The Space

Thoughtfully curated with brand-new high-end furnishings and designer touches throughout, the home exudes warmth, comfort and understated luxury. Soft natural textures, calming tones and beautifully styled interiors create an inviting atmosphere designed for slow mornings, cosy evenings and memorable weekends away.

Sleeping up to 6 guests across three beautifully appointed bedrooms and two bathrooms, Emerson House is ideal for families, couples or small groups seeking a premium country getaway. The spacious layout offers multiple living zones to relax and unwind, while the fully equipped kitchen and open-plan dining area make entertaining effortless. After a day exploring the region, curl up beside the crackling wood fire with a movie streaming on the smart TV, soak in the luxurious spa bath, or retreat to one of the peaceful bedrooms for a restful night’s sleep. Thoughtful, practical touches, including a washer/dryer combo, make longer stays easy and comfortable, while split system heating and cooling ensure year-round comfort.

One of the home’s most unique features is the newly transformed self-contained retreat space. This beautifully styled one-bedroom, one-bathroom studio is also available to book separately under its own listing, Emerson Retreat, making the property wonderfully versatile for couples’ escapes or larger group stays. When booking Emerson House, guests enjoy exclusive access to the entire property, including this additional retreat space.

Step outside and immerse yourself in the peaceful surroundings. The expansive grounds feature a dedicated firepit area complete with festoon lighting, as well as an alfresco dining space – the perfect place to gather under the stars with a glass of local wine or a home-cooked meal after a day exploring the region. The large secure backyard offers plenty of space for children and pets to play, making the home ideal for relaxed family getaways. Being fully pet-friendly, your four-legged companions can enjoy the escape alongside you, with room to roam and explore the lush surroundings.

Despite its tranquil setting, Emerson House is just a short stroll to some of Daylesford’s most loved attractions. Wander down to Lake Daylesford for a morning walk, enjoy the nearby parklands of Victoria Park, or spend the afternoon exploring boutique shops, galleries, cafés and award-winning restaurants along Vincent Street.
Whether you’re seeking a relaxing weekend escape, a luxury couples retreat or a stylish base to explore the region, Emerson House offers the perfect blend of comfort, sophistication and classic Daylesford charm.

A perfect stay! The property felt so spacious but cosy at the same time. Well fenced, so I felt comfortable to let my dog outside unsupervised. Had everything we needed, and just a few minutes drive to town! Highly recommend!

We had a wonderful stay at Emerson House. The property was presented beautifully and had absolutely everything we needed for our stay. Very well thought out and considered. Backyard was secure and fenced and our pup loved exploring. Woke up to kangaroos outside in the morning which was a highlight! Fire worked wonderfully.
