Cottage rentals with a hot tub

St Jerome's Daylesford
Peaceful and only 10mins from Daylesford. The access to state tracks is great for running and the home is set in a peaceful location.

Lake Orchard Villas - House 3
The house is clean and peaceful, beautifully located by the lake. It’s especially delightful to take a stroll at sunset. I really enjoyed my stay and hope to visit again in the future.

Stoneleigh Miners Cottage
Lovely quaint cottage for a restful getaway. We particularly enjoyed a soak in the spa with some wine after a long walk. Very comfy bed and thoughtful touches.

Forget Me Not Moonlight Blue Miners' Cottage
A beautiful little cottage, very close to the restaurants and attractions of Daylesford and nearby places

Birdie and Brad's Broomfield Retreat
Thanks Amie for hosting us. We liked the stay , it has the best views. Enjoyed the hot tub . One of the best stays so far..

Two Bedroom Two Spa Cottage
Fabulous spot to stay. Very comfortable and the hosts were thoughtful to have the place cool prior to check in for us on what was a very very hot day.

Quirky Private Outdoor Spa Retreat
Beautiful little area, easy to find and clear check-in instructions, the spa was the perfect temperature, very clean and the perfect distance from town to be walkable but also nice and quiet and very private. The only issues we had was a lack of sponge or cloth to wash the dishes with but aside from that it was well worth it, I highly recommend

Self-Catering Cottage
What a wonderful peaceful property, extremely clean, very comfortable beds, plenty of amenities, communication with John and Linda was excellent and very responsive. Would highly recommend if you are looking for a peaceful get away in a lovely environment inside and out. My son and I went to view the stars with his telescope, the skies were amazing too. Thanks so much John and Linda for your hospitality.

Croft Cottage near Hepburn Mineral Springs Reserve
Lovely cottage on a quiet residential street. Had a very relaxing stay with my two cavoodles who enjoyed the enclosed garden and the walks to the nearby mineral springs and trails. Would gladly return next time I’m in town.

Cute Cottage Cute Town Newstead
Neal was a great host from check in to check out! All the thoughtful extras were appreciated. The cottage felt very welcoming and homely on arrival and throughout our stay. A beautiful base to travel within the Central Goldfields region. Neal's knowledge of the area and recommendations were appreciated as we were able to visit some of these places which we enjoyed.

Viola @ Hepburn Springs
We had a great stay at Daylesford Country Retreats. The accommodation was just as described and as per the photos. The beautiful scenery around the property made our stay so peaceful. We will definitely be coming back again. Thank you for having us!

Stephanie’s pet friendly 2 bedroom Cottage.
What a beautiful place to stay for a few nights. Close to Daylseford and Kyneton which are lovely to visit, all while staying somewhere very peaceful and quiet. We loved it here, there are kangaroos everywhere. The house is very well fitted out, warm with a lot of room. We loved the pizza that Stephanie made us. Our dog really enjoyed the walks - one thing for all dog owners to note is the very safe and secure yard around the house. Our dog was able to wander around without us having to worry about her getting out of the yard! We will definately be back.

Piccolo Cottage - close to Hepburn and Daylesford
My dogs and I loved our overnight stay at Piccolo! Emma’s place was super clean, very cosy and welcoming. I will be back for sure when I need a break in this beautiful part of Victoria 😊🐶🐶

Ukamirra - bush setting, magical views
We enjoyed a relaxing stay in Chewton Bushlands - with its relaxing & cozy lounge with wood fire, books & DVDs. The kitchen was well set up for eating in. The beds were comfortable. We were only a short drive from the charming Saturday market in Chewton & getting provisions in Castlemaine, exploring the excellent local bookstore & cafes. Finally we appreciated visits from the local wildlife including 2 wedge-tail eagles soaring overhead.

Valley Views Daylesford - Pet Friendly
Lovely old miners cottage. Great bed. Had everything required for a relaxing stay. Short walk into Daylesford. Nice extra touches.

Isn't it time you stayed in the Dam Cottage?

Heart of Daylesford - Serendipity
Beautiful home to stay in- most serendipitous that we found this available only a week before long weekend! Was blessed and clearly it was meant to be- perfect place to stay!

Cosy and inviting cottage, circa 1910
Lovely old cottage, quiet and private. Very comfortable bed, in fact there was a choice of different bedrooms. Nice gas log fire in the lounge kept the room toasty warm (and it was very cold outside). Column heaters in each bedroom which are easily moved around to where-ever they're needed. Also a reverse-cycle air conditioner in lounge. Breakfast provisions consisted of eggs, milk, butter, cereals, bread, vegemite and a Nespresso coffee pod machine. Lots of crockery, cutlery, pots and pans, but as in just about every short-term rental, needs a good, sharp cooks knife. Full size fridge, along with a dishwasher and induction stove, kettle and toaster. A great place to stay for a few days to look around Kyneton and surrounds.

Herrmann's Cottage Maldon - 1860s miner's cottage
Cute little cottage, Brett was very generous with extras and the wine was lovely. The garden was delightful. We had a full day so got home too late to light the fire but plenty of wood was on hand if we needed it. Check in was easy and Brett was able to be flexible with our time. Location was 4 minutes from the event place where we had our social gathering and an easy walk into town.

Tranquil, modern self-contained cottage
The Cottage was very well presented, spacious and had top quality bedding and bed furniture. The kitchen had an extensive range of crockery, cutlery and tools. It is an ideal location for the rail trail cycle path. We would stay again if we revisited the area.

Lara Short Stay's....The Hidden Cottage..
This was our second time staying at Lara Short Stays ... and, to be honest, it is now the first place we check for accommodation when we are visiting Lara / Geelong region. Julie is very easy to communicate with and the property is fabulous, inside and out!! Even with other guests on the homestead grounds, it is peaceful and quiet. Dad and I look forward to many future stays in the Hidden Cottage!!

Ellerslie - Romantic Stone Cottage, Barfold
Lovely quiet place surrounded by beautiful nature and rolling hills. The interior is beautifully decorated and equipped with everything you need for a weekend away. I loved the fireplace and the timeless furniture! The only thing that could improve would be that the shower pressure was quite low, and the hot water ran out very quickly! All in all though it was a fantastic stay!

Pound Hill Cottage Miners Rest Ballarat
We enjoyed our stay at the cottage. It’s very cosy and clean. There’s everything you need in the kitchen. There were even games and colouring books for the kids. There are farms around you so it’s perfect if you want to escape the hustle of the city. Just a quick drive to all the sights in the area. Kylie is a very friendly and helpful host, always responded quickly. We would definitely come back.

Stoney Creek Cottage
Highly recommend this lovely cottage . We felt very much at home . Crisp sheets , soft towels , fresh bread , wine & chocolates. And - a towel warmer warming fresh towels for a hot shower after our long trip from Queensland. Just perfect .
