Beacon House in Daylesford is a beautiful Edwardian home with a stunning Architectural extension located within walking distance to the Wombat Gardens and the cafes and shops on the main street of town.
The original part of the home has grand proportions and retains many period features including a beautiful bay window with dusty pink glass detail. Three king-size, ensuite bedrooms feature period detailing, new interiors and hotel-quality bedding, perfect for three couples or 6 girls in split beds. Families will also love this lovely home, an effortless home to come together as a group.
The contemporary timber extension contains the open plan kitchen, living and dining room. A great place to enjoy time together, making the most of the great layout and outdoor entertaining zones. When it's time for some quiet time, retreat to your bedroom and curl up with a good book, or take a walk to the botanical gardens and immerse yourself in nature. WiFi and hydronic heating flow throughout, and a recent refurbishment creates a chic and stylish getaway.

Great location but trucks were noisy in the night. I noted there were stairs at entry of house but was unaware there was internal stairs between living and bedrooms which was an issue for us. Our ensuite door would not close which wasn’t a big deal but for privacy on the loo. Also disappointing that the supermarket body and handwash were so diluted they wouldn’t stay on your hands long enough to make a lather. Living room nice and warm with northerly light and there was plenty of room.
We were in Daylesford for our daughters wedding and this place was the perfect place for us and our overseas guests to get ready for the wedding! excellent place to relax and catch up - enough space to be together or to be apart! We loved the house and the gardens!
A beautifully comfortable, clean and well presented holiday house, within walking distance to many local businesses and attractions. We all loved relaxing in the open plan living room. Cliffy’s cafe just metres up the road was a favourite spot to visit. Beacon House added so much to our whole holiday experience of Daylesford. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
