About this property

El Camino Fireplace and Spa

Perched high on Elevated Plains with sweeping views across miles of countryside, El Camino Cottage at Bella Vista Villas is a serene two-storey, one-bedroom retreat just minutes from Hepburn Springs and Daylesford.

This is a place where you can truly switch off. Wake to soft morning light spilling across the hills, watch kangaroos graze at dusk, and soak in a luxurious two-person spa bath framed by a picture window that captures the landscape perfectly.

Spend slow afternoons on your private terrace under the shady gazebo, dine beneath the vine-covered outdoor area, or curl up beside the Ned Kelly wood-burning fire with a glass of wine. Set amongst 5½ acres of elevated grounds, El Camino offers beautiful countryside views and a front-row seat to native wildlife including kangaroos, kookaburras and echidnas.

Inside, you’ll find a comfortable king-size bed with quality linen and towels, a fully equipped kitchen with stove, oven, fridge/freezer and microwave, a large TV, and reverse-cycle heating and cooling for year-round comfort.

Whether you’re here for a romantic weekend, a restorative week away or simply to breathe in the quiet beauty of the countryside, El Camino Cottage offers the perfect blend of comfort, tranquillity and unforgettable views.

El Camino is one of three separate, self-contained stays at Bella Vista Villas, set across 5½ acres of beautiful elevated grounds. Also located on the property are Avalon and Oscars, each offering its own private accommodation and outdoor areas.
