Dacha on Daylesford Lake. Houses 8
Dacha is the Russian word for holiday house. It is a place to retreat from the hustle and bustle of city life and rejuvenate your body and spirit. Dacha is also a place to reconnect with friends and family and share quality time with those you love. The location is right on Daylesford lake Our family has owned this property since the late 1960’s. Originally it was a humble miners cottage. My wife, Rosemary and I renovated the house in 2012 and tried to preserve the original charm and character

Luxury cottage farmstay- Scotsburn
Mingara Park cottage has been lovingly restored to provide a snug & cosy getaway. Sit and enjoy the beautiful countryside & sunsets, curl up and read by the fire place, stroll through the farm and meet our friendly goats and miniature cattle. The cottage is ideal for a week working from your country office, a weekend away for two or to share with family and friends. The kitchen has all you need to cook up a storm but if you prefer the outdoors, light the fire pit and sit out under the stars.
