About this property
BIDWELL COTTAGE, a charming hideaway close to Lake Daylesford
Bidwell is a peaceful country retreat in the heart of Daylesford, set privately at the back of a leafy garden allotment on a quiet no-through-road that leads down to Lake Daylesford. It is very close to the famous Amazing Mill Markets antiques emporium, and within walking distance of both the Lake and Daylesford’s main street with its shops, restaurants and cafes.
The cottage has a woodburning heater with complimentary firewood supplied for your first night in the cottage. A powerful new split-system air conditioner has recently been installed. As well as the queen-size bed in the bedroom, there is a double sofa bed in the lounge. Free WiFi is provided, as well as the Netflix and Stan streaming services on the smart TV.
The long west-facing deck has outdoor seating and a gas barbecue. There is ample on-site parking available.
Pets are very welcome at Bidwell Cottage, including inside the house. The garden is securely fenced. We ask that dogs do not go on sofas or beds; if you can't prevent this, please bring along your own blankets/throws to protect our furnishings.

About the host
Hosted by Anthony

Hi, I'm Anthony! After living in London for many years, we decided to move to Melbourne for a lifestyle change. And then, after just 2 years in the city, we decided on a tree change in the Daylesford/Hepburn Springs area, as we had holidayed here previously and fell in love with it, as it has both European and Australian characteristics and charms. I run the holiday let businesses with the help of my partner Andrew. I am more hands-on with cleaning and preparing our cottages for guests and greeting them and making sure everything is to their liking. Andrew is more behind the scenes, ensuring our reservations system and other IT systems and facilities are working well. We make a great team and love welcoming new and returning guests to experience our cottages and all that the beautiful Daylesford/Hepburn Springs region has to offer.
