The property was light, bright and comfortably cool thanks to the thoughtful turning on of the airconditioning before our arrival on a warm day. Beautifully presented and comfortable, we had a lovely stay, breakfasting on the side deck and reading in the lounge area which overlooks the town. Attactions and places to dine are only a couple of minutes drive away, and the nature reserve behind the property was a perfect place for a morning walk. Would definitely stay here again.

The house was so incredible beautiful, my friends and I were breath taken by the charm and beautiful area the home resides in.This was the cleanest place I've ever stayed in, and it just made the stay so comfortable and relaxing knowing that the accom was well taken care of.The location was great, close to the main area, The Mill and to reserves. Whether you decide to walk or drive, I enjoyed the walk as the streets have so much beautiful greenery and was a good way to soak in Castlemaine.Overall, the stay was such a highlight that we're looking to make this an annual trip :) my heart is so full from this magical stay, thank you so much.

Fabulous house

We loved this home! Perfect size for 2 couples, absolutely spotless property, comfortable beds and pillows- nice linen. Kitchen was well equipped, the layout was good for a group. Beautifully decorated in period style, a nice library of books too. Good heating options for the chilly nights this time of year. Lovely quiet location - a short walk to the bush and walking track with lovely views, plenty of wildlife around. Check in and out was super easy and efficient. Highly recommend this property
