Uffington House Daylesford

Summary:

Steeped in history and overflowing with character, Uffington House is a beautifully restored 1880s cottage that offers an authentic Daylesford escape with all the comforts of modern living. Tucked away in a peaceful garden setting just moments from the summit of Wombat Hill Botanic Gardens and only a short stroll to Daylesford's vibrant cafés, restaurants, galleries and boutiques, this charming retreat perfectly blends heritage, privacy and convenience.



The Space:

Sleeping up to four guests across two beautifully appointed queen bedrooms, Uffington House is ideal for couples, small families or friends looking to experience the very best of Victoria's spa country. Rich in period character, the original cottage has been thoughtfully updated to provide a warm and welcoming space while retaining its timeless charm.



Inside, high ceilings, original features and inviting living spaces create an atmosphere that immediately feels like home. Curl up beside the cosy gas fireplace with a glass of local wine after a day exploring the region, or enjoy year-round comfort with split-system heating and cooling. A smart TV and complimentary Wi-Fi allow you to stay connected when you choose, while still embracing the slower pace that Daylesford is famous for.



The fully equipped kitchen makes entertaining effortless, whether you're preparing a leisurely breakfast before visiting the Sunday Market or enjoying a relaxed dinner after discovering the region's wineries, cafés and award-winning restaurants. Gather around the dining table to share stories from the day before stepping outside to enjoy the peaceful garden surrounds.

The cottage features two comfortable queen bedrooms and a central bathroom, providing a practical and relaxing layout for up to four guests. Every space has been designed to balance heritage charm with modern comfort, creating a welcoming retreat in every season.



Outside, established gardens provide a tranquil setting to unwind. Enjoy your morning coffee amongst the greenery, spend quiet afternoons reading in the sunshine or simply relax after a day exploring Daylesford and the surrounding region. Despite its peaceful setting, you're only a short walk from some of Daylesford's most popular attractions, making it easy to leave the car behind and explore on foot.



For larger groups, Uffington House can also be booked together with the separate rear cottage, Little Uffington, creating accommodation for up to seven guests. Alternatively, Little Uffington is available as its own private one-bedroom retreat, offering flexible accommodation options to suit couples, families and groups.



Whether you're wandering through the nearby Wombat Hill Botanic Gardens, soaking in the region's famous mineral springs, enjoying long lunches at award-winning restaurants or simply relaxing by the fire, Uffington House offers the perfect setting to experience the timeless charm of Daylesford.



Warm, welcoming and beautifully positioned, Uffington House is a place where heritage character, peaceful gardens and relaxed country living come together to create an unforgettable stay.
