Musk Creek Hollow- Pet friendly- Japanese inspired cabin 10% off weekly stays

This Japanese inspired timber home has a wall of floor to ceiling glass in the living area overlooking natural bush land. The enclosed garden area adds to the ambiance of this retreat for two. If tasteful simplicity and quality with a difference appeal to you, then Musk Creek Hollow will be to your liking. Located only a short seven minute drive from the centre of Daylesford, this property is both private and close to all the attractions that this beautiful region has to offer. Pet friendly, with a fully fenced internal garden, which is a secure area for your pets. Please note that the rear of the garden is NOT fenced so do not let your dog out the back door unsupervised. Also please clean up your pets in the garden area. Pets are not to be left inside the cabin unsupervised & are not permitted on the bed or furnishings.
Musk Creek Hollow will leave you feeling refreshed, relaxed and rejuvenated.

Property description

This property captures a wonderful rustic Japanese aura. The long low building sits like a floating platform amidst the naturalistic landscaped garden. The structure's weathered, timber walls blend with the surrounds. The main expanse of the building has glass walls on either side & gives the space the open quality of a breezeway. This is the living space, barely separated from the Silver birches on one side & an internal courtyard garden on the other.
The cottage interior also has a naturally simple style. Smooth white walls and ceiling surfaces compliment elements of wood and glass. Carpet provides a quiet, soft texture underfoot. The focal point of the lounge area is a delightful wood burning fire.A big comfortable couch invites you to laze away the hours reading a favourite book, listening to music or watching a movie or your favourite series on the smart TV. You can access Netflix, Stan, binge & the rest using your urnlog in details

Description of Rooms/cottage

The bedroom has a queen size bed that faces a large picture window into the private, fully fenced garden. There is an en suite bathroom. All linen is provided for your stay.

A smart TV can be found in the living room.

In addition to the wood fire in the living area there is a split system air conditioner. There is also an electric panel heater in the bedroom & small blow Hester in the bathroom.
The ipod dock provides guests with the option of listening to your own music through your ipod or iphone. There is free wifi ( WiFi ID & password recorded at property)

Great getaway

I had a very pleasant and would definetly stay again. The only thing I would mention is there wasn't a TV in the bedroom as stated in the description but this doesn't change my good review of the place. It's cosy and had everything needed for a stress free weekend.

Relaxing and totally private

Loved the character, cleanliness, relaxing serene view from all windows, warm and cosy. So handy to have a safe area outdoors for the dog to move around without being on her leash.Easy access drive to Daylesford itself and whilst on a main road still very quiet and private. Really liked the idea / view of forest behind the property.

Cosy, private cabin in Musk, short drive from Daylesford.

Slept really well in the bed, the fold out dining table was perfect for the jigsaw puzzle, and the breakfast food provided was yummy! Thanks for a wonderful mid week retreat for Valentine's day 2018 :)

Brilliant stay at Musk Creek Hollow

Our stay was nothing short of perfect. Musk Creek Hollow is a beautiful place, from the decor to the outdoor surroundings. You can truly relax and feel part of nature. The place has everything you need. The floor to ceiling windows looking out into the picturesque garden was a real treat. Martin is a fantastic host and we look forward to staying again in the future.

Retreat and Renew

Musk Creek Hollow was the perfect place to retreat from the world for a few days. Cosy couches, a sumptuous bed, soft towels and loads of lovely little touches made for a perfect stay. Also loved the art and decor, and spent hours watching 'bird TV' through the big windows while sipping tea and listening to an audiobook. Will definitely be back!

From the minute we arrived at the property we felt so relaxed.We thought we would have to go to the supermarket to get supplies, but only to find so many condiments supplied. Plenty of cups, plates glasses pots and pans coffee machine and pods etc.The fire was amazing and so much wood we were kept so warm. Very comfortable and close to so many places to visit.

A warm, wonderful base

Martin’s place was a warm, comfortable place to stay for the week with our two pups. The front yard was secure and a great place to let the dogs stretch their legs. Having a full kitchen was really convenient to cook at home. The fireplace was one of our favourite features and plenty of wood was supplied. The bed was very comfortable with quality linen and towels provided. We had everything we needed to relax and restore. We intend to return.

A lovely, cosy retreat and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Thank you for the delightful and welcoming presentation of this home and we had everything we needed. Initially it took a while to get warm as the weather for these days was bitterly cold with that 'yukky' cold wind! We thank you for your thoughtful organisation and range of items that made it so cosy and easy to 'hunker down'!
