Beautifully reimagined and thoughtfully styled, Alchemy House is a refined, escape between Daylesford and Hepburn Springs.

From the front garden and bedrooms, enjoy serene views across Hepburn Regional Park. At the rear, an elevated deck opens to sweeping views of Mount Franklin—dramatic at sunset, peaceful at dawn.

Inside, stylish interiors are layered with rich tones, soft textures, and thoughtful design details throughout. Three queen bedrooms offer deeply restful spaces, each designed for comfort and calm. The main bathroom features a freestanding bath and generous walk-in shower with twin rain heads, while a second bathroom includes a shower and separate powder room ideal for guests and privacy.

The open-plan living and dining zone is bathed in natural light, perfect for slow afternoons and intimate evenings. In winter, a Ned Kelly wood fire crackles and glows, an irresistible setting for a book, a drink, and complete relaxation.

The kitchen is light-filled and fully equipped for relaxed cooking and entertaining, with a charming herb garden just outside—fresh rosemary, thyme, and mint at your fingertips.

Outdoors, enjoy alfresco dining in the rear garden with barbeque facilities, or unwind out front under the wide sky with the forest as your backdrop.

Whether you're escaping for a romantic weekend, a solo retreat, or a stay with friends, Alchemy House offers a stylish and serene base in the heart of spa country.

Acknowledgement of Country

Across Victoria’s Midwest, we acknowledge that we travel across the ancient landscapes of many First Peoples communities. These lands have been nurtured and cared for over tens of thousands of years and we respect the work of Traditional Custodians for their ongoing care and protection.

We recognise the past injustices against Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in this country. As our knowledge grows, we hope that we can learn from their resilience and creativity that has guided them for over 60,000 years. As we invite people to visit and explore Victoria’s Midwest, we ask that alongside us, you also grow to respect the stories, living culture and connection to Country of the Ancestors and Elders of our First Peoples.
