Wildwood – Stillness Among the Gums

Step into six acres of whispering forest and discover Wildwood, a handcrafted mudbrick retreat where nature leads and time slows. Every texture and surface has been chosen with care - timber beams, stone floors, soft French linen and light that moves gently through the space.

This is a home built with intention, where architecture meets the landscape in quiet harmony. The garden blends seamlessly into the bush, creating a deep sense of peace that unfolds the longer you stay.

Wake to birdsong and the soft glow of morning light. Wander to the seasonal Kangaroo Creek or share dinner in the outdoor dining space beneath the gums. As evening falls, the forest hushes and the stars appear, best admired from the outdoor bath.

Inside, every room invites rest and reflection, with thoughtful touches that bring warmth and stillness. Just ten minutes from Daylesford, yet a world away, Wildwood is a place to breathe, to restore, and to simply be.

Additional Information

Wildwood is nestled deep in the forest, surrounded by six acres of native bushland. With that comes peace, privacy, and the occasional visit from kangaroos and kookaburras.

Mobile reception can be limited, so please save your check-in details offline before you travel. Wi-Fi is available once you arrive and can be used to make mobile calls if needed.

The outdoor bath is one of Wildwood’s most-loved features. We’re on tank water, so we kindly ask that it’s used in moderation.

There’s ample parking on-site, and if you plan to charge an EV, please let us know in advance - a small additional fee applies.

On catastrophic fire danger days, bookings may need to be cancelled for guest safety. We appreciate your understanding should this occur.

We take a hands-off approach to hosting, allowing you to enjoy the stillness of your surroundings in peace. Should you need any assistance, our local housekeeper is nearby and happy to help.

Hi, I’m Jack. Wildwood is my little corner of the world, a handcrafted mudbrick retreat tucked deep among the gums near Daylesford. I’m a primary school teacher by week and a maker and renovator at heart. Creating Wildwood has been a labour of love, shaped slowly by hand and guided by the forest around it. It’s a place to pause, breathe, and feel grounded in nature. I hope your stay here brings the same stillness and sense of wonder that it gives me.
