Centrally located and beautifully renovated, Albert Cottage is a charming 3-bedroom, 1.5 bathroom dog-friendly property with a secure yard, just 100 metres from the main street of Daylesford.

Built in the 1850s, this historic miner’s cottage is full of character, featuring polished timber floorboards, decorative fireplaces, high ceilings and dado walls, thoughtfully combined with modern comforts and styling.

Ducted heating throughout keeps the home cosy in winter, while the two-person spa bath is perfect for unwinding after a day exploring the region. The cottage also features a full kitchen and dining area, separate lounge, evaporative cooling, and French doors opening onto the fully enclosed north-facing rear garden complete with BBQ.

Perfect for families or groups of up to six guests, the cottage is located on a quiet street leading towards the famous Botanic Gardens, Convent Gallery and popular local restaurants including Bistro Terroir and Betel Boy.

Gorgeous Albert Cottage

Our family of 4 stayed in Albert Cottage for the weekend and thoroughly enjoyed our time there. The cottage is beautifully appointed with incredibly comfortable furnishings and a well equipped kitchen. The location was perfect, a short stroll to the main street and ample parking on the street outside the cottage.we will definitely be back!

Perfect Location

This was an amazing location, a short walk to town, to the Convent Gallery and more. Was fantastic to be able to bring our dog with us who enjoyed the large fully secure back yard. One of the only downsides was that there was no information about bins, heating or anything. We would have been more than happy to put them out but then missed them. But overall a great house, in a great location and we had a great stay! would definately recommend it.
