Lake House & Dairy Flat Lodge

Daylesford and the Macedon Ranges are home to the greatest concentration of naturally occurring mineral springs in Australia. Surrounded by the Wombat Forest, it’s a place of glorious scenery, and charming creative villages. With thanks to rich volcanic soil, a strong regional food and wine culture flourishes.

Studios and suites at the iconic lakeside hotel lie amongst waterfront gardens; infinity pool, tennis court, The Spa and at the heart of the lodge, the flagship Lake House Restaurant. Guests can also visit the 40 acres of regenerative farmland at Dairy Flat Lodge and Farm.

Great food, wine and hospitality are consuming passions here. The iconic Two Chef Hat Restaurant presents a snapshot of the season on every plate, largely inspired by Dairy Flat Farm which produces fruit, vegetables, herbs, flowers, olive oil, cider, honey and wine for the tables.

With state-of-the-art meeting & event services including the purpose-built Terrace Room, six acres of gardens, award-winning accommodation and The Spa – Lake House is a great option for your next event. And all just 80 minutes from Melbourne.

Underlying everything at Lake House is the philosophy that a regional destination restaurant cannot exist in isolation from its region. Lake House’s cuisine and experiences celebrate the beauty of the local people, produce, place and seasons.
