The idyllic pet friendly weekend getaway from Melbourne, the township of Daylesford has plenty of accommodation options to cater for a romantic and relaxing break from life. Daylesford is located between Castlemaine and Creswick, within a region that contains Australia's largest concentration of natural mineral springs. A gold rush occurred in the area when alluvial gold was found in 1851, with the town of Daylesford being surveyed in 1854.
While Daylesford's initial growth was due to the thousands of workers looking for gold, the town is much more famous for the bubbling mineral waters which flow from its many springs. Coupled with its beautiful mountain scenery, forests, gardens and lakes, Daylesford and neighbouring Hepburn Springs have become major tourist, holiday and alternative lifestyle towns.
Daylesford is a now a spa town located in the foothills of the Great Dividing Range, within the Shire of Hepburn, Victoria, Australia, approximately 115 kilometres north-west of Melbourne. There is a thriving industry built around physical and spiritual wellness including spa treatments, massages and acupuncture.
