User Avatar

Nestled on the edge of Daylesford and surrounded by a horizon of towering trees, this thoughtfully renovated post-war cottage is a serene, design-led location perfect for creative productions that value texture, tone, and atmosphere.

Recently reimagined, the home embraces its original charm while elevating every surface and space through a carefully curated palette. The interiors blend earthy hues, sculptural forms, and refined materials—creating a cohesive visual story that glows in natural light. It’s the kind of space where every room feels styled yet lived-in, calm yet rich with visual possibility.

From editorial photography to lifestyle campaigns and film scenes, the cottage offers a versatile backdrop. The sophisticated use of colour and shape works beautifully for stills, while the layered furnishings and custom finishings provide visual interest from every angle. Soft light filters in through the windows, warming timber tones and highlighting architectural detail—a dream for capturing mood, texture, and natural vignettes.

Set within the lush countryside of Daylesford, the cottage feels grounded in nature while offering all the comforts of a fully modernised space, including Wi-Fi and air-conditioning. The setting is quiet and secluded, with a guest capacity of up to 15, making it ideal for styled shoots, film production, workshops, or creative meetings.

Located just over an hour from Melbourne, this design-renovated retreat brings the charm of a rural hideaway with the styling and structure of a boutique shoot location—thoughtful, photogenic, and always ready to capture the light.
