Summary: Our stay at Zahalka House in Daylesford was lovely. Nestled beside Smith’s Creek and surrounded by a beautiful garden amd deck. The house was just as we expected from a country cottage and enjoyed the use of the fire and the deck overlooking the garden, which was a beautifully setting for our morning coffees. The location is easily accessible and only a short drive into town. Unfortunately our experience at Hepburn springs was cancelled less then and hour before our booking, however we were able to arrange madsages and facials at a day spa in town. We made the mostbof the cafes and restaurants in town and were not disappointed, Betel Boy getting our top votes.
