Lower Widecombe Medieval Cottage

4. Lower Widecombe Medieval Cottage

65km from Wendouree · 1 site · Lodging · Barkers Creek, VIC
Medieval Cottage Retreat on Djaara Country Escape to another realm in this medieval cottage on Djaara Country, lovingly built using traditional techniques by renowned local craftsman Rob Hadden. Set in a tranquil 2.5-acre valley among willows, oaks, and roses beside a miniature lake, the property also includes another 2.5 acres of bushland teeming with kangaroos, birdlife, and wildflowers. Let the frogs sing you to sleep and wake to the chorus of morning birdsong. This eco-retreat is furnished with natural materials, and breakfast foods of wholesome local provenance are provided. Located near Castlemaine, an area brimming with farmers markets, bars, live music, cafés, vintage shops, artisan food producers, and a landscape rich in historical significance. Mountain bike trails, galleries, and parks are also close by for you to explore. Inside, the cottage features a high vaulted cathedral ceiling with massive timber beams and a spiral staircase leading to the minstrel’s gallery and sleeping chamber with a queen size bed. The kitchen is equipped with a toaster, electric kettle, induction hotplates, and fridge, and you’ll be provided with fresh, quality local ingredients for breakfast. The bathroom includes a shower, toilet, and hand basin, with all linen provided. Outdoors, a wrought-iron table on the lawn overlooks the water — a perfect spot for morning tea or an evening glass of wine. Please note: no pets are allowed due to sensitive wildlife. Guests are required to take all rubbish home, as there is no council collection at this property. Unfortunately, the cottage is not wheelchair accessible — it is truly medieval in that regard.
