Mercato - Italian for "market".

Respecting the Italian heritage of Daylesford and the proximity of the famous Daylesford Market. In early European history, the town market place was the heart and soul of the town. All walks and staions of life came together to satisfy their needs, from the most basic to the most extravagant.

All forms of business were carried out from the administration of justice to the declaration of intention to marry in front of the market cross. The market was a gathering place of people and goods from around the world. Full of vibrant colours, a myriad of smells and tastes, the creative and the unusual, the unique and the necessary, and of course the gossip and intrigue.

Markets reflect life and all its rich tapestries. Come and join us for a while. Relax and ponder the amazing diversity and beauty of the world in which we now live.

Come and enjoy the diversity and beauty of Daylesford.
