About

Nestled on top of the hill between Daylesford and Jubilee Lakes, guests enjoy a quiet rural setting amidst paddocks and forested hilltop views. Villa Sophia Retreat is a few minutes by car to the centre of town or a delightful walk via Lake Road, across Cornish Hill or via the Sunday Market.

Originally purchased by the Melbourne School of Philosophy as a country retreat for its students for study and meditation, the property now offers accommodation in three self-contained apartments with separate kitchen facilities.

If you are considering an event, the whole site including the school’s spacious house with a large loungeroom including a fireplace and 2 bedrooms is suitable for events such as yoga retreats and all together we can offer up to 18 beds across five bedrooms.

All enquiries whether for a weekday or weekend escape, family or other event to Jane Lee-Stewart 0401 138 103 or info@villasophiaretreat.com

Amazing views of just how peaceful it can be away from the big smoke.

The courtyard provides a peaceful ambience.

The fountain helps to chill and revitalise.

So close and yet so far

You will feel like you are worlds away from the action only three minutes in the car or an adventurous walk to Lake Daylesford, Jubilee Lake or into town.
