Lake House Daylesford

DREAMY DAYLESFORD ESCAPE

 

The iconic Lake House, Daylesford owned and operated by the Wolf-Tasker family since 1984 is a property full of love and soul, art and life; a property in which to indulge, relax and cocoon. It’s a property whose beating heart is a restaurant where sense of place and the true essence of hospitality are of the utmost importance.

 

Lake House is nestled on the shores of idyllic Lake Daylesford amongst six acres of country gardens in the heart of Victoria’s Spa Country.

 

The area is best known for the heavily defined changing seasons; and at Lake House they take great pleasure in reflecting this throughout special celebrations and weddings.

 

 

ALL YOU NEED IN A WEDDING VENUE

In the summertime; picture perfect ceremonies take place on the lake shore – amongst the rows of silver birch and willow trees.

 

Autumn couples may prefer a private silk lined marquee decorated with fresh cut country roses and mulberry boughs set on the promontory overlooking the lagoon.

 

Winter  couples delight in the misty mornings and starry skies – choosing to take their vows by the stone faced fireplace or by candlelight in the Terrace Foyer.

 

And Spring; the season of new beginnings in the countryside brings the most gorgeous fields of flowers and of course some of the best produce for the year.

 

Private parties, celebrations and weddings are held in one of several beautiful spaces.

 

The Cellar is a romantic private-dining option perfect for an intimate celebration of up to 16 guests. Surrounded by a ‘wall of wine’, the highlight of The Cellar is the handmade American Oak table which was made by a local craftsman.

 

The Waterfront Pavilion is situated below our main restaurant. Exuding sophisticated country charm it features crisp white wall shelving and beautiful hand waxed recycled timber tables which accommodate up to 40 guests. Two walls of glass provide spectacular views of the lagoon and lake beyond.

 

Then there’s the stunning Terrace; a contemporary country space with soaring ceilings, acres of luxe glass and stone. The space is designed to suit the personality of the hosts and as such can suit anything from an intimate shared table feast for 40 with twinkling candlelight and plush private lounge area or a gala style party with stage, dance floor and private bar.

 

Catering options.

Of course one of the most important elements when planning a perfect celebration is the food. An icon in regional dining, Lake House has long been considered to be one of Australia’s best restaurants, championing local seasonal cuisine long before it became a mantra for many. Choose from a variety of styles from multi-course tasting menus to shared feasts. Culinary Director Alla Wolf-Tasker crafts signature menus that draw on the Lake House philosophy of a sense of place; combining the best and often locally sourced seasonal produce with your bespoke celebration plans.

 

Of course no celebration is complete without beverages to toast the special occasion. From the Signature Spritz bar, to champagne towers, whisky and amaro stations and of course carefully selected wines… the Lake House team help to create a memorable and delicious feast for you and your guests.

Accommodation.

The spacious and luxurious Sutton Suite, featuring plush and contemporary country interiors with a sumptuous king bed, and private sun-drenched courtyard is a complimentary gift from your wedding night when you book the beautiful Terrace.
