Relax in the grand rooms with high Victorian ceilings, baltic timber floors and antique french glass and panelled doors. A central hallway separates the beautifully appointed bedrooms from the stylish living spaces where antique turkish rugs adorn the floors and lush leather sofas and armchairs are layered in handmade cushions and throws.
Our cooks' kitchen for those who love to entertain offers a mix of old world french and spanish cookware and modern utensils, coffee machine, french press and stove top espresso, good knives and a sharpener and our favourite cooking books.
Cook up a memorable feast or enjoy an intimate breakfast at the grand dining table. Take some Eames cushions out and recline on the beautiful sun drenched north facing deck or have a bath in the old claw foot that overlooks Smith's Creek natural spring.
You're merely a short stroll to the Sunday Market, an extravagant food platter at nearby "CLIFFY'S" deli, a picnic in the the wombat gardens or a delicious french meal experience at Bistro Terroir. Swim in the lake, relax in a rejuvenating spa and indulge your inner aesthete with a walk to the Convent Gallery.

Summary: Our stay at Zahalka House in Daylesford was lovely. Nestled beside Smith’s Creek and surrounded by a beautiful garden amd deck. The house was just as we expected from a country cottage and enjoyed the use of the fire and the deck overlooking the garden, which was a beautifully setting for our morning coffees. The location is easily accessible and only a short drive into town. Unfortunately our experience at Hepburn springs was cancelled less then and hour before our booking, however we were able to arrange madsages and facials at a day spa in town. We made the mostbof the cafes and restaurants in town and were not disappointed, Betel Boy getting our top votes.
