Harpsichord House is a very short walk to the Piper Street shops and cafes.
Harpsichord House was designed in tribute to the owners great aunt, an artist who spent much of her life in Denmark. Displaying works by local artists and designers, and exquisite textiles from around the world, this lovely loft is your ideal country escape. While the studio can sleep up to four guests, it is more suitable for couples or families due to its compact, open-plan arrangement.
With delicious local food and wines on offer just around the corner, the hardest decision you’ll have to make is whether to order additional catering and stay in or leave the luxurious, king-sized bed and garden surrounds. You can unwind on the back deck, take a bath or take a walk down by the river.
Please note: there is another house on the same property and you may see us locking up the chickens at night. Harpsichord has its own entrance and large, private garden. Pooches are welcome. Claude, a large Irish Wolfhound x lives next door.
Kyneton is located in the Macedon Ranges Shire which includes the lands of the Taungurung nation. As the traditional owners of the region, we respect and acknowledge the vital role of the local custodians of the area where Harpsichord House is located. Kyneton was part of the goldfields explosion in 1851 and later became a service town for the region. It has long been known for its hospitality to travellers.

“Sue & I fell in love with Harpsicord House the moment we arrived. It’s quirky elegance so very appealing, having the large outside deck with a resident dog added to our delight. The gardens, be they rambling, were sensational delighting us every morning. How welcoming was the breakfast, eggs, local jam, delicious sourdough, perfect.
We found the beds & pillows very comfortable ensuring a very restful night following busy days touring the area.
Our every need was catered for, beautiful shower & hand gels rather than the usual “motel” cleansers.
We highly recommend Harpsichord Cottage , we will certainly return to this property or another in the Flophouse Portfolio.”

“Harpsichord house is divine; the photos only tell half the story, the surrounds make it so much more. This guesthouse opens onto a lovely garden, best described as an ‘English country’ I’d say, made complete with clucking hens and—during our stay—their newly hatched chicks. We stayed for two nights to celebrate my partner’s birthday, a long-planned romantic weekend; it couldn’t have been better, a perfect mix of style and relaxed country chic. Returning each day to this lovely space was a treat; enjoying a glass of wine or two by the fireplace; waking and having breakfast on the sunny deck overlooking the garden, it doesn’t get better! While there, we walked the Domino Trail to the Radio Springs pub (well worth a visit), ask Genevieve for details. The guesthouse is very well equipped, you’ll want for nothing. We will definitely stay again, a perfect place, the perfect host.”
