Situated in an idyllic rural setting, surrounded by lush pastures and rolling hills, Musk Studio is only 5 minutes from the fantastic restaurants, cafes, shops and spas of Daylesford. Inspired and created by the famous designer Stuart Rattle, Musk Studio is a unique and fascinating fairy-tale cottage surrounded by the most magical of gardens Musk Studio is an anglophile haven with a cast-iron fireplace the centre focus of the sitting area. The three main rooms have large hexagonal shaped windows enclosing, and leading out to a private pebbled courtyard, complete with barbeque. This area is exclusively for Musk Studio guests with its secluded Trellis Garden and enormous blue cedar. Here is the ideal place for a picnic and a wonderful place to sit and reflect or take in the view of the main house across the apple walk. Guests staying at Musk Studio can explore the beautiful Musk Farm gardens which comprise 15 different garden rooms. These include the magnificent Tank Garden, the splendid Woodlands area and the newly established Rosarium. This fantastic studio is a gardener’s delight and a stay here surrounded by green will be as rewarding as it is relaxing.

The Daylesford-Hepburn Region is famous for its mineral waters and is known as the Spa Centre of Australia. Our beautiful scenery includes the famous Lake Daylesford, the Wombat Hill Botanic Gardens and the Wombat State Forest. There are historic buildings in the main street of Daylesford and the region’s history lies in the rush for gold. Lake Daylesford now covers land upon which gold was first discovered and offers lakeside picnic spots, cafes, walking tracks, fishing and pedal boating. The internationally known Lake House sits on its shores and there are public BBQ facilities and amenities adjacent to the main parking area. Lake Jubilee is located south of Daylesford (about a 10-15 minute drive) and is ideal for fishing, boating and swimming. If you are looking for a waterfall, visit Sailor’s Falls, less than 30 minutes south from the Daylesford Town Centre. If you are into the outdoors, Daylesford sits at the junction of three walking trails that are part of the Great Dividing Trail – the Lerderderg Track, the Dry Diggings Track and the Wallaby Track. The Hepburn Regional Park is a little less challenging and contains mineral springs and relics of the bygone gold era.
