Stone Edge Style, Abundant Ambience
We had such a wonderful anniversary in the South Cottage. Every detail was delightful and the impeccable but cheerful lodgings are exceedingly comfortable. We won't spoil the treats from the hosts, but evidently all seasons and tastes are well catered for.
The stylish living area/couch is comfortably stacked with cosy cushions to relax, and the adjoining kitchen/meals is well equipped with all the utensils and condiments you need, plus some wonderful fresh produce surprises to make your breakfast sing. The bathroom is beautifully renovated and every amenity is thoughtfully considered.
Stepping up to the oversized ambient bedroom, we loved the music touch on arrival. The bed is super luxurious with more puffy cushions to devour in your sleep.
Our host, Jackie, is incredibly inviting and helpful but unobtrusive, with ideas for restaurants and adventures in Castlemaine. We took the slow pace as it was hot and walked into the Botanical Gardens. We dined at Wild and shopped at an amazing IGA for lunch produce to add to our fresh bread. Sitting on the front deck at dusk was a highlight for us, drinking in the peaceful beauty and native surrounds. There are also private outdoor/shaded pockets to sit but we relished the sun splashed deck.
We enjoyed The Mill, walking around the closed old Castlemaine Gaol (still lots of statues to see for free) and the lovely history of the buildings. So much to see!
We strongly recommend this to others. You can even park close to your cottage.
