About this property

A beautiful peaceful house in nature and close to town.

Casa Adagio, as the name suggests, will set you at ease in its tranquil surroundings. It is the perfect escape from 2 to 10 people with a large private and beautiful garden, adjacent to bush walking tracks, proximity to the mineral spas, massage therapists and that the Daylesford area has to offer.

This private home will make you feel that you are totally secluded, whilst being conveniently situated between Daylesford (3 minute drive/10 minute walk) and Hepburn Springs (4 minute drive/20 minute walk) with their abundant cafes, restaurants, retail shopping and spa facilities.

Casa Adagio is a light-filled, elegant yet relaxed, and comfortable, spacious home. With two three living spaces there is lots of room for everyone. Stunning antique furniture, light fittings, objects d’art and artwork feature throughout the house. Every room is a feast for the eyes, with beautiful and unique furnishings and decorative items.

The outlook and position of this magnificent home makes it a perfect property for all seasons. In Summer you can enjoy the small solar heated swimming pool, al fresco dining on a choice of two decks or just relax and read a book on the shady front verandah. Enjoy the spacious gardens and lawns which extend to and are surrounded by State forest, with abundant walking tracks suitable for a gentle stroll or a serious day hike.

In winter, curl up in front of the fire in the sun-filled living rooms on comfy sofas. Choices of indoor entertainment include wifi, a TV with Google Chrome Cast, a DVD player (range of DVD’s supplied), board games, books, and magazines. The house is really well heated with a wood fire, three split system units, heaters in each bedroom and bathroom and electric blankets so you will be cosy and warm during your stay!

Indulge in massages or other spa treatments either in Daylesford or Hepburn or at home.

The stunning French 18th-century antique dining table with seating for 10 is adjacent to the fully equipped kitchen. It is the perfect setting for communal dining. A BBQ is also provided on one of the decks. A chef can be arranged to come and prepare your meals at the house.

The property has five stylishly appointed bedrooms. Each room can be configured with a King-sized bed or two long singles. Each bedroom has a distinctive colour scheme, with beautiful linen and upholstered bed heads. The main bedroom has an ensuite with a full-size bath and separate shower. The remaining four bedrooms are serviced by a further two bathrooms.

All linen is supplied as well as tea, coffee, milk, oil, vinegar salt & pepper.

Lovely house in peaceful location
The house is lovely and a great size for a group of friends. We were 10 couples travelling together. The living area and back deck were great places to come together, but there are plenty of options if you want some quiet time to sit down with a book or music and relax by yourself.Well equipped kitchen and bathrooms, two large indoor sitting areas, three outdoor sitting areas, and the pool was warm enough for us to relax in during the afternoons. Hidden in the bush it was a very peaceful place to stay. Thanks for having us!

Great weekend retreat in beautiful location
This space in Daylesford is a hidden gem. Even though the location is central, only a few minutes drive from the town centre, you feel completely submerged in nature as the property is surrounded by bush land and beautiful gardens. The yoga equipment and studio are a great addition. The house is beautiful, the 10 of us did not want to leave!

Cosy and beautiful house for a lovely getaway
The only problem with this house is you might not want to leave! We were ten mums who stayed for a weekend and we all absolutely loved it. It's a charming home with its beautiful gardens, gorgeous lounge room with a fireplace, and each room decorated with so much taste. I highly recommend Casa Adagio for your getaway in Daylesford.

Beautiful and tranquil property
This property is straight out of a home magazine (literally if you read the article about how Anna and Miguel renovated this beautiful home). Perfectly decorated and with all the amenities we needed for a wonderful weekend away with extended family. While it was too cold to utilise the pool, the pool table was utilised and the living areas and deck areas were great for gathering and meals/drinks. Great location close to Daylesford and Hepburn Springs.

Lovely for a chilled weekend away
We chose this accomodation for a girls weekend away. We were looking for somewhere with a pool and a certain number of rooms. The way the bedrooms could be modified from either kings or singles was super helpful and the communication about this from the host was great. We also really appreciated the kitchen as it also included things like oils, salt etc that you don’t want to be buying new just for a little trip. It was a relaxing trip and I have been recommending it to everyone who is looking for somewhere for a bigger group.

Idyllic Winter Family Getaway
Only one word to describe our stay at this beautifully presented and functional homestead…”Perfect”! And yes it was during Winter!!! We were very lucky to secure the booking, as we didn’t book weeks in advance like most people would for a property like this. Thank you Anna for such a wonderful experience! Your support team were also fantastic! We will be back!!

A truly memorable weekend for all
Our family and friends recently stayed at Casa Adagio to celebrate a milestone birthday. Casa Adagio exceeded our expectations - the property worked well with a diverse group (adults + teenagers), allowing for privacy when required. Beautifully appointed (and clean!) with stunning gardens, we all had a truly memorable experience. Thank you Anna for your help, guidance, excellent communication and flexibility (we had to reschedule due to lockdown). We will be back!

Pool
The house was very clean and was surrounded by lovely gardens. I was disappointed by the pool it is only waist height and freezing. When I addressed this with manager Anna she said it was an old solar heating system and only works when the sun is shining. We had several warm days towards the end of our stay. The temperature of the pool did not change.

The most beautiful place, warm welcoming
We totally enjoyed every minute of our stay. The garden is beautiful as is the home and the furnishings. We had everything we needed in way of crockery and cutlery and little extra like yummy biscuits were so appreciated by everyone. The only negative and not to be taken badly, it was probably an oversight but I had to clean the freezer part of refrigerator before I could use it. Some spillage had occurred. the fridge is the first port of call so felt I needed to bring to your attention. It didn't spoil our visit but could be a problem if it persists. Thank you for a wonderful weekend.
