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!

We very much enjoyed our weekend in Castlemaine. It was a chilly weekend but the apartment was cosy and had everything we needed (including some lovely artwork to admire). We loved the big glass windows onto the garden and watching the birds. Thank you for a lovely getaway Tobie.

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.
