Winton Cottage is a sympathetically restored Victorian residence dating back to the vibrant days of the 19th-century gold rush. Nestled in the historic town of Maldon, this charming cottage is conveniently located just 90 minutes from Melbourne.


This elegant home is perfect for couples seeking a romantic getaway or groups of friends wanting to explore the area. Inside you’ll find a spacious living area with a dining table, a comfortable leather lounge suite, and a cosy wood-burning fireplace. The property features central heating and cooling throughout.

Winton Cottage is just a short stroll from Maldon’s historic main street. Surrounded by picturesque cottage gardens, mature trees, and birdlife, the property offers two terraces and a gas BBQ — ideal for alfresco dining on warm evenings.

For guests' convenience, we offer firewood at cost as an optional extra, clearly stated in our advertisement before booking. Firewood payment relies on an honesty system. In this case, the guest used the firewood but left without paying, requiring us to follow up.
