About this property

Dog-friendly cottage close to Daylesford - The Cottage at Hollow Log Estate

Award winning Hollow Log Estate is the perfect escape for you and your dog. The spacious 23 acre property offers a mix of beautifully maintained garden areas, open paddocks and dams.

For you, there’s a tranquil setting and the choice of two superb, self-contained cottages, complete with a generous breakfast hamper, wine and chocolate. In the winter months, you might choose to curl up in front of the fireplace with a glass of wine and a good book. In the warmer months, a BBQ on the verandah perhaps? The choice is yours.

For your four-legged friends, there’s a secure 1/2 acre dog play area and walking tracks that lead right from your doorstep into the bordering Wombat State Forest. Hollow Log Estate is truly dog-friendly. Dogs are welcome across the property and inside the cottages. We appreciate that your dog is part of the family.

With Daylesford and Hepburn Springs only five minutes away, there’s a great variety of restaurants on offer, from fine dining to more casual cafes and hearty pub meals. You might pamper yourself with a spa or massage, browse the local markets or stroll around Lake Daylesford.

The spacious and stylish two-bedroom Cottage is decorated with a mid-century feel. With queen-sized beds, one that can be converted to singles, it comfortably sleeps up to four people, making it perfect for two couples, friends or a family getaway. The Cottage is suitable for one or two dogs. Any more than this would need to be negotiated with the owner.

The Cottage offers:
- Two queen beds (one able to be converted to singles)
- Quality linen and electric blankets, towels provided
- Reverse cycle heating/air-conditioning
- Ned Kelly wood fire
- Flat screen television, CD/radio player with iPod dock
- A selection of DVDs, games and books
- Fridge, microwave, oven with hotplates, dishwater and fully-equipped kitchen
- Plunger coffee and assorted teas
- BBQ and outdoor setting

Wonderful property
This is the most wonderful place to stay particularly if you have dogs. Beautifully appointed and set up and everything feels inclusive for both you and the dogs. So much space to excercise and just enjoy the beauty of Daylesford.

Doggy Paradise - and pretty human friendly too :)
My partner and my fur baby, Louie and I had a lovely weekend at Hollow Log. So nice to have safe areas for Louie to play and for him to be as welcome as we were. Anyone needing a break with their 4 legged buddies must try Hollow Log. Thank you Ali and Lisa

Puppy 5 Star
Our family of 4 (2 beautiful labradors) had the best visit at Hollow Log. We spent 3 nights there and hardly left the propoerty. Daylesford has lots to offer but it was far too much fun spending time together "at home" as a family in a safe, stress-free, comfortable, well-appointed property. We even met some nice fellow-residents (Joe!) for Kauri & Bandon to play with. Thank you Ally & Lisa for making our stay so memorable!

Fantastic place to stay for humans and dogs alike!
We had a wonderful four day stay at Hollow Log Cottage. The cottage was very clean and comfortable with the added bonus of the wood fire which was much appreciated on chilly evenings. It was a relief for us to be able to let our dogs explore in the enormous fully fenced exercise area and not have to worry about them escaping. Ali and Lisa were very helpful with places to visit and we loved seeing Lucky the two week old lamb that they had adopted and were bottle feeding. We will definitely be visiting Hollow Log again.
