Daylesford Getaway (13/8/2022)

Predicted rain for Sat but we were lucky with weather till about 5pm and by the time it was dinner and the borealis show started it stopped and was just muddy!
We came prepared with our wellies!!!


Mother and daughter getaway from everything esp the kids… to sleep without being interrupted and having a whole king bed to yourself without anyone kicking you all night and pushing you up against the wall!!!


It was an indulgent decadent weekend.  The borealis was on by the lake and we had an early dinner at the Farmers Arms. I had the baddest as Bloody Mary here and it was absolutely bloody good!




Bloody Mary

Lunch at Boathouse




After the light show we went to get a massage and so glad we played the roulette correctly and picked 2 top massuers amongst countless ones in Daylesford.  Not cheap but totally worth it!!!

We arrived in time for lunch at the Boathouse .. walked around the shops afterwards and went for the most expensive hot chocolate too … only in Daylesford!!!



Checked into our accommodation.. would you believe this particular weekend everything is booked out and we were lucky to get ourselves upgraded to this delux king bed .. must have had a cancellation so it worked out extremely well for us.

Bashed infront of the telly and ate chips the rest of the night!

Woke up to light breakfast as we slept in and lunch at Sault was booked for 11.30am!!!

We ventured to Wombat Hill in spitting rain but dried up infront of the fireplace.







I guess the bad weather shifted to Sunday!!! Still… Daylesford is just as beautiful and a good destination for a short breakation.

Sault was yummy and there is nothing to fault its setting/food/surroundings.













We were stuffed to the max but you know how I love my food so it was just another day… just decadent and we enjoyed our quality time together and should be doing little trips like this till I can travel overseas again next year!!

So glad WE managed to get away from the girls but at the same time we did miss them too!
