The Station House Daylesford ~ Circa 1853

The Station House | 6 Bedrooms | 3 Bathroom | Where History Meets Rustic Charm

Nestled in the tranquil countryside, The Station House is a striking historical residence that offers a peaceful escape. Dating back to the 1850s, this inviting homestead can comfortably accommodate up to 12 guests in its 6 immaculately designed bedrooms. Surrounded by pristine woodland and a well-kept garden, this home is a haven for those seeking to immerse themselves in the beauty of the Victorian countryside. With interior design that rivals the natural splendour outdoors, The Station House is not just a place to stay; it's an attraction in itself.

Inviting Interiors: The interiors of The Station House are thoughtfully designed, striking the perfect balance between style and a warm, "home-away-from-home" atmosphere. The lounge is a standout, featuring French windows on three sides that flood the room with natural light and offer picturesque garden views. Clean white walls enhance the sense of space, while brown leather couches and armchairs create a tranquil ambiance. Rustic wooden furnishings add a touch of coziness, and artworks on the walls infuse character into every corner.

Perfect for Gatherings: The adjacent dining room boasts a rustic table capable of comfortably seating 12, making it an ideal space for group gatherings and shared meals. It shares a substantial estate with another of our properties, The Manor House which accommodates 16 guests, making it a perfect choice for accommodating larger groups of up to 28 guests.

Charming Kitchen: Adjoining the dining room, the kitchen is both stylish and functional. Wooden countertops, French windows, and lovely indoor plants create a bright and welcoming heart of the home. All the necessary appliances and amenities are at your fingertips for preparing delicious meals.

Elegant Bedrooms: The bedrooms strike a harmonious balance between elegance and comfort. Polished floorboards are complemented by antique furniture that tells the story of The Station House's long history. Wooden dressers, old brick fireplaces, vanities, and bookcases add sophistication to these humble rooms. French doors flood the bedrooms with natural light and open onto the verandah. Modern bedspreads provide a burst of colour, adding vibrancy to the spaces. Split system heating and cooling ensure a comfortable stay, no matter the weather.

A Unique Retreat: The Station House is a distinctive property that manages to create a down-to-earth atmosphere while providing the utmost comfort and style. Groups seeking a country getaway will find it hard to top this enchanting homestead. Nearby, the Wombat Hill Botanical Garden awaits exploration, and the vibrant town of Daylesford is just a stone's throw away.
The Station House invites you to step back in time and embrace the rustic charm of the countryside while revelling in the modern comforts it provides.

It is a destination where history, nature, and elegance converge to create an unforgettable escape.

We highly recommend The Virgin Kitchen Restaurant as the best dining option in Daylesford.
Open 7 days a week for Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner.
Magnificent Menu and extensive Wine list.

Absolute bliss!
We had a girls weekend away and wanted a house where we could have group meals and time together but also individually rest and relax - this house provided a perfect space for both! The house was comfortable, clean, well situated and stylistically stunning! Could not ask for better accommodation

Perfect for a catch up with friends
Booked the Station House for a girls night away with some old friends and it was wonderful. A beautiful old house with great heating (very important in July!) the owners had it all warm and ready for us when we arrived. Kitchen/ lounge area was such a great space to gather around it was hard to drag ourselves away to get dinner (very handy having a good pub across the road!). The bedrooms are beautifully furnished with generous king and queen sized beds. Owners were very easy to deal with and accommodating - a real pleasure to stay here

Great property for getaway weekend
To open the door on a cold winter day to a toasty warm house was a taste of the lovely surrounds we were to enjoy for a weekend with our extended family. The bedrooms are very comfortable. The kitchen, meals area and lounge area is spacious allowing for general family interaction or a small group interaction. This area easily accommodated the large family group. Our family group thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
