Clayborne Villa is the latest venture by the ex owner of Kangaroo Bend Cottage. Situated right next to the old Kangaroo Bend Cottage it is at 160 Kangaroo Drive Coomoora (just out of Daylesford off the Malmsbury - Glenlyon rd). Sitting on 5 acres of partly treed bush with plenty of grassed areas to enjoy outside. Bring up your mountain bikes for some great riding tracks or take a leisurely stroll along a country lane only metres from Claybourne Villa, great in the early morning or towards sunset with kangaroos and other wildlife to be seen. Only 4 minutes drive into the Sunday market , Farmers Arms and main street but in a very quiet area of Coomoora with little or no passing traffic at night. You will enjoy watching kangaroos, kookaburras, echidnas, and birdlife outside each day.

Bedrooms 1 and 2 both have queen sized beds and bedroom 3 has a King Size Single bed.

This villa has two living areas with a television and DVD player in each. Wood heater which keeps the house cosy in winter and the mudbrick external walls are great insulators in both summer and winter. Kitchen and dining areas are clean and bright and having two bathrooms is a bonus with a bath in main bathroom as well as shower.

Laundry with dryer and washing machine and rotary clothes line for use in the summer months.

Wi -Fi and firewood available.

Bench top dishwasher installed in kitchen.

This house is in a great central location to explore all the surrounding features of Daylesford, Macedon ranges, Ballarat, Castlemaine, Bendigo regions.

The serenity
Fantastic retro mudbrick home with everything we needed to feel comfortable. Host greeted us in person and gave us short tour of house. Fridge had some basic supplies for us to enjoy, which was generous. Plenty of space, super quiet and peaceful. Great place for jog around the block, bbq outside and kangaroos grazing at dusk. Very enjoyable stay! Recommend!!

Lovely quiet and serene property, the host left some delicious snacks and treats for us and the fire was roaring when we turned up on a wet and cold afternoon. Very relaxing place to be and just a few minutes out of Daylesford.

Great place for a weekend away in the Daylesford area
A nice place, and Bruce was a very responsive host. Love the wood fire heater in the lounge - a great place to sit given it was a colder month we visited!

Great little country getaway, 7-10mins drive to Daylesford Town centre
Thank you Bruce, we enjoyed our restful stay. Everything we needed was there; elecric blankets, milk and juice in the fridge, great wood heater and a short drive to town. Great accommodation to get away from hustle & bustle for a couple or with friends.

restful bliss, plenty of room, wonderful wildlife only 4 minutes to busy Daylesford.
Wonderful feeling of this mud brick house which is set on 5 bush acres with plenty of grassed areas for outside games or relaxing. Plenty of living area in the house for 5 people and 2 bathrooms as well, large main lounge, comfortable beds, magic wood heater for cosy nights. Safe for kids to ride their bikes around the bush tracks and country lane for early morning strolls. Great location for access to Hepburn Springs , Macedon ranges, Hanging Rock, Woodend, Kyneton, Creswick, Ballarat, Castlemaine, Bendigo, Maldon etc. Plenty of great places to eat around this district as well as galleries and wineries , markets and tourist railways. Lakes, creeks, rivers, reservoirs for fishing and great golf courses in Hepburn, Trentham and Creswick.

Wonderful rustic country getaway
A treasure in the bush! As a group of 4 (1 couple, 2 singles), we thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Clayborne Villa. Host Bruce was very welcoming and had the wood heater burning beautifully in time for our late arrival from Melbourne. We loved being a bit out of town (but still close enough) and in the bush. Quiet and peaceful surrounding compared to our busy city homes. The fridge was well provisioned with basic supplies. Bruce was very accommodating, friendly and helpful, without being intrusive. Homely atmosphere. A nice change from the modern and minimalist styles of homes. Our evening game of Chinese Checkers (provided in the house) by the fire, was highlight after a tiring hilly charity cycle around Daylesford. Would definitely come back and stay again. Thanks heaps, Bruce! You're a gem!
