Albion - lovingly restored 2 bedroom miner's cottage

A mere few hundred meters to town, Albion is a lovingly restored miners cottage infused with modern touches. Two bedrooms offer flexible bedding arrangements so that friends, families or couples can come together.

Homage has been paid to its humble origins by maintaining historic features such as the three original fireplaces* and cast-iron stove that now sits proudly among the luxury finishes and new, modern appliances of the well-equipped kitchen.

The kitchen and dining rooms open up onto a large and private garden providing the option to let the country air drift in whilst you eat a home-cooked breakfast and read the paper, or dine al fresco and immerse yourself in nature.

Large smart televisions in each room provide a space where you can curl up and have a movie marathon from the comfort of your bed via the free WiFi and Netflix for your use with your login details.

Crisp linen sheets and fluffy towels are included together with the Australian range of amenities featuring native indigenous botanical ingredients.

A welcome hamper of locally sourced products awaits you, including locally produced muesli and treats together with UHT milk, sugar, tea and coffee. A Nespresso Coffee Machine has also been provided for your enjoyment.

A full laundry is provided for those longer stays, including a washing machine/dryer, detergent, iron and ironing board.

A comfortable lounge with a glass front wood fire is a lovely space for nights in, or make the most of the central location and take the short stroll into town for those wanting to sample the local pubs, restaurants and bars that Daylesford is famous for.

What more could you want?

A great place to explore the region or stay in and enjoy some downtime.

Albion is pet-friendly accommodation with a fully fenced yard. Pets are not allowed on bedding or furniture.

*Two of the fireplaces are decorative only

Bedding: The king-size bed in bedroom 2 can be split into 2 x singles if required. We will contact you when your booking is received to confirm your preferred bedding configuration.

Conveniently located to the centre of town. Check in process was quick and easy. Wet, dirty mop head left in kitchen sink cupboard, making us gag every time we opened that cupboard, I eventually put this outside. Cobwebs in every room. The unsealed driveway was a bit of nightmare to get up and down, you just about need an SUV or 4WD, with tall hedge on one side and garden close on the other. If you are a migraine sufferer, be prepared to hunt down the plug in air fresheners as they were overpowering. Bring extra towels if you like one for your hair, you only get one towel for two nights. There is no walk in shower, shower over bathtub which can be a problem if you have mobility issues. Other than all that it was a good stay.
