The Cook's Quarters, Lancefield

Rustic miner's cottage in a quaint country village

The Cook’s Quarters is a sprawling rustic miners cottage in the heart of Lancefield, a quaint country village located in the centre of the Macedon Ranges popular wine region. 

Originally constructed in the 1900’s, the cottage has been modernised, with extensions added in the 1960’s and 1990’s.

The property backs onto an expansive rear kitchen garden, featuring a number of above-ground garden beds, fruit trees, roses and many a shady nook to relax and enjoy some quiet time with a cup of tea or a glass of wine. Pets are warmly welcomed at the Cook’s Quarters, but please be aware that the property is not completely fenced.

The rear of the cottage features an ambient, character-filled kitchen and dining zone with cathedral ceiling leading out to both the large undercover back verandah and cosy internal courtyard - the perfect spot to spend a lazy afternoon or share meals with friends and family. If you’re feeling energetic, there’s also a putting green, sandpit and basketball ring on the property.
