Castlemaine House | The Botanist's Retreat-Large 3 b/rm. Central Castlemaine.Near The Mill & Gardens

3 Bedroom House in Castlemaine

We look forward to welcoming you at The Botanist's Retreat Castlemaine!
Ours is a renovated, period home, thoughtfully and colourfully styled to look beautiful and still be extremely comfortable, with all you need for a short or long stay. A green, serene space from which to enjoy the vibrant and creative town of Castlemaine - and beyond!
Centrally located, you can walk to The Mill or Botanical Gardens in 5 minutes or to the town centre - with cafes, pubs, restaurants and entertainment - in 15 minutes. The bedrooms, a huge bathroom with soaking tub, shower and double sinks, large lounge, kitchen and dining, with an office area, separate laundry and outdoor deck. Central heating and air conditioning make this ideal for all seasons.
Ideal for three couples, a girl’s weekend or a family - we've hosted many of both kinds of guests and all have loved it. The home has off street, under cover parking and a fenced yard, with a lovely garden that we've been adding too to make it even more lovely.
It is on a main (60km/hr) road so there is some road noise during the day, but it's quiet overnight.
The outdoor deck and BBQ area is under cover and at the rear of the property, so is a great spot for relaxing with a coffee or wine, or enjoying a meal from inside or the (provided) BBQ.

Marianne - August 2025
We loved our stay at this unique house, which is cosy, well equiped and thoughtfully decorated (beautiful linen and the huge bath were highlights). Heating was very efficient. Locations was perfect for us - just a short walk to the Mill and the centre of town. Kimberly was excellent to deal with and gave us great local tips and some lovely treats on arrival. It was a bit chilly to make use of the outdoor spaces, but they would be fantastic in warmer weather. I’d love to visit again!
Steven - July 2025
The Botanists House was LOVELY!
It was just like the photos. the mattresses were all super comfy!
The decor was delightful! Lush even.
The kitchen was honestly the best stocked kitchen I've ever seen! They even had scissors and sharp knives!
As promised - the heater was excellent - and very shortly after arriving we were in a cost heaven.
Thank you so much for making such a beautiful home for holidays.
I would 100% stay again!

Shivonne - January 2025 - Five stars
Our stay was wonderful!! Kimberly and co were amazing to deal with from the very beginning. Everything you can possibly need or want is already thought of prior to your arrival inclusive of special treats and essentials. The house is beautifully presented, clean, tidy and smells divine. I would most definitely stay again in future.
Kerry - August 2024 - Five stars
Our family had a great time. The house was furnished comfortably, well-suiting three couples & a 1yr old. We were close to a range of activities & it was a short & easy drive to towns such as Maldon & Chewton. There were lovely touches including a stocked pantry & coffee maker, bathroom toiletries, a record turntable & quality linen.
The outdoor area & recently planted front garden added to the experience.
We ran a masterchef competition each night so the range of kitchen appliances, utensils & servingware made our efforts very presentable.
We happily recommend staying here.
