Two handcrafted barn doors add to the unique character of the space. One opens to a queen bedroom, offering a private and inviting retreat, while the other reveals a stylish bathroom, complete with a luxurious king-size shower—perfect for unwinding after a day of exploring.

Bring your furry friend! They’ll love it here! The Duckling is proudly pet-friendly, featuring a doggie door and secure fencing, so your pup can explore safely while you enjoy the tranquil surroundings.

While located on the same acreage as the owner’s residence, The Duckling offers its own private entrance and courtyard, ensuring complete privacy. Outside, a verandah with a BBQ invites alfresco dining, while the picturesque dam and jetty provide a peaceful spot to feed the ducks or simply soak in nature. The surrounding bushland and courtyard make it easy to switch off, slow down, and recharge.

Ideally positioned between Daylesford and the charming village of Glenlyon, where you’ll find a delightful old-world café, The Duckling is a true labour of love—a thoughtfully designed retreat where you can relax, reconnect, and enjoy the beauty of country Victoria.

A Hidden Gem!

5/5

Close to Daylesford yet peacefully secluded—quiet, cozy, and pet-friendly. Our pup loved the secure yard while we relaxed by the fireplace, soaked in the stunning surroundings, and listened to the kookaburras. We’ll be back!

Truly Charming

5/5
