A lovely little getaway

A lovely studio stay that provided me and my wife an easy end to a personal day... saying goodbye to a loved one. The studio was presented in a clean and fresh way surrounded by the beauty of Castlemaine. Thanks, Lisette.

Nice place to stay in lovely Castlemaine

Nice quaint little bungalow in a quiet street. Had everything we needed for a 1 night stay and was close to the town centre. Lack of television didn't bother us in the slightest! - It was nice to have some quiet after a long day. We didnt meet the owners, but the little dog was super cute. Would stay again.

This was the perfect countey escape

It was close to town but still felt really private. Loved the whole vibe of the place with the overgown cottage garden and beautiful brick arch as you enter. Everything inside was clean and well presented.

Comfortable stay

This accommodation is as described, and the host is hospitable with some extra touches ( fruit bread and some milk/teas.The bed is comfortable and the shower is great. The towels are rough and dishcloths were smelly.As we were travelling by train, during a heatwave, we very much appreciated the friendly and very efficient taxi service.

Great Space for 1-2 Near Town Centre

We enjoyed our 2 nights, bed very comfy, extra homely touches like variety of tea leaves, home-ground coffee, fresh fruit, raisin bread etc. Very quiet area, a few train noises, but pretty birdsongs too!
