This beautifully restored 1860s cottage redefines wellness with an onus on surrendering to your surroundings. Not simply a place to rest your head, everything slows as you sink into the rainwater-filled cedar hot tub, snuggle up by the fire, unroll the supplied yoga mats, and actually do some mindful colouring-in (packs are lovingly created by owner Sandy), rather than just thinking about it. Set on a micro-flower farm in the regional village of Trentham, an hour from Melbourne, the Miner’s Cottage at Acre of Roses might be close to the action but feels light years from stress and responsibilities.
