About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

The Capannone, a one BR country cottage. Perfect getaway.

Peaceful, private and picturesque, one of two on five acres of land. Set in the very small hamlet of Basalt just outside of Daylesford/Hepburn Springs, with it's rolling hills and country quiet. The perfect getaway for a romantic weekend or time out from a busy life. Wake up to bird calls and maybe grazing kangaroos or have a wine or coffee and enjoy the stars before slipping off to sleep.
All equipment required for a stay-in break is available as well as the basic salt, pepper and milk for your coffee or tea. Also an assortment of dvd's for your entertainment. Connectivity at The Capannone is not the greatest so it truly is a switch off venue.
The Capannone's close proximity to the boutique towns of Daylesford and Hepburn Springs and all they have to offer as far as gastronomic experiences with restaurants, wineries and markets and also the health and wellness tradition, extends a host of alternative activities and award wining dining and wine experiences.
Also, further afield the historic Goldfields area is on your doorstep to explore.

During your stay at this holiday home, you'll be close to Laurie Sullivan Reserve. A kitchen and a patio are available in the holiday home.
  • Air-conditioned home with kitchen, patio and DVD players
  • 10 minutes by car from Eganstown Streamside Reserve and 11 minutes from Lavandula Swiss Italian Farm

Absolute bliss
Thank you for a beautiful place to completely shut down from the busy work weeks, & for us to reconnect with nature. We had little to almost no reception so it was the perfect place to unwind for a weekend. Thank you!

Remote get away
I loved the property, and layout of the house was surprisingly modern and functional, just missing a laundry room and internet connection to make it perfect, hence the 4 stars. In saying that, I wouldn’t have minded having no internet, but, also had no phone service which it’s not ideal if we had to deal with an emergency. Every thing else was great!

Weekend getaway
Beautifully presented stand alone cottage, in a lovely quiet location a short drive from Daylesford. Very tranquil setting with a view into the forest and with lovely bird calls. The unit is modern, very clean and well appointed. Jan the host communicated very clearly and promptly. Would definitely visit again.

Great little hideaway.
The cottage was tucked away in Basalt with a lot of privacy. Great chance for my husband and I to relax and unwind. The cottage was very clean, quiet and comfortable would highly recommend a night away at Cappanone.
