to the tranquility of the Studio. The bed is fantastic – the privacy is total – and there is a ton of space for Jasper, our little friend, to play in safety. Close to everything, spotlessly clean and so reasonably priced. Well done guys.
Kitty & Malcolm S., Daylesford, November, 2009 – 3RD VISIT- NEXT ONE BOOKED
Tessies House is in a wonderful position close to riverside walks/parks and an easy walk in to town. The presentation and cleanliness of this house is superb – absolutely no evidence of either humans or dogs having been here before us. The large secure garden was great for both humans and pets.
Joy & John S., Mansfield - November, 2009
The house is really large enough to cater for the 3 generations of our family that stayed. The “elders” took the studio and escaped down there when they had had enough of rowdy grandchildren. The facilities are first rate – top quality all around. An absolute pleasure to stay here. We were booked in for 3 days and stayed for 5. Love it.
Bonnie & Peter M., Williamstown – November, 2009 ALREADY BOOKED AGAIN
It has everything we needed for a dog friendly holidayincluding dog sitting when needed. The palce was thoroughly clean and very comfortable. It is in a great location close to the river and in a beautiful setting.
Helen R., Bentleigh East – October, 2009
The Studio Apartment was spacious and very, very clean. There is lots of room in the back yard for Bailey our Border Collie to play. Lovely surrounds. Our time was very relaxing.
Peter & Leanne L., Croydon – October, 2009
Tessies is a home away from home with everything you could possibly wish for. The position close to town and the river is superb. We were all made to feel very welcome which is most important for my time away.
Vera T., Frankston – September, 2009
The accommodation is 100% pet friendly – everything you could possibly think of. Perfect for humans too.
Dennis L., Bentleigh – August, 2009

Leonie R., Long Beach, N.S.W. – June, 2009

Trudi J. – Hurstbridge – May 2009
Tessies is a home away from home for all of us. It was beautifully presented and was so easy to have a great holiday in such wonderful surroundings.
John C., Aspendale – May, 2009
Tessies Studio is a beautifully appointed apartment with added little touches and attention to detail. We will come again and recommend Tessies to others.
Jenny & Brian R., Ringwood – April, 2009
It is not often that you can find a dog friendly place that is comfy modern and completely dog friendly both inside and out as well as central with a secure yard. All this and a king sized bed!! A short stroll into the main street of town and surrounded by absolutely beautiful mountains and flowing rivers. This is a really great holiday destination.
Amanda D. – Glen Waverley – March, 2009 (Tessies Studio)
This house has everything – and it’s all new, modern and clean. Eight of us stayed and because the house is sooo spacious we had the most relaxing time never getting in each others way. Everything is of the highest quality – and those beds are so comfortable. Someone really cares about this place. They even have yoga mats and yoga videos to help you relax. We have already booked for my husbands birthday next year. Well done.
Carol & Charlie S. – South Yarra – March, 2009
What a great place – walk to town but still be quiet in your own garden. Everything is here that you need and it is all so clean and new. Lovely owners. We will be back
Gail & Peter B. – Beaumaris – February, 2009
The accommodation is very clean and stylish. Lots of things to do for all the family. Customer service was very friendly and helpful.
Jenn & Chris J. – Williamston – January, 2009
The owners and keepers of this property keep it exceptionally clean and they provide service beyond the call of duty.
They offered to mind our puppy as we could not take her to the National park on our afternoon outing. Very welcoming and service oriented.
June T – Forest Hill – January, 2009
Once again we have had a fantastic experience in Bright. The facilities are excellent and cannot be faulted. The walks are wonderful and the town most friendly.
Katie W. – Tallygaroopna – January, 2009 2nd VISIT
If you could award a property more than 10 out of 10 then Tessies Studio would qualify. The cleanliness and presentation is beyond compare.
Barry B. – Dromana – January, 2009
We arrived from warm sunny Queensland to a cold, wet Victoria for our holiday. Tessies had been recommended and it didn't disappoint. It has a very nice feel to it and we shall certainly return if we are in Bright again.
Adele H - Garbutt, Qld - August, 2008
I love the feeling of being at home whilst away from home. At Tessies we felt at home instantly as we walked in the door. After one hour it felt like we had been there a day - and a weekend felt like a week - now that's a holiday.
Helen B. - Mitcham - August, 2008
The high quality of the accommodation was amazing . It was clean and really stylish. I am very impressed and look forward to returning.
Hilary O - Croydon - July, 2008
I wish to congratulate Tessies on being a clean and modern furnished holiday house. We have stayed in much holiday accommodation across Victoria and this is by far THE BEST!
Nicole F. - Mitcham - June, 2008
They had a water bowl there for my dog. I remembered everything for his bed and food bowls but I forgot his water bowl. But I didn't have to worry as they had supplied it.
Sam B. - Donvale - June, 2008
We stayed in Autumn to see the change of the trees and season, We are now planning to stay in every other season as well because it was so good. We loved that we were just a short walk from town and that we felt welcome in a house that wasn't ours.
Rosie B. - Blackburn - May, 2008
Modern, clean and beautifully furnished accommodation. The children did not want to leave. Thanks very much.
Kate C. - Barjarl - May, 2008
We had such a great time we didn't want to go home. At Tessies there is everything that you could want. From extremely comfortable accommodation to fabulous walks along the river not to mention all the restaurants and cafes and fresh mountain air.
Jeanette P. - Berwick - May, 2008
Great open plan living space and perfectly decked out.
Sean Y. - Chelsea - April, 2008

The house has everything you could need - and all clean and new. It is all set in the most beautiful setting close to town, shops and the river - and yet still so quiet and peaceful.
Cameron M. - Point Cook - April, 2008
Tessies is very well set up - very comfortable and user friendly. A high standard of accommodation in a quiet neighbourhood.

Although the property was dog friendly you would never know - the house was immaculate when we arrived. It has a secure dog friendly back garden and even offered a doggy sitting service. We were all made feel very welcome
Carol T. - Newport - April, 2008
1st class accommodation in a quiet court location. Five minutes walk to town . We found a secluded river spot within a few hundred metres of Tessies. We would definitely come back to Tessies. It is rare to find such nice furniture in a holiday rental.
Royce & Sharon J. – Preston – March, 2008
A truly wonderful place. Absolute heaven. Hope to return and will recommend highly. Congratulations.
