About this property

The iconic Coach House (c1854) is situated on 1,800sqm of lake frontage with beautifully restored gardens and some of the best, uninterrupted and commanding views of Lake Daylesford.

The house has been renovated to sensitively blend contemporary living and comforts while preserving and show casing the historic features.

The property offers 5 beautifully appointed bedrooms accommodating up to a maximum of 12 guests. Bedrooms comprise:
- 2 King bedrooms, each allowing to be configured as king or 2 sing beds
- 2 Queen bedrooms
- 1 bedroom that can be configured as a King (that can split to 2 single beds) plus 2 trundles enabling the room to cater up to 4 people.

The house also offers 2 large bathrooms plus a separate powder room, laundry and a variety of spaces for guests to relax and entertain in. There are two sitting/lounge areas offering opportunities for groups to 'break out' and or individuals to enjoy some quiet time. Both the dining room and the grand balcony overlooking the lake allow for all occupants to dine together, while the gardens and the first floor terrace provide plenty of beautiful space to relax and unwind.

The kitchen is fitted out with a comprehensive range of equipment and utensils to please those who love to bake and cook, while the large gas BBQ on the grand terrace takes the meaning of 'cooking with a view' to a new level.

Entertainment provided includes flat screen TVs, blu-ray DVD, CD/i-pod docking station, extensive book, CD and DVD libraries, large range of games and puzzles (for all ages).

The house is pet and child friendly meaning all the family is welcome.

The Coach House is perfectly positioned and set up to entertain or relax at home, walk the lake, enjoy lake water activities, visit the neighbouring Boat House Restaurant, The Lakehouse or stroll into town. This is a remarkable property in a striking location.

Being proudly managed directly by the owner, the attention to detail is as the most discerning guest would expect of such a spectacular property.

An amazing birthday at Daylesford Coach House

A lovely property. Everything we hoped for. All ten friends who called in on Saturday were blown away with the grandeur of the building. Our family were totally chuffed with the facilities, the extensive garden and the views from the balconies. Congratulations on bringing this delightful old lady back from its former run-down shell.

Glorious Garden

Sensational stay with family for my daughters wedding. The garden was a perfect location for pre wedding shots. The house was well appointed and spacious for our large group. Fiona was easy to communicate our needs with and made our stay easy. The hamper was sensational and enjoyed by one and all.

Amazing property in a perfect location

As we were getting married at the nearby Lakehouse, we needed somewhere close but big enough the house us and a number of overseas guests. The coach house was the ideal location, a wonderful building steeped in history with ample space and amazing grounds overlooking the lake on either side. The host, Fiona, provided clear instructions and responded to all questions quickly. Definitely recommend and we would love to stay again in the future.
