About this property

Dog-friendly studio close to Daylesford - The Stoney 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 Stoney is a charming, studio-style cottage made of Castlemaine stone and slate. It sleeps up to two and is perfect for a romantic getaway, or an escape for people wanting to relax with their pets. Being a studio, the space is only suitable for one dog or two small dogs.

The Stoney offers:
- Queen bed with quality linen and electric blanket
- Bathroom with walk-in shower (towels provided)
- Reverse cycle heating/air-conditioning
- Ned Kelly wood fire
- Flat screen television, radio/CD player with iPod dock
- A selection of DVDs, games and books
- Fridge, convection microwave and hotplates
- Plunger coffee and assorted teas
- BBQ and outdoor setting

Beautiful little studio cottage with a lovely outlook. We had a lovely stay with our 2 dogs and were made to feel very welcome but also felt we were on our own.

Tranquil
The Stoney was a cosy stone cottage, wamed by a pot belly type log fire. It was well presented and very clean. We loved the sourdough breakfast hamper and bottle of wine on arrival. Our dog had the best time and enjoyed all the space on the property. Would recommend to anyone for a tranquil and relaxing getaway.
