Stonelea in Glenlyon is the perfect, romantic retreat for couples looking to getaway from it all, recharge and reconnect. When you close the front door, you leave the hustle and bustle behind and slip into a dream experience of serenity and solitude. Bring a little fare and you'll have all you need to hide away from the busy world for a blissful escape.

Stonelea is an easy drive from Melbourne and just minutes by car from the vibrant centres of Daylesford and Hepburn Springs. Nestled in two acres of gardens and parkland, our idyllic property looks out over the Loddon Valley and is sanctuary to free ranging wildlife. At the right time of year, guests can expect a close view of kangaroos and a large variety of birds like wood ducks, the scarce gang-gang cockatoos, kookaburras and ibis, to name just a few.

Attached to the main house at Stonelea, our boutique holiday apartment is tasteful and luxurious. There is off-street parking close by and you come and go through your own entrance. And located as we are on the edge of the village, you will be ideally situated to explore the many attractions the area has to offer.

The apartment comprises a kitchenette with dining, a lounge room, a bedroom with king-size bed and an ensuite. Generous continental breakfast provisions are supplied for your first morning and you will find a gas log-fire and reverse-cycle air conditioner in the lounge room. The bedroom has a ceiling fan and the bed is fitted with dual electric blankets. The ensuite has a dual vanity, heated towel rails and a hardwired convection heater.

Large, north facing windows in the bedroom and lounge room offer splendid views as well as ample natural light and fresh air. Both bedroom and lounge room open onto a private verandah with a bench seat, table & chairs and a panoramic view. A gas BBQ is also provided.

The kitchenette includes an electric frypan, portable 2-burner electric cooktop, microwave, fridge, toaster & kettle, filter-coffee & plunger coffee facilities plus ground coffee, instant coffee, a tea pot and a range of teas. Saucepans, crockery, glassware, cutlery and utensils are also provided.

Continental breakfast provisions for the first morning of your stay include bread, butter, spreads, cereals, milk, fruit, yoghurt & fruit juice.

We live on-site and generally like to meet-and-greet our guests and show them through the apartment. Otherwise, we believe in privacy and you wont see us. Alternatively, there is a key safe at the front door and self-checkin is an option .
