Darley Travel Guide

Melbourne

In summer, the fast flowing Lerderderg River often completely dries out.
Looking west for a fabulous sunset cloudscape.
Stepping stones cross the Lerderderg River near this MacKenzie Flat picnic ground in Lederderg State Park.  This is an easily accessible site which is popular with locals but little known beyond the Bacchus Marsh town boundary.
Bacchus Marsh, Victoria is located within an extinct volcano and often enjoys the most magnificent cloudscapes.
Sunrise in Darley near Bacchus Marsh, Victoria.   To the east, but below the  horizon is Melbourne 50km away.

Clean and lovely room. Pillows were great, unfortunately bed was very low and hard mattress. Staff at the front desk was very welcoming and explained in detail all directions to a tee. Thank you, Irene Emans

Let down by parking as you have to pay 12 dollars a day as nowhere else to park plus pain at night if you go out tlii late as barrier has a mind of its own. No supermarket below as shut down a while ago but petrol and hungry jacks across road and a couple of restaurants below apartments
