Enjoy a glass of wine or beer in front of the fire, on the verandah or up the hill near the shepherds hut.

The cottage is only 2 minutes drive or 15 minute walk from the town centre. We welcome guests to leave seed out for the multitude of native birds.

The Mia Mia is the perfect place to recharge the batteries amongst the stunning rural farm views, the rustling sound of gum trees after a day of exploring the treasures of the area including Castlemaine, Maldon, Vaughan Springs, Maryborough and Daylesford.
