Types of accommodation in Daylesford
When planning a trip to Daylesford and the Spa Country, there are many types of accommodation available, offering a wide range of styles and pricings.
Camping is the most basic way to spend your stay in the area, and there are several properties offering camp sites for hire. This option is most favourable in summer and spring, as the winter temperatures can be inhibitive, with frosts and foggy mornings.
Another of the most budget-wise choices is that of the hostels. These are comfortable, clean and many are located in historic buildings in the area. Staying in a hostel is not only one of the cheapest alternatives, but offers guests the company of other travellers, shared information and a social experience. It does often, though, require the sharing of facilities, and a comparatively basic style of accommodation. Boomerang Holiday Ranch also offers budget bunk-style accommodation, with the addition of a wide range of outdoor activities, including horse riding.
Self-contained cabins range in price from $70 per night, though such properties as Jubilee Lake Holiday Park also offer caravan sites and camp sites, at a much lower tariff than the cabins.
Self-contained cottages are a great way to stay ‘in’ the history of Daylesford. There are several to choose from. Daylesford hotel accommodation Country Cottages, for example, offers a range of historic properties. Prices range from $70 to $180 per night. The appeal of staying in a cottage includes that you and your guests are the only people staying in the property. Many also have lovely gardens that are yours to enjoy privately.
Self-contained villas are the modern alternative to the cottage, for those who prefer newer accommodation, though prices tend to be more expensive, up to $250 per night.
Motel units are the traditional form of accommodation, and vary from the budget to the luxurious. Room tariffs start at around $90 per night. Motels offer comfort and safety, with personalised assistance. Some have playgrounds for children, and are usually centrally located, suiting those without transport.
Spa resorts are at the luxury end of the accommodation spectrum. Peppermint Springs Retreat offers bed and breakfast, together with spa facilities and massage therapies. As offered by all the spa resorts in the area, a range of pampering facials, manicures and pedicures allow guests to experience a luxurious weekend away. Tarascon Spa Resort is a lovely homestead, with self-contained cottages. Prices for the resorts usually start at $250 per night, mid-week, or $500 per weekend (2-night stay required during weekends).
