About this property

Family friendly apartment walking distance to Castlemaine’s restaurants.

Nestled into the hillside, up a steep driveway is a beautiful Tuscan style stone dwelling that is spacious and airy. In a downstairs apartment (there is an upstairs apartment onsite) you will find one queen bed in a separate bedroom, and an adjoining open plan office that accommodates a bunk bed (double below, single above). Perfect for families or good friends. A separate living space with amble couches and games to share, with a small kitchenette off to the side. There is a private yard/ court yard outside that perfectly accommodates children playing on the grass, or for warm evenings enjoy a glass of wine outside under the grape vine!

The place was a bit cold and while the lounge area could be heated up the bed room and bath room where cold. Lighting was average. The TV only had limited channels that we could find. Some of the cook ware was getting a bit old and the fire blanket and fire extinguisher are in the wrong place. The bedding was clean and the bed good, the place does have character and the out side space would be good in warm weather. Communication with host was good. Just not sure it is a place for colder weather
If you have a fat fire you cannot get to the fire blanket or extinguisher

We were out during each of the 4 days we were there, but the garden are looked very nice.However the driveway was a nightmare and we had to negotiate the curve with 2 “back & fill” when driving to the door to drop our luggage.We parked 1/2 way up the drive in the guests’ area because part of our stay there were other people parked at the top. Just as well it wasn’t raining, in which case we would have gone elsewhere.At the bend in the drive on the road side there is a precipitous drop, so really this place is only suitable for small cars.

I visited Castlemaine for social weekend away with a friend. This apartment always clean and comfortable and close to local attractions. The host is just lovely – friendly, responsive and available and was even kind enough at one point to give us a ride to where we were going in her car when we were running late! I’d definitely stay here again.

super clean and plenty of space. Wonderful decor. The only drawback was that we had three cold days and found it was absolutely freezing in the evenings as there wasn't time for the heater to warm the home up.We had been asked not to leave it on when we were out. It would be a great place for warmer weather.

Quaint and quirky

A well located apartment with a charming personalised vibe. A lovely sunny courtyard set in a classic Castlemaine garden is a bonus. We found Tobie to be a friendly and accommodating host. Just a note that access to property may be challenging for those with limited mobility.

Perfect for us!

The photos don’t do this gorgeous place justice! We loved our stay. Super comfy, relaxed and great spaces. Each day was over 30 degrees and this sandstone gem stayed cool and comfortable throughout. We walked into town each evening, ! cooked breakfast at home and had a cheese platter under the grape vine in the evening. Perfect! Thanks Tobbie

Lovely stay at Castlemaine

My family and I had a short stay over the Christmas period. The unit was very clean and comfy and we loved how close it was to the centre of Castlemaine. We had a really lovely stay.

We really enjoyed the cosy living area and patio. The beds were comfortable. Close and walkable to everything we needed. It felt good coming back to such a cosy place after sightseeing all day. Heater on, feet up. Eventually found enough power points to charge things.

it was well spent $ value for a venue with an ideal location

We enjoyed our 5 nights and days stay in the north country town near Bendigo. Our apartment was comfortable. The steep drive have curved entrance was ok when we got used to it. We can recommend this apartment in Castlemaine to friends.
