Hakka Guesthouse Daylesford | House in Daylesford
4 Bedroom House in Daylesford
Summary:
Discover ‘Hakka Guesthouse’ Daylesford - A private country escape. Just a short drive from central Daylesford, Hakka Guesthouse is a calm, design-led sanctuary where mid-century icons, Japanese craft and modern Australian pieces create a home that’s equal parts gallery and cocoon. Outside, an acre of designer gardens that drift into the Cornish Hill reserve; inside, two fireplaces, a loft library and deep soaking tubs invite unapologetically slow living.
The Space:
Hakka Guesthouse is a private, design-forward retreat offering four serene bedrooms (sleeps 8), two beautiful bathrooms with indulgent soaking tubs, two lounges with fireplaces, an entertainer’s kitchen and a loft workspace/library.
As the morning light pools across warm timber as you drift between two inviting lounges - one deliciously sunken, made for curling up and losing track of time. The fireplaces crackle into life, voices soften, and conversations stretch in that effortless, holiday way. It’s the kind of room where a second cup turns into a slow afternoon, where playlists hum quietly, and the outside world feels comfortably far away.
Kitchen & dining - The fully equipped entertainer’s kitchen invites a gentle rhythm to the day: brew at dawn while the garden wakes, gather easy produce for a graze-at-noon lunch, then let candlelight and laughter carry dinner late into the evening. Generous prep space and considered cookware make everything simple - plate up shared dishes, pass them across the table, and linger for just one more story.
Work & unwind - When you need a pocket of calm, the loft workspace and curated library are your quiet aerie. Perch with a notebook, read a few pages, sketch an idea, or simply check in with real life before slipping back into holiday mode. Framed by leafy outlooks and hushed light, it’s a gentle reset between strolls, shopping, and long, easy meals.
Honest materials throughout this joyful space and sculptural lighting set a soothing tone, while original mid-century pieces are curated to be lived with - not tip-toed around. Tactile textures, warm woods and thoughtful details favour comfort first, always. The effect is effortless and welcoming: a home that feels composed yet deeply relaxed, where beauty is something you inhabit.
Bedrooms - Hakka Guesthouse has 4 bedrooms - All beds feature locally-made wool mattresses, stone-washed cotton linen and pillows. Fresh towels, spare blankets and considered lighting round out an unpretentious, hotel-grade sleep - only warmer, quieter and entirely yours.
Outdoors - Step into nearly an acre of timeless gardens where birdsong travels and the sky opens wide. Wander barefoot across the lawn in the morning cool, watch afternoon light flicker through the gums, and follow your private gate straight onto the Cornish Hill walking tracks. It’s all eucalypt-scented air and big-sky moments - sunrise strolls, golden-hour wanders, and unhurried evenings under a soft scatter of stars.
House rules: no pets allowed, no parties or events. Smoking/Vaping is prohibited. Family-friendly but please supervise children - the spiral staircase and sunken lounge are beautiful features that require care with energetic little ones.
