Hunt's Folly

"For that romantic getaway or a family country experience"

Cottage & Vineyard Hunt's Folly is the perfect setting for a relaxing break in a fully renovated charming historic cottage in a small private vineyard. The cottage was one of the first brick buildings constructed in the town possibly as early as 1859. It was the home of Charles Dicker, town clerk and prominent local business identity, before becoming the mining surveyor's office and residence during the second gold rush in the 1880's. The last owner planted over 200 Shiraz vines which are a visual delight through the seasons and a wine drinker's dream. It is situated in the Goldfields Region of Central Victoria, just 2 hours drive from Melbourne and 20 minutes from Maldon. Accommodation The cottage provides self contained accommodation for up to 4 people with tastefully furnished queen and twin bedrooms. Each has electric panel heaters and electric blankets on all beds. Curl up with a book in front of the open fire in the formal lounge room. Or relax in the air conditioned family room with the digital TV, DVD/Video or assorted board games. There is a fully equipped kitchen for those who like to prepare their own meals and a separate dining room. Or eat alfresco on the wide verandah overlooking the vineyard and garden. There is also a BBQ provided. Modern, heated bathroom with shower and separate toilet. External laundry facilities. All linen and towels provided.
