1 Bedroom Apartment in Daylesford

Tucked away in a beautiful garden sanctuary “The Art Retreat” is an intimate one bedroom hideaway for two, on a blue ribbon block a stone’s throw from the main street of Daylesford and all the delights it has to offer, but quiet and private as though deep in the country. In winter you’ll be toasty and warm in the Art Retreat – with underfloor and reverse cycle heating, cosy flanellette sheets, a winter weight quilt, top of the line electric blanket and thick warm coverlets, along with hot chocolate, and a range of teas and coffees. Snug as bugs in a rug.
Nestled in an incredible garden behind the owner’s art studio, this little gem is thoughtfully decorated and provides an ever-changing vista through the seasons. You can enjoy the garden view from the four-poster bed with its luxurious pillow-top premium bedding, sample a local wine in your own private courtyard, or relish a frothy hot chocolate in front of the ethanol fire while you watch the native birds gambol about in the beautiful old trees. The owners of this lovely little hideaway live on site but will happily leave you to yourselves or say hello if you pass by.
The Art Retreat is equipped with a coffee pod machine, toaster, microwave, and lovely selection of artisan teas in the charming kitchenette. Nip up to the Sunday markets for local jams or the Wombat Gardens Café to grab some beautiful sourdough bread from Dairy Flat Farm, or find some local ales, ciders, wines or spirits at an award winning local vineyard or distillery to enjoy while you’re here. Only a few minutes’ walk from Cliffy’s, Wombat Hill Botanic Gardens, the Convent, and the culinary delights of the main street and Lake Daylesford, it’s the perfect little pad for exploring Daylesford on foot, and the off-street parking means you can leave your car behind with no misgivings.
The Art Retreat is just that – a retreat from the everyday. Nestle in like a pair of hibernating wombats or flit in and out like the honeyeaters you’ll see in the garden. Either way you’ll be rejuvenated by a stay here.
