Daylesford spa country:
Daylesford and Hepburn Springs are the home of bathing, indulging, rejuvenating and relaxing in Australia. One of the country’s largest sources of natural mineral springs, this is where pampering all began in Australia. Where there is mineral water, spas pop up in abundance and Daylesford spas have been the place to go for decadent Melbournians since the 1870s.
Bohemian and alternative, Daylesford lies in the central highlands surrounded by spectacular lakes, forests and hills. There is much to do in Daylesford, and the combination of country air, great cafes and restaurants, shopping, day and stay spas, choice of luxurious hotels and guesthouses makes it an exceptional getaway for Spa Seekers.
