Clifftop at Hepburn is a family-run business created with a single, long-term vision: to design places that make people feel something the moment they arrive. Not accommodation that blends in or passes through, but destinations that are emotionally charged, deeply immersive and genuinely unforgettable. From the beginning, Clifftop was never conceived as a collection of holiday homes. Each villa was designed as a standalone experience, shaped by the landscape it sits within and the feeling it is intended to evoke. Vast horizons, dramatic scale, absolute privacy and architecture that responds to place rather than trends. This is accommodation built as a canvas, where guests do not simply stay, but arrive. Long before weddings were ever considered, guests from across Australia and around the world were telling us the same thing: “I have never stayed anywhere like this.” That reputation was earned through originality, restraint, emotional impact and an obsessive focus on experience. It led to Clifftop being recognised as Australia’s No.1 Accommodation from over 55,000 holiday homes nationwide, alongside extensive national and international media recognition. Today, Clifftop is led day-to-day by our daughter Chloe, who runs the business with an exceptional team that shares the same passion for design, landscape and guest experience. Together, they are committed to creating stays that feel considered, tactile and deeply restorative. Places where people slow down, disconnect and genuinely exhale. For the first time ever, that same philosophy has extended naturally into a very limited number of weddings. Australia’s most unique accommodation is now, by choice, a canvas for Australia’s most unique weddings. Not because we changed what Clifftop is, but because guests kept telling us it was already the most meaningful setting they had ever experienced. Clifftop exists to create moments that stay with people long after they leave.

We have created some of the most spectacular and distinctive luxury accommodation in Australia. Rather than over-explaining, we prefer to let Clifftop speak for itself. But first, we are excited to share that for the first time ever, Australia’s most unique accommodation is now the canvas for Australia’s most unique weddings. Clifftop at Hepburn offers a once-in-a-lifetime setting for a once-in-a-lifetime day, with a very limited number of weddings now available. Clifftop at Hepburn has been recognised as Victoria’s No.1 Romantic Escape and Australia’s No.1 Unique Holiday Home, No.1 Holiday Accommodation, No.1 Romantic Accommodation, No.1 Romantic Getaway, No.1 People’s Choice and No.1 Interior and Design. It is a Master Builders Award winner and has been featured by QANTAS, the Robb Report, Home Beautiful, Belle Magazine, The Age Traveller, Domain, Urban List, My Domaine, Herald Sun Great Escapes, Courier Mail, Travel Insider, Postcards and the Today Show, as well as being selected for major brand launches, fashion shoots and national media campaigns. Set high on a vast volcanic plateau with uninterrupted horizons, Clifftop is known for its dramatic architecture, absolute privacy, immersive landscapes and rare sense of scale. This is not a place chosen for convenience. It is a destination chosen for moments that matter.

Daylesford and Hepburn Springs are unlike anywhere else in Australia. Just over an hour from Melbourne, this region has become the country’s most celebrated destination for wellbeing, food, creativity and escape. Built around Australia’s largest concentration of natural mineral springs, the area has drawn people seeking restoration and renewal for more than a century. Today, it is recognised globally as one of the world’s leading wellbeing destinations and was voted the fourth most welcoming town on the planet. The towns themselves are vibrant, idiosyncratic and deeply creative. Think independent boutiques, artists’ studios, bookshops and galleries woven through heritage streetscapes. Add to that a food and wine scene that consistently punches far above its weight, with acclaimed restaurants, destination bakeries, artisan producers, cellar doors and farmers’ markets that attract chefs and travellers from around the world. Surrounded by volcanic landscapes, forests, lakes and rolling farmland, the region offers endless opportunities to slow down and reconnect. From spa bathing and bush walks to long lunches, market mornings and fireside evenings, Daylesford and Hepburn Springs invite a different rhythm of life. It is a place people come to feel better, eat better, breathe deeper and leave changed. Once discovered, it is rarely forgotten.
