Locarno is a spacious one-bedroom cottage with stunning views over the surrounding forests of Hepburn Mineral Springs Reserve.
Current Airbnb guest rating (December 2024) of 4.96 out of 5, based on 271 reviews.
Situated in the most desirable part of Hepburn Springs, the cottage provides a relaxing and peaceful getaway. The kitchen contains all the essentials if you want to prepare your own meals, but the Daylesford/Hepburn Springs area has a well-deserved reputation for outstanding cafes and restaurants.
The cottage has two split-system air conditioning units for both heating and cooling and a woodburning heater with firewood supplied for your first two evenings in the cottage. There is free WiFi and two large smart TVs with the Netflix and Stan streaming services included.
The Hepburn Bathhouse & Spa complex in the neighbouring Hepburn Mineral Springs Reserve is a short walk down the road and offers a range of hot mineral water bathing and pampering spa treatments. There are also very many day spas within walking distance in Hepburn Springs village or a short drive to the neighbouring town of Daylesford.
The landscaped gardens offer a choice of four outdoor seating areas: the north-facing front garden has a deck just off the bedroom as well as a swing seat at the far end; the rear deck has a gas barbecue, dining table and large cantilever umbrella; and the lower deck on the west side is perfect for enjoying the sunset while seated around the chiminea.
Pets are very welcome at Locarno Cottage, including inside the cottage. We ask that dogs do not go on the sofa or bed; if you don’t think you’ll be able to prevent that, please bring along your own throws/blankets to protect our furnishings. The secure garden has fencing and gates that are at least 97 cm high.
There is offstreet parking for two cars in the driveway. The street address is 9 Forest Avenue, Hepburn Springs 3461.
Our standard nightly rates are $299 for Sunday through to Thursday nights, and $429 for Friday and Saturday nights. Public holidays/long weekends and the December peak season might have different pricing.
