A perfect home away from home. Situated next to a beautiful reserve, the peace and tranquillity hit us all immediately. The home is spacious, allowing a family of four to easily have our own space if needed. The back deck with its landscaped garden of natives was a lovely setting for our brunches.

“Very pretty cottage with period features”
Very quite location on the edge of town. Easy walking into the main street and all the restaurants, hotels etc. It looked exactly like the pictures. Very quaint. attention to detail - as the Cottage would be circa late 1800s, the curtains, sofa etc matched. Was very comfortable. it was too hot to sit out on the deck but a BBQ would be welcome if the conditions were better for us. It basically backs onto the nature reserve so if you like hiking or looking at the historical gold fields, perfect location.

The property was fantastic. Everything was well laid out, very comfortable, and relaxing. Both bedrooms have their own bathroom, which was great. It was very warm and welcoming.

“A very special getaway”
Two spacious bedrooms with very comfortable queen sized beds, each with their own en suite which is a rare find. The front bedroom has the shower and the rear bedroom has the spa bath with a shower over the bath. BYO coathangers if you're planning to hang a few items of clothing. There were 3 hangers in the rear bedroom wardrobe along with extra warm blankets. The reverse cycle AC systems work well to heat the house throughout. We enjoyed a morning cuppa on the sunny deck out the back and the spacious adjoining living / dining area in the evening. This house is very special, with beautiful furnishings and fittings, and a large modern kitchen. Just be sure to bring kitchen essentials including oil, ground coffee and loose tea if that's your thing. Salt and pepper and instant coffee, sugar and tea bags are provided. There is a lovely big tea pot and coffee plunger provided. Depending on your fitness and mobility it's a fair walk out of the town centre and a solid uphill walk on the way back. It's located near the lovely Buda Homestead and beautiful bushland for a walk. We appreciated the friendly responsiveness of our host, fell in love with Castlemaine and surrounds and would absolutely love to stay again.

“We cannot stop thinking about how comfortable our 6 night stay here was. A must if travelling this way again.”
We loved the warmth, spaciousness and homeliness combined with the kitchen and laundry facilities. There were great shower and bathroom facilities also. The best thing was the gas log fire. Just brilliant!
