About this property

Edessa Lodge-quiet and tranquil

Escape to Edessa Lodge, the perfect retreat for those seeking tranquillity less than 10 minutes from Daylesford.

Nestled amid a forest of trees, this rustic 2-bedroom, 2-level property in Wheatsheaf offers a cozy wood-burning fireplace, a well-equipped kitchenette with a microwave, coffee plunger, and a relaxing lounge with a TV and bathroom on the ground level. Upstairs, you'll find two queen bedrooms and an additional toilet, both have split systems.

Connected to the owner's residence but with a separate entrance, Edessa Lodge offers privacy to immerse yourself in the serene surroundings. The property features a covered outdoor area, a BBQ, and a charming dam where you can feed the ducks. Please note that due to its location, some mobile phone services may have limited connectivity.

Nestled in the stunning central Victoria region, you're conveniently close to both Daylesford and the charming village of Glenlyon, known for its delightful old-world café. Guests with mobility concerns should be aware of a staircase leading to the second level, where the bedrooms are situated.

Don't wait—book a break at Edessa Lodge and treat yourself to the relaxation you deserve!

Ah the tranquility
We had a restful and peaceful stay at Edessa, just what we were after. The cottage was lovely and very comfortable, it was cold and raining outside but we were cosy and snug inside looking out at the wonderful views of bush and wildlife. A short distance from Daylesford and other towns in the area, we had the best of both worlds. Thanks

Beautiful
Got the warmest welcome from the hosts with a roaring fire, place was toasty. Enjoy this property nestled among the gum trees, lots of kookaburras, kangaroos in the garden at dusk and fall asleep to the sound of the frogs in the lake. It's tempting to just curl up in front of the log fire but it's a great base for visiting Daylesford and beyond. Loved it.

Beautiful Property
Beautiful property in a nice peaceful location. The property had everything we needed, very comfortable beds, all the kitchen amenities the we required, spacious bedrooms (enough space for our portacot for the baby) lovely sitting areas indoors and outdoors and lovely gardens with Kangaroos, ducks & goats. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
