Lake House, Daylesford in Victoria has won many awards including the  Best Australian Spa experience, Best Wine List, Weekend Australian Hot 50.

Lake House is an easy ninety-minute drive from the Melbourne CBD. It turned out that getting a limo to take us there would cost a fortune so we opted for a hire car and there is plenty of outdoor parking for guests and visitors on arrival.

Lake House is a 33 room and suite boutique hotel located on the shores of Lake Daylesford and looks like a traditional Australian country house.

Lake House restaurant is the jewel of the hotel. It has been awarded two Chef’s Hats and absolutely deserves them. Dinner here is a highlight of any stay!

Salus Spa is a must. Dalesford is the spa centre of Victoria, so these highly trained therapists know what they are doing.
