In the heart of Kyneton, a small town famous for its gold rush-era charm and creative industries, stands the Kyneton Springs Motel. With a bold and adventurous Americana dream design, the motel features a fizzy neon sign and individually curated kitschy-cool rooms.
Former restaurateur Catherine Foote and the creative team at the Good/Hands have transformed the classic Australian road trip into a nod to the cool glamour of California’s Palm Springs. The result is a retro vibe motor inn with 20 individually curated suites that offer all the comforts a modern traveller desires.
