The Weekender - A Victorian Cottage with a Modern Makeover
Stay in a house straight out of the pages of an interiors magazine. Featured on the cover of Inside Out magazine (October 2015) and in Houzz, The Weekender was a labour of love for its Interior Designer owner.
This home exudes warmth and personality. You'll relax and feel instantly at home here. A huge stone freestanding bath adds a touch of decadence whilst the gourmet kitchen and adjacent dining area are well equipped for creating celebration feasts and memorable meals. Dine-in on a cosy winters night or open the French doors and enjoy the large garden and fresh country air.
Featuring work from some of Australia's best-loved designers including Mark Tuckey, Belynda Henry, Pop and Scott, Rachel Castle and Tamara Maynes, you'll appreciate the love and attention to detail that has gone into creating this very special Daylesford accommodation property.
Three beautiful appointed bedrooms offer the choice of three king beds or six singles making The Weekender the ideal space for couples, girls weekends, friends or family groups. Fine textures and expertly sourced decorating items blend to make this a home away from home and so much more.
Stroll down to the lake or into town to one of Daylesford's great restaurants, cafes and eclectic shops, or simply stay in and enjoy the comfort of a beautifully and thoughtfully renovated cottage.
Bedding: All bedrooms have king-sized beds that can be split into 2 x singles if needed. We will contact you when your booking is received to confirm your preferred bedding configuration.
Payment: Please note credit card surcharges apply when paying by Visa, Mastercard or Amex.
