Independent, Daylesford and the Macedon Ranges hotels

"I stay at a lot of Pubs in rural areas, this is easily the best, lovely spot, great food and friendly staff. The rooms were very clean and tidy."

"Wonderful hotel in a beautiful area. We stayed in an executive suite and it was spacious and lovely. Great corner bath and big TV. The restaurant is downstairs and the dinner was wonderful. We got great wood fired pizza very near by which was great. There is no mini bar or room service. But a big fridge and tea and coffee making provided. Bar and restaurant were pricey but great cocktails. There are wonderful walking trails close by. The pool is big and super warm. We would definitely stay again. Check out is very early at 10.00am, so no time in the morning for pool or breakfast unless you are a very early riser. "

"We loved our Daylesford get away! Great location and very comfortable."

"Amazing place would definitely stay again. "

"Definitely recommend"

"A small motel, with convenient parking outside your room. The room was small but not cramped, it was fresh and modern, bed comfortable and everything clean. Check in was contactless, through using a code for a key safe on the outside entry door and the system worked well. I would stay again."

"Great location, clean room and amazing views!"

"The escape villa is beautifully designed, with plenty of natural light and stunning tree views. The fireplace is a true centerpiece—gorgeous to look at from anywhere in the villa, while also providing excellent warmth and comfort. The open-plan jacuzzi is another highlight, perfectly positioned to take in the views. Both the couch and the bedding are very comfortable, making for a relaxing stay. A couple of small areas could be improved: the TV reception wasn’t great, and some of the bathroom silicone is showing wear and light mold. Overall, though, a wonderful stay in a lovely villa."

"We were visiting lancefield for a 60th birthday. We were disappointed to not be staying longer. "
