Tranquil forest views from private north-facing decks
Pikakatsaus: It’s a stunning, self-contained romantic hideaway, but the lack of daily housekeeping and spotty Wi-Fi means you're truly left to your own devices.
Arvioinut @giselleinmotion: I spent the weekend at this stunning wellness villa in Daylesford and felt completely pampered. The enormous open-plan bath, the complimentary face masks, and the peaceful forest views from the balcony were exactly what I needed to disconnect. I can't wait to go back.

5 asiaa, jotka sinun pitää tietää ennen matkaasi
💡The bathroom walls are made entirely of glass (there is a wrap-around curtain for privacy, but it's still a bold design choice).
💡The lighting inside the villas is intentionally very dim and moody, which some guests find frustrating when trying to get ready.
💡There is no coffee machine in the room—only instant coffee is provided, which feels like a miss for a luxury villa.
💡You'll receive an email 48 hours before arrival with a security code for entry, as the reception desk is rarely manned.
💡The villas were designed by award-winning architect David Edelman specifically to blend into the surrounding landscape.
