Lynden Cottage - built 1884 in the heart of Trentham

Lynden is a historic cottage conveniently located in the centre of Trentham. It provides a perfect location for couples or families seeking a quiet weekend away or a relaxing holiday. Set among other traditional weatherboard homes in one of Trentham’s more historic streets, Lynden Cottage is a 3 minute walk from the town centre, while also being in easy walking distance of the beautiful Wombat State Forest.

Lynden Cottage was built in 1884, and has been fully renovated with polished floors, while trying to maintain its original charm. A modern kitchen provides all modern features, including dishwasher and microwave oven, along with a beautiful baltic pine table that seats 10. There are three bedrooms able to accommodate 7 people, one with a king size bed, another with a queen size bed (and TV), and the third with a bunk bed and a single bed. All beds have electric blankets. There is a washing machine and the house is set on a large half acre block. A restored miner's shack dating back to the 1860s is just behind the cottage and is available to guests.

We are pet friendly. The yard is fully fenced and secure. You are welcome to bring your dog inside, but we do ask that you do not bring them into the bedrooms, or allow them on the furniture. We also ask that you clean up after your pet (i.e. hair, droppings). Pets are not to be left unattended at the property.

Trentham Falls, at over 30 m high and Victoria’s longest single drop waterfall, is only 2 km away. Lyonville mineral springs is 10 km away, while Daylesford, Kyneton and Woodend are each a 20 minute drive away.

A short stroll away you have access to great cafes, Red Beard Bakery, the Cosmopolitan Hotel and Hotel Trentham.

Lovely cottage exceeded our expectations
We stayed at Lynden Cottage for a weekend while we attended a family wedding. We absolutely loved the cottage, it felt very welcoming and homely. The first night was quite cold and it was a pleasant surprise to find the fire set and ready to go. We loved our stay and would definitely stay there again. Thanks Paul for your hospitality!

It was such a pleasure staying at Lynden cottage with its combination of historic charm, mature trees and garden, while retaining a cosy homely feeling. It is a unique place to stay. I had a few queries, and the host was extremely patient and guided me through step by step.

Wonderful Lynden! 💫
We were traveling to Trentham to go to du Fermier for dinner - we also travel with two dogs. This cottage was perfect! Walking distance to all that lovely Trentham has, great facilities and the dogs had as good a time as we did! Paul (host) was responsive, generous and professional.

Cottage with ambience close to town
We found Lynden cottage easily and the simple instructions gave us all the information we needed to light the wood heater, warm up and settle in. The lighting and paintings provided a warm cozy atmosphere. The kitchen is big and well equipped and there is an option to sit outside under the trees and bbq dinner. We were three adults and there was plenty of room and also privacy.

Country comfort
Our second time staying at Lynden Cottage. We love it. It's a charming, comfortable destination for a quiet and relaxing weekend getaway. And the dog loves it too with a large, fully secured yard. Arriving to a stacked fireplace ready to light is the icing on the cake. Highly recommend a visit!

Just spent ~1.5 weeks at the property in Trentham. Everything was perfect for my stay, the bed was super comfy, all amenities worked well including the internet. The yard is huge and well fenced for those with dogs. The street where the house is (and Trentham in general) is lovely and quiet, but there's plenty of options for food, shopping and of course there's The Cosmo all within an easy 5 minute walk. Paul was great to deal with and very prompt with his responses. If/when I come to Trentham again, ill be sure to look up this property first to see if it available.

Fantastic, comfortable stay in wonderfully maintained cottage
We had an awesome long weekend away in Trentham and thoroughly enjoyed staying at Lindon cottage. The property was great for sunny and rainy days, both for us and our dog. Favourite features were; fireplace, old-style bath, miner's hut out back with seating / fireplace, huge yard and outdoor furniture. It was located closer to Trentham main street than we realised - not too close, but the perfect walking distance. Paul, the host, was responsive and made our stay easy. Would highly recommend.

Idyllic Cottage in the heart of Spa Country!
We had a wonderful stay for our 10th wedding anniversary! The cottage is very rustic with modern conveniences. A comfy king size bed in main and very warm with fireplace and potable heaters. Walking distance to Trentham main street and has a huge enclosed garden that our dog Reuben loved! A quiet weekend during major floods in other areas. Daylesford and Castlemaine close to drive. Fabulous eateries and gift shops. Owner Paul was terrific with communication too. Thank you!
