Neighbourhood highlights

Daylesford is the kind of place you go when you want to slow down and enjoy the good things in life.

Nestled into the picturesque hills and forests of central Victoria, this rural town just 90-minutes from Melbourne found fame first as a wealthy gold-rush town in the 1850s, and not long after as a fashionable hub for the nearby Hepburn mineral springs.

Over the past few decades, it has enticed many a Melbournian to make the move from the big smoke to the sticks, and these days it’s home to a thriving mix of eclectic art galleries, bougie boutiques, farmers markets, and more.

Its cultural history — the region attracted Swiss-Italian migrants in the 1850s who brought unique architecture and gastronomic influences with them that still exist today — and position in the gourmet Central Highlands means that some of Victoria’s best eateries and cafes can be found here in the old-timey stone and red brick cottages of Vincent St, the main thoroughfare through town.

Basically, it’s a dream destination for foodies, culture vultures, and outdoor lovers alike, the perfect escape from Melbourne — and truthfully, it’s probably where we’ll end up someday when we’re ready to find our ‘forever place’.

Whether you’re looking for a romantic weekend away with your other half, a cheeky girls getaway, or a relaxing break to unwind after a stressful week of work, this rural gem has so much to offer. In this guide, we’ve covered up what to do in Daylesford and its surroundings, plus where to eat and drink, where to stay, and plenty more.
