Hepburn Mineral Springs Bath House redevelopment close to completion

Hepburn Mineral Springs

The soon-to-be completed five-star refurbishment of the historic Hepburn Mineral Springs Bath House is expected to cement Daylesford’s reputation as Australia’s spa capital.

Located among the most significant concentration of natural mineral water springs in Australia, the Hepburn Mineral Springs Bath House refurbishment includes: renovations of the existing heritage building for relaxation, therapy, massage and private bathing rooms; new reception access; state-of-the-art amenities; and the construction of a new building to house three public bathing pools.

Already recognised as one of regional Victoria’s most popular tourist attractions, the revitalised Bath House is expected to boost the region’s already strong local tourism and wellbeing industry, which supports 2,200 jobs and is worth more than $262 million annually.

The project is anticipated to be completed by mid 2008, with the Bath House opening to the public in late 2008.
