Red Gables Daylesford - Garden Suite & Hedge Suite, hotel in Daylesford

Boasting a garden and views of garden, Red Gables Daylesford - Garden Suite & Hedge Suite is a recently renovated country house set in Daylesford, 45 km from Ballarat Train Station.

A few minutes' drive from the city centre of Daylesford, lots of shops and food in that area, the suite was lovely and is in a private area. Looks exactly like the images and even better! The owner of the place is also an absolute gem! Super sweet, welcoming and helpful! This is one of the best stays me and my partner have been to for our retreats. Highly recommend it and will definitely come back!

Wombat Forest Country Retreat, hotel in Daylesford

Boasting garden views, Wombat Forest Country Retreat features accommodation with a garden and a patio, around 47 km from Sunbury Train Station.

It was clean and spacious, and a having a full kitchen made it very attractive. Everything was well organised, and the furniture comfortable. For me, the critical issue is the bed, and I found it very comfortable and I slept quite well.

    Garden view,decor, the comfortable bed, the provision of a coffee machine … in short the only thing missing was a surface area from which to eat. All in all a delightfully quiet, peaceful and enchanting experience.

    The design of the house was gorgeous and the location was so central. Beds were comfy and the balcony was a real treat. Quiet and peaceful for a weekend of reading and hanging out with friends.

    The location was amazing, so quiet, private and peaceful. The little shack is quirky and gorgeous. It had a clean full sized fridge, great stove and oven, kitchen equipment, nice plates and cups. Very welcoming and homely. Bathroom cute with clean facilities. Little veranda with couch, table and 2 chairs. It had 2 couches which was nice and a big kitchen table to eat off. I loved it, perfect rustic little shack to find peace and beauty. 🙂

    Peaceful and quiet location. House is stunning, with everything you need, king sized bed, plus a huge bath. Very cosy and warm inside. A relaxing retreat, close to town, whilst we enjoyed stunning Daylesford and surrounds. Our thoughtful host answered our questions and provided terrific local dining recommendations. We so enjoyed our stay at Tranquilo in such a beautiful art deco haven. We hope to return one day.

    My stay at Jayda was incredibly peaceful and rejuvenating. The serene atmosphere, coupled with the presence of beautiful crystals, added a unique charm to the surroundings. The bath facilities were delightful, especially with the lovely bath oil provided, creating a relaxing and indulgent experience. I highly recommend this place to anyone seeking tranquility and a touch of luxury during their getaway.

    Our family had an amazing stay at the Months and Seasons country house. The home is spectacularly designed and the look and feel is classy and luxurious yet homey and spacious. It has all the amenities for a great Daylesford getaway with its quiet back garden, outdoor tub and your own private sauna! It was great being able to bring our fur baby with us too. It’s a great location, close to the main strip of shops. And Mary was a great and responsive host. Definitely a recommended stay if in Daylesford!
