About this property

Escape to the secluded oasis of Della Fonte. Tucked away in a tranquil rural setting at the end of a private lane, offering the perfect fusion of home comforts and Daylesford charm.

Embark on a short stroll to the garden's edge, where a captivating natural spring awaits, adding an enchanting touch to this already idyllic retreat. Boasting an open-plan living area, a well-equipped kitchen, and a mix of queen and single beds, Della Fonte is the ideal choice for families, friend groups, or couples seeking a spacious getaway. Although dog-friendly, please note that the property doesn't have a secure yard.

Just a swift 3-minute drive from the vibrant main street, Della Fonte provides easy access to local attractions. A delightful walk leads you to the Farmers Arms or Wombat Hill House, featuring Alla Wolf-Tasker's charming café nestled in the Wombat Hill Botanic Gardens. Whether planning a brief escape or an extended stay, Della Fonte promises a memorable retreat. Keep in mind that this property may present challenges for guests with mobility issues due to a staircase leading to the second level.

Daylesford getaway

This was a fantastic property and stay, really cosy and well appointed. We appreciated the pantry staples and my wife loved the reading nook in front of the gas log fire that really kept us warm whilst it was 6 degrees outside. Would recommend for couples or family.

Perfect base for a Daylesford long weekend

Della Fonte recently hosted our two families for a long weekend break from the routine. The gas fire and wine ready for our arrival were a lovely touch and the house was just as it had been described in its listing. The location of the property allowed us to explore Wombat Hill, the Convent and the Daylesford market by foot and the lake and main street were only a short drive away. We enjoyed a great meal at the Farmer's Arms just up the road. We'd definitely stay again!

Tranquility

My wife and I had an amazing two nights in this beautiful home. Weve stayed in some nice property’s over the years but Dellla Fonte would be my favourite. So clean and well presented. The decking and the view around the property was excellent. Great location. We’ll be back.
