Indulge in luxurious tranquillity at Luxury on Lyons
If you're craving a luxurious escape with all the comforts of home—and then some—Luxury on Lyons offers the perfect retreat. Nestled in the charming township of Newstead, this newly built residence is thoughtfully designed to impress even the most discerning guest.
From the moment you arrive, it’s clear this isn’t just accommodation—it’s an experience. The gourmet chef’s kitchen is a standout, featuring a full butler’s pantry, state-of-the-art appliances, and both an espresso machine and pod-coffee maker to suit all caffeine cravings. The refrigerator is equipped with an ice maker and a pure water filtration system, ensuring your drinks are always chilled and of the highest quality.
Guests are welcomed with a complimentary bottle of wine and chocolates, and mornings begin with a generous breakfast offering: croissants, jams, local honey, butter, muesli, oats, coffee, tea, and milk.
The home boasts two elegant living spaces—ideal for unwinding or catching up on reading and remote work (super-fast Wi-Fi makes this a breeze). Step outside to the beautifully designed alfresco area, complete with a cozy outdoor fireplace. As the fire crackles, watch kangaroos graze nearby and native birds dart through the bushland—nature’s theatre in your backyard.
Accommodations are equally indulgent. Two spacious and private bedrooms, each offering a queen-sized bed, walk-in wardrobe, and luxurious en-suite with a walk-in shower. Enjoy serene bush views from the comfort of electric-blanket-warmed beds dressed in premium linen. Each room is climate-controlled, featuring reverse-cycle heating and cooling, as well as ceiling fans, to ensure year-round comfort. Quality toiletries and fluffy towels are also provided for your comfort and relaxation.
A short stroll brings you to the heart of Newstead, where local gems await—an excellent cafe, a bakery/supermarket famed for its bullboar pies, a general store, post office, pharmacy, and one of the region’s best butchers, known for traditional bullboar sausages.
Conveniently located, Luxury on Lyons is just 10 minutes from Castlemaine and Maldon, 20 minutes from Maryborough, 30 minutes from Daylesford, and 45 minutes from Ballarat.
Whether you're seeking a romantic weekend, a peaceful solo retreat, or a base to explore central Victoria, Luxury on Lyons promises relaxation, refinement, and just a touch of indulgence.

Newstead Gem of a House

This property is a new house equipped with all conveniences. Even a fully operational laundry and 2 coffee machines. The list goes on…..We really enjoyed our stay here. The cold nights were enhanced by heating in lounge and bedrooms along with electric blankets on the beds. All brand new.A butlers kitchen adjoined the kitchen lounge area.Newstead is a quaint town in central Victoria. Recommendation:You need to stay at least a couple of nights - longer would be better - to soak up the warmth of the hospitality and the home.
