Croft Cottage is a cute and cosy 1920s home-away-from-home in the heart of Hepburn Springs village, with a bright and modern rear extension featuring a soaring cathedral ceiling. Decorated with quirky design features by a former artist owner, it is a short stroll to all that this charming little town has to offer, including many superb cafes and restaurants, private day spas, the famous Hepburn Bathhouse & Spa, and lovely forest walking tracks. Bustling Daylesford is a short 4 minute drive away. The cottage has WiFi, a smart TV with Netflix, and a woodburning heater with about 8kg of firewood supplied. There are two highly effective split-system air conditioning units. Check-in is from 2pm and check-out is by 10am. You can use the fully equipped kitchen, or take a stroll to the local pubs, cafes, bakeries and restaurants. There is a secure fenced front courtyard (minimum fence height of 90cm and thus only suitable for small or medium dogs) and pets are also welcome inside the cottage. Ideal for a romantic getaway or, if you're coming as a family or with a group of friends, there is also a queen bed in the second bedroom.
After living in London for many years, we decided to move to Melbourne for a lifestyle change. And then, after just 2 years in the city, we decided on a tree change in the Daylesford/Hepburn Springs area, as we had holidayed here previously and fell in love with it, as it has both European and Australian characteristics and charms. I run the holiday let businesses with the help of my partner Andrew. I am more hands-on with cleaning and preparing our cottages for guests and making sure everything is to their liking. Andrew is more behind the scenes, ensuring our reservations system and other IT systems and facilities are working well. We make a great team and love welcoming new and returning guests to experience our cottages and all that the beautiful Daylesford/Hepburn Springs region has to offer. We live nearby also in Hepburn Springs. Guests can contact us by mobile phone at any time if they need assistance. (You might also like to consider one of our other cottages nearby: Bonnie Brae Cottage, Locarno Cottage, Bidwell Cottage (in Daylesford) or Elroma, all of which are also pet-friendly, or Aurora Cottage or Tarilta Cottage.)
