The Studio in Bacchus Marsh for up to 8 guests

"The Studio" is a spacious, peaceful and self-contained retreat with a large open plan dining/living space as well as two good-sized bedrooms, a bathroom with bath and shower, a separate powder room/toilet and a laundry cupboard. With a fully equipped kitchen, espresso machine, huge dining table, wi-fi, and a 75 inch TV. Relax on the 3-seater sofas with a book or DVD from extensive collection. Guests can enjoy a game of table tennis, a BBQ, or a bounce on the trampoline.

"The Studio" is set at the rear of our large block and nestled amongst the fruit trees. It is an eco-friendly building designed and built by Andrew a few years ago. Eco features are the double-glazing, solar power, north-facing windows and maximum insulation. One bedroom has a queen size bed, a chest of drawers and a built in wardrobe. The other bedroom has two king single beds, a Queen sized bed, a chest of drawers and a clothes rack. A portacot is available and can be set up in either bedroom if required but you will need your own linen/blankets for this. Each bedroom has reverse cycle air conditioning as does the main studio room. If required, one end of the studio room can be set up with a Queen sized bed behind a privacy screen.

The floor plan in the photos shows the layout of "The Studio" and the dimensions with the main Studio room itself being around 60 square metres and the entire building is around 135 square metres.

"The Studio" is a self-catering stay with some basic breakfast provisions supplied to get you started: cereals, milk, tea and coffee.

Strictly no parties or other events are permitted to be held at "The Studio".

Up to two dogs are permitted to stay but must not be left unattended on the property. We have two dogs that are friendly to people and other dogs so please ensure your dogs are also well socialised in case they are in the backyard at the same time. The property is fenced and gated but in some places the fence is low so it would not suit a dog that likes to jump and escape.

The entire Studio and the surrounding garden is accessible to guests. The space is very private with the Studio being set about 90 metres away from the main residence. Also, only one booking/group at a time can stay at "The Studio". Plenty of off-street parking is available for several vehicles.

Andrew and Sue live in another house on the property and are usually around to assist if needed. Consider making your visit to The Studio a chance to benefit from some natural therapies with a homeopathy session by Andrew and kinesiology by Sue. A detoxifying oil massage is also available. You could also book Andrew for a portrait photography session. It is best to let us know in advance of your visit if you would like to take up any of these options.

Bacchus Marsh has plenty to offer with the parks and gorges, orchards on the Avenue of Honour, berry picking, wineries, cafes and restaurants. It also makes a great base for exploring further afield. Bacchus Marsh is close to Ballarat and Daylesford and is just a 45 minute drive to Geelong or Melbourne on weekends.

"The Studio" is about a 5 minute drive to centre of Bacchus Marsh and 7 minutes to the train station. A bus stop is just 100 metres away.

Bacchus comfort and location
The studio is generous in size and comfort. It was a great meeting place for our family who live in Bacchus and the teenagers enjoyed playing table tennis. It was interesting to be amongst the property orchard and watch their dog round up their free range chooks. The location is convenient to the community of Bacchus Marsh and interesting local towns and villages. Although very near to a freeway and busy main roads we were never troubled by traffic noise. We stayed for seven nights and happily recommend this accommodation.

Relaxing, peaceful, top quality, easy access.
You'd never know this is easy access, right of the m8! Convenient to Bacchus Marsh, just a couple of blocks away. Great bed, wonderful living area and kitchen. Excellent host. Friendly dogs. Down the lane behind the fruit orchard, an incredible house to yourself. Private, peaceful, quiet, comfortable. And great communication with host. Our dog loved daily walks around the large garden and meeting the hosts dogs. Unique design for building and furnishings. It's clear that a lot of love, care and attention to detail went into creating this home away from home. Everything you'd want and need available in the studio or short 5 minute drive to town. Everything about it is impressive, right down to the dishes and coffee machine. Highly recommend staying at the studio when in or passing by this area. Top quality in every way.

Stayed for 3 nights, but should've stayed longer. Nice and clean, with everything supplied for a self stay. Lovely fenced property off the main road, and the gardens/trees are a pleasure to view over a morning coffee. Beds comfy, modern amenities with plenty of room in both bedrooms and family/dining/kitchen.

Home away from home
It was a lovely place to stay. We had a group of six adults, a baby and a ten year old. The kitchen was well equipped, gas stove, lovely big space, lots of light, and comfortable beds. A bit of a drive to get to from Melton but well and truly worth the drive💕 Garden was a nice addition, along with the trampoline and the morning visit from the dog.

Returned to stay @The Studio for a Convention in Melton. It is just a lovely place to stay. Everything is there. Fantastic surroundings with easy access to Freeway and also Bacchus Marsh. Nice little visit from the dogs during the visit topped the weekend off. Thanks again guys, I hope the plug doesn't mean we don't get to book again. 😂😂

Best place ever
This place deserves more than an excellent rating. It was quiet, serene & just beautiful! It’s a place off the beaten path located at the far back of the residents home. Plenty of room to spread out & the fruit trees & chickens were a delight especially for our granddaughter. The studio is close to Darley as well as Bacchus Marsh although we were at our son’s house for most of the day. The security that surrounds the house is very helpful especially at night when we got in. If you want peace & quiet, this place is awesome. We will be seeing you again Andrew!
