New Horizons Farm Stay

'''New Horizons Farm Stay offers a proper country escape on 14 acres in Smeaton, a handy spot right in the middle of Victoria's old gold mining country. It's just 22km from Daylesford, 15km from Creswick, and 35km from Ballarat, making it a great base to explore the area. You can pick from a recently renovated standalone cottage, a brand new fully-equipped tiny house, or one of two comfy motel-style rooms. All the rooms have a microwave, toaster, and a fridge, so you're set for brekkie. The property itself is lovely for a wander, with a dam and plenty of walking paths. You might even spot the alpacas, sheep, and goats. The hosts live on-site and are always happy to give you a few pointers on things to see and do nearby. They've even got a sheltered kennel for your dog if you're heading out for the day. Perfect for a quiet couple of days away or a longer stretch exploring the region.'''
