The Green Door-Renovated Miners Cottage with amazing views

Beautifully renovated and full of character, The Green Door is a charming miners cottage perched on Wombat Hill in one of Daylesford’s most enviable locations.

At the front, sweeping views stretch across Daylesford towards Mount Franklin while at the rear, a beautiful tiered garden and meandering pathway lead directly into the Wombat Hill Botanic Gardens. Step outside and you’re moments from some of Daylesford’s favourites, including Cliffy’s Emporium, The Convent Gallery and the Sunday Market precinct, with the centre of town also just a short walk away.

Sleeping up to eight guests across two queen bedrooms and a bunk room, The Green Door is an ideal getaway for families or groups of friends wanting to experience Daylesford from the heart of it all.

Inside, soaring vaulted ceilings and a skylight above the kitchen create a wonderful sense of space and natural light. The deep forest-green living room brings warmth and character, with a log fire creating the perfect place to settle in with a book, a glass of wine or a good movie. Rich timber furnishings and original cottage details are paired with modern appliances and thoughtful updates, giving the home plenty of heritage charm without sacrificing comfort.

Outside, take a seat on the front porch and enjoy the views towards Mount Franklin, or retreat to the courtyard and layered gardens at the rear. Wander through the tiered garden and follow the path straight into Wombat Hill Botanic Gardens – a particularly special feature that makes the property feel wonderfully connected to its surroundings.

Whether you’re spending your days exploring Daylesford’s cafés, galleries, markets and gardens or simply enjoying the fire, views and peaceful garden setting, The Green Door is a beautiful home base for a relaxed country escape.
