About this property

Dog-friendly cottage close to Daylesford - The Cottage at Hollow Log Estate

Award winning Hollow Log Estate is the perfect escape for you and your dog. The spacious 23 acre property offers a mix of beautifully maintained garden areas, open paddocks and dams.

For you, there’s a tranquil setting and the choice of two superb, self-contained cottages, complete with a generous breakfast hamper, wine and chocolate. In the winter months, you might choose to curl up in front of the fireplace with a glass of wine and a good book. In the warmer months, a BBQ on the verandah perhaps? The choice is yours.

For your four-legged friends, there’s a secure 1/2 acre dog play area and walking tracks that lead right from your doorstep into the bordering Wombat State Forest. Hollow Log Estate is truly dog-friendly. Dogs are welcome across the property and inside the cottages. We appreciate that your dog is part of the family.

With Daylesford and Hepburn Springs only five minutes away, there’s a great variety of restaurants on offer, from fine dining to more casual cafes and hearty pub meals. You might pamper yourself with a spa or massage, browse the local markets or stroll around Lake Daylesford.

The spacious and stylish two-bedroom Cottage is decorated with a mid-century feel. With queen-sized beds, one that can be converted to singles, it comfortably sleeps up to four people, making it perfect for two couples, friends or a family getaway. The Cottage is suitable for one or two dogs. Any more than this would need to be negotiated with the owner.

The Cottage offers:
- Two queen beds (one able to be converted to singles)
- Quality linen and electric blankets, towels provided
- Reverse cycle heating/air-conditioning
- Ned Kelly wood fire
- Flat screen television, CD/radio player with iPod dock
- A selection of DVDs, games and books
- Fridge, microwave, oven with hotplates, dishwater and fully-equipped kitchen
- Plunger coffee and assorted teas
- BBQ and outdoor setting
- Bathroom with walk-in shower

Five Wiggly tails out of 5
Lovely rural property, very clean with great modrn amenities and lots of thought into extras for our doggie companion. Watch DVDs, read books or play boardgames. If you have to, use the provided wifi to check your emails and messages. The doggy fenced paddock was great to exercise the puppers and let them wander off leash. In the morning we watched the kangaroos and local wildlife. We also saw ducks, lorikeets, sheep and even a fox. Close 9km drive to Daylesford and Clunes worth a visit too about 35 minutes. Loved our stay and hope to be back again someday soon.

Very comfortable and enjoyable experience
Everything was easy despite us making a late booking. Very thoughtful hosts. Lovely bread, happy eggs etc that were provided made for a nice breakfast. Great facilities for our dog. She was thankful for the treats and the company of the groodle staying next door. The large enclosed dog run was terrific.
