Lake House & Dairy Flat Lodge

The rolling hills and farmland of Daylesford and the Macedon Ranges are home to the greatest concentration of naturally occurring mineral springs in Australia. Surrounded by the Wombat State Forest, it is a place of breathtaking scenery, with a strong regional food and wine culture.

Thirty-three rooms, suites and villas cascade down to the foreshore providing guests with immediate access to the lake shore and the Wombat State Forest beyond. Each space at both Lake House and Dairy Flat Lodge boasts artwork by the late and highly regarded artist and co-founder Allan Wolf-Tasker.

Good food and wine are consuming passions here. A team of talented hospitality professionals – with industry legend Culinary Director Alla Wolf-Tasker AM at the helm – deliver beautiful cutting-edge menus that celebrate local produce paired with wines from the acclaimed cellar.

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.
