Love the circle drive, the begonia gardens and the views all the way around Daylesford. When I lived just down the road, the gardens were my favourite walk. More

The cafe has masses of atmosphere, a lovely spot for a coffee. I loved the interior and also the conservatory room. The coffee was great but the sandwich box was disappointing, the yoghurt I think was goats yoghurt and very, very bitter, couldn't eat it. Also the Florentine was stale. Choose something else but a lovely spot to have coffee. More

Great place for a quiet and romantic picnic. The trees are beautiful and there is a good cafe on the grounds for coffee or other things you forgot to bring. More
