Lady Marmalade Daylesford a Luxurious Getaway with all you need

LADY MARMALADE - Daylesford

Lady Marmalade is a super cosy, luxury retreat with 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms & views across to the Daylesford Convent & Wombat Hill. Main street's restaurants, cafes, bars & shops are a 5-7 minute walk away while Lake Daylesford is 10-12 minutes.

She has an oversized en-suite with stand-alone spa & Aurora Day Spa products. A log fire, A/C, ducted heating, well equipped country kitchen, free WiFi, Bluetooth sound system, Streaming, large screen TV, record player, vinyls & board games to play.

Set amongst a large peaceful garden the cascading block has many parts to enjoy. The garden evolves through the seasons and the balcony faces North and East with views across to Wombat Hill. Perfect for watching the birdlife fly over and the incredible stars at night. The side covered decking is protected from the elements and is home to an outdoor lounge setting lit with festoon lighting and the gassed up BBQ.

Lady Marmalade is comfortable all year round. Daylesford can experience the extreme weather and so the Lady is equipped with double glazed windows and doors, ducted heating throughout and a log fire to get all cuddly with. There are A/C's in each bedroom and the main living area for the warmer months.

Each bedroom can be configured to 1 King Bed or 2 Singles. This gives our home flexibility to accommodate four single people or 2 couples or a combination. Please let us know when you book so we can prepare the rooms to your needs. The first bedroom has a brand new en-suite (which was recently built from the third bedroom, so it is huge). The en-suite has a 12 jet stand alone spa, double vanity, drenching & powerful rain shower and toilet. The second bathroom has been built in the last 5 years and has a large powerful shower, vanity and separate toilet. We use Aurora Day Spa products in both bathrooms.

All linens and towels are provided for your comfort.

Our kitchen is fully stocked with all the implements, crockery, glassware and cooking utensils needed (even a cocktail shaker and martini glasses). Our favourite recipe books and good knives (with sharpener) for the more serious cooks out there. We have a small pantry with essentials like S & P, some herbs, spices, spreads, oil and sauces as well as a welcome surprise or two. A range of loose leaf organic teas and Nespresso coffee machine & pods are also supplied. Of course we have a dishwasher - who wants to do dishes when they are away?

The round dining table has seating for four which looks out to Wombat Hill. The living area was built to be cosy. Whether it be playing board games at the coffee table while sitting on cushions or watching the 50 inch TV which swivels to suit the room. The TV is hooked into the internet and Lady Marmalade has Netflix, Stan, Disney, HayU & Prime streaming accounts (how modern). We have Chromecast for those wanting to stream their own programs from their device. The Yamaha sound bar is wifi and Bluetooth enabled so you can stream all your own music and it makes any movie sound incredible. Or you can go "old-school" and relax to our eclectic vinyl collection of oldies. Free NBN Wifi is available for guests. The log fire is easy to start and maintain and is perfect for the colder months.

We are dog lovers. Our own dogs, Cooper and Chops love Lady Marmalade and so we have created our home to welcome well behaved dogs and owners. The home is not suited to dogs over 15 kilos (sorry our garden and floor boards can't cope). The backyard is dog proof with secure gates. We ask you to follow our house rules concerning your fur babies.

The garden is our pride and joy. Guests are welcome to pick and use our edible garden treats while they are with us.

Smoking is permitted outside only.

WHEN YOU ARE BOOKING:
We love to know a few more details about the people staying at Lady Marmalade so please let us know about your group, how you would like the beds configured and if you are brining your pooch - and what kind.

Beautifully presented in a great location.
Communication from James was excellent and the house is only 10 to 15 minutes walk from the centre of Daylesford. The house was spotlessly clean throughout and the garden is delightful. Would have loved to stay longer!

Lady Perfection.
I cant thank you enough James for my beautiful stay at Lady Marmalade. Your lady is faultless. I loved everything about your property from the perfect location to the gorgeous furnishings and adorable garden. I came home feeling so relaxed after soaking in the beautiful bath, sleeping in a gorgeous bed and watching the stars from your balcony. I didn't even turn the TV on because I was so in love with the record player, thank you for taking me back to the great music. (Cat Stevens was a favourite.) I am even more grateful for making my little four legged friend feel so welcome. Rosie just adored your garden and playing ball, she was so safe because of your fabulous fencing. All of your special touches makes your lady shine, from the superb bathroom products to everything you needed in a pantry. We didn't want to leave and thank you so much for letting us both share your Lady with us. (Did take the marmalade home just to remember you.) Please let us come back, Lisa and Rosie.

A real gem in the town
We stayed just two nights but could have stayed for weeks. The lovely home is very modern inside and beautifully detailed. The house has EVERYTHING you could want including fully detailed bathrooms. The master bedroom ensuite is huge even better than you would expect in a five star hotel. The kitchen is large and extremely well stocked (not food) with cupboards with all the crockery and electrical items you could want. Nothing was missing for a family to move in and start living. Immaculately looked after, a real gem.

About the host

Hosted by James English

Host profile image
We love travelling and we love to getaway on the weekend. We are devoted dog owners and just adore the outdoors, the country and experiencing as much as we can with the short time on earth we are given.

Why they chose this property

We have been coming to the Daylesford area for over 20 years and in 2016 we finally bought our own plot we can call our own. We fell in love with the property because of her views across to Wombat Hill, her location to town, her stunning garden and her layout. We then proceeded to spend 4 months slowly converting her for the weekender market. Everything we loved from the many properties we have stayed in we placed into Lady Marmalade. We continue to add more comforts and we have the best of both worlds. We can share her with other appreciative travellers and we also get to enjoy her ourselves. We named her Lady Marmalade because we bought her from a lovely lady who renovated her and planted a beautiful garden including a unique orange tree (which is very rare in Daylesford). Hence why she became Lady Marmalade.

What makes this property unique

Her views, privacy, beautiful garden. She is a short walk to town. Super cosy with double glazed windows, fire place, ducted heating as well as A/C through out. She is tricked up with Free NBN wifi and we have tried to provide all creature comforts including Aurora Day Spa amenities, scented candles, Netflix, Nespresso pod machine, organic loose leaf teas and kitchen stocked with essentials. We provide our own tips to the area for all guests.
