Its hard to argue with that! Perched high on the rim of a prehistoric volcanic plateau, Eaglesnest Villa is a truly unforgettable escape, offering one of the most spectacular vantage points in the region. With uninterrupted, panoramic views across the entire Hepburn and Daylesford valley, this extraordinary villa is more than a place to stay – it’s a deeply emotional, sensory experience that leaves guests in awe the moment they walk through the door. Every element of Eaglesnest tells a story. Step inside and you’re greeted by floor-to-ceiling, wall-to-wall glass that draws the landscape inside and makes you feel as though you’re floating above the world. The villa’s striking interior features salvaged design elements that blend rustic charm with timeless elegance. The floor is made from 100-year-old timber reclaimed from a Scout Hall, worn smooth with history and soul. A majestic four-poster bed, handcrafted from reclaimed wood and draped in soft fairy lights, invites you to sleep under a canopy of stars—indoors. At the heart of the villa is a luxurious indoor copper bath positioned to take full advantage of the valley views. Soak in style as morning mist rolls through the trees or under the golden glow of sunset. When the air cools, a beautiful wood-burning fireplace casts warmth and romance throughout the space, making it the perfect year-round retreat. Eaglesnest is styled with a bold and soulful aesthetic that pays homage to African tribal and colonial design, but with a refined, modern twist. The result is both grounding and uplifting, luxurious yet authentic. It’s a place where time slows down, and the noise of the outside world simply falls away. Many guests have described their first moments here as overwhelming – some even moved to tears by the sheer beauty and stillness of it all. Whether you’re seeking inspiration, solitude, romance or simply a place to breathe deeply, Eaglesnest Villa is unlike anything you’ve experienced before. It’s not just a stay. It’s a moment you’ll never forget. ## Property amenities ### Parking and transport - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Microwave - Refrigerator ### Bedrooms - Bedroom ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Hair dryer - Shower ### Living spaces - Fireplace ### Outdoor areas - Balcony ### Comfort - Air conditioning ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoke-free property ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) ### General - Unit size: 861 square feet ## Similar properties ![DVD player](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/23000000/22460000/22456300/22456213/26ff93bf.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Crowned No.1 in Australia from 55,000 Holiday Homes Hepburn Springs - Air conditioning - Parking available 10 Exceptional 81 reviews £231 includes taxes & fees 21 Oct - 22 Oct [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-21&endDate=2025-10-22&selected=22456213&PinnedHotelID=22456213&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/5000000/4720000/4714400/4714379/729ab78e.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Hepburn at Hepburn Hepburn Springs - Hot tub - Spa - Parking included - Free WiFi 9.4 Exceptional 313 reviews £156 includes taxes & fees 23 Oct - 24 Oct [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-23&endDate=2025-10-24&selected=4714379&PinnedHotelID=4714379&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Luxury Studio | 1 bedroom, premium bedding, individually decorated](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/21000000/20210000/20202400/20202356/bb1acefe.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Clifftop at Hepburn Hepburn - Parking included - Free WiFi - Air conditioning - Laundry 9.6 Exceptional 99 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-09&endDate=2025-10-10&selected=20202356&PinnedHotelID=20202356&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![1 bedroom, iron/ironing board, bed sheets](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/28000000/27200000/27193100/27193086/9c521f0e.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Awarded Australia's No.1 People's Choice Hepburn Springs - Kitchen - Air conditioning - Parking available - Fireplace 10 Exceptional 35 reviews £187 includes taxes & fees 2 Oct - 3 Oct [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-02&endDate=2025-10-03&selected=27193086&PinnedHotelID=27193086&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Interior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/39000000/38130000/38123000/38122925/30220b53.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Centrally located 2-bedroom luxury villa in Australia’s spa country Hepburn Springs - Hot tub - Kitchen - Washer - Free WiFi 10 Exceptional 47 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-09&endDate=2025-10-10&selected=38122925&PinnedHotelID=38122925&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![1 bedroom, iron/ironing board](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/90000000/89740000/89734800/89734750/f6fb18a4.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Stay where the world can't find you.
