A Romantic Escape in Nature’s Embrace

Indulge in the ultimate romantic country retreat, where serenity and luxury blend seamlessly just 10 minutes from Daylesford and Trentham.

Nestled amidst a private forest, this enchanting self-contained cottage offers the perfect setting to unwind and reconnect.
Curl up by the crackling fireplace, sip coffee, and savour your complimentary breakfast provisions - indulge with a bread maker for fresh hot bread.

Step outside to immerse yourself in pure bliss - soak in the steaming outdoor bath beneath a canopy of stars, take a dip in the tranquil indoor mineral pool (bookings required) or wander through private forest trails hand in hand.

As the sun sets, cozy up by the winter fire pit or escape to the floating pavilion, where a flickering fireplace and breathtaking water views set the scene for unforgettable moments.
