Lake House Daylesford

Exploring the property is in itself an adventure. Guests may like to have a hit of tennis followed by tea and refreshments in the tennis pavilion, a glass of wine by the fire in the Argyle Library Bar. Given the opportunity to explore the gardens you will come upon significant trees, a myriad of sculptures and artwork from many of the region’s top artists, extensive outdoor terraces overlooking the lakeshore and established country gardens with everything from koala-loved stringy barks to lilac, Daphne, quince, plum and apple trees.

The renowned restaurant draws appreciative foodies from Australia and around the world. In the kitchens, a talented team under the guidance of co-owner and Culinary Director Alla Wolf-Tasker AM work from the ground up producing cutting edge, modern Australian cuisine with an emphasis on seasonal and regional ingredients.

Co- founder Allan Wolf-Tasker (1949 – 2022) was a renowned artist. His work (much of which depicts the landscape in and around Daylesford) hangs in private and public collections around the world as well as throughout the Lake House main hotels areas, studios and suites. Some are available to purchase alongside works from other regional artists.

In amongst the cool fern gully and surrounded by waterfall fed streams and springs – The Spa is an oasis of tranquility.

Room Information

Hotel Studios, Suites and Villas are beautifully appointed with unique custom furnishings, largely from nearby suppliers or handcrafted by local artisans. Original art hangs in every room from the Wolf-Tasker Family private collection. In room movies and wifi are all included as is a selection of minibar items including non-alcoholic beverages, beer and cider. Housekeeping service, porterage, turndown and special touches throughout your stay are just the beginning. Room service is of course popular for those wanting to sleep in, although the delicious Lake House a la carte breakfast and buffet including freshly baked sourdough and viennoiserie from the Bake House at Dairy Flat Farm is not to be missed.

Things To Do

Popular hotel activities include lounging by the picturesque solar heated infinity pool overlooking Lake Daylesford, a hit of tennis on the full-size court, casual basketball, a soak in the hot tub and sauna or a cocktail on one of the many waterfront terraces. There is a library full of books and games where you can also order bar snacks throughout the day, and in the cooler months a firepit by the lake shore provides a beautiful place to sit with a book and a good glass of local pinot noir. Hotel guests are invited to join an exclusive tour of the Dairy Flat Farm gardens every other day as well as the slow fermentation bake house and Dairy Flat Lodge – also operated by the Lake House Team.

The Farm inspires as much in The Spa at Lake House as it does in the Restaurant. Guests indulge in signature treatments which harness the healing powers of herbs and flowers in small batch luxurious and nourishing scrubs, balms and oils. Combined with hydrotherapy treatments which gently heat the natural mineral waters of the region for a deep soaking session designed to boost circulation and general health, therapeutic massage is also available, as are Ayervedic facials.
