Really great stay, easy to organise and reception helpful. Someone took my car spot before I came back in the evening so that was annoying- but there was a car spot on the street nearby.
Woke up during the night because the room was cold- turned on heater and used an extra blanket and was all good.
Location was easy to get to everything nearby that I wanted to visit in the morning.

Beautiful place to stay and close to Castlemaine. It had everything we needed for our short stay and we had great communication and a lovely welcome from the owners. We appreciated the sourdough bread for the morning too :)

Lovely old gold boom architecture, beautiful tree-lined streets (great in autumn).
Amazing bookshop.
The Mill (recently recycled industrial complex) is very well done with interesting and high quality specialist outlets (cheese, wine, smallgoods, etc.) and a great Viennese cafe (couldn't believe it!).

A pleasant country town with a lot of history. Nice tree lined streets and old historic buildings. The road traffic through the town centre is a bit chaotic and too fast making it a bit tricky to cross at times. Some Nice coffee shops in town and the visitor information centre is worth a visit.

Castlemaine is a picturesque town, some good attractions from what I saw in the almost two days I was there. Would go back to the Five Flags Hotel again where I had dinner. The old prison is amazing, never seen anything like it.

Castlemaine is an interesting city with lots of accommodation and dining options. It is designed around tourism and there are lots of interesting shops and attractions. The surrounding areas are interesting too. We could have spend more time there. The town centre is easily walked.

with our accommation at Goldenray, there was no sitting room, no lounges or padded chairs, no wardrobes that were open, there was no proper kitchen, we could only walk from bedroom to bedroom and up the hallway when inside, we were aware that the owner was sharing the other part of the house, not quite what we expected.

Accessible for travellers without a car.
Accessible for travellers without a car. Train station easy distance to town accomodation, galleries, cafes, botanic gardens, dining. For walkers, the Goldfields track passes north and south, and cyclists have access to bush trails.
The tent was spacious and well appointed; had pretty well everything you could ask for and expect from a luxury family-sized experience... better than most hotels that we've stayed at. The amazing thing was how clean the tent was - including all the cups/utensils and bedding. Just brilliant. The AC was quiet and worked well to warm the tent. The claw-foot bath on the decking was beautiful. The beds and bathroom was brilliant, and our 12/16yo actually had fun in the children's nook.
We were in Castlemaine for a wedding at nearby Ravenswood Homestead, which was a lovely spot for a wedding/reception. We arrived Saturday afternoon and checked out Sunday morning so did not spend a lot of time in Castlemaine, we did however visit Johnny Baker (downtown) for breakfast which is a lovely bakery that has a great park across the road where we had our coffee. Unfortunately on this trip, we didn't have any spare time to do much else in the town.
The location was excellent, the facilities modern and very comprehensive; there is a good view from the living room and balcony, and a couple of minutes by car from both the town centre and the Mill. Walking distance to the amazing art gallery in the old Castlemaine gaol. The host, Bev, lives on site and was there to assist whenever needed, but otherwise left us to our privacy.
Lodge was close to station and town , easy walking to sites around Castlemaine. Our host was very friendly, made us very welcome. Knowledgeable of the area , sites to see, places to eat. Some rooms on 1st floor which some people may find difficult however we had no issue.
We had a wonderful experience. Rooms were clean, comfortable and had all the things you need. The sourdough breakfast was a good start to the day. Jane was great to deal with. I would recommend this motel for anyone visiting Castlemaine.

This is a lovely heritage conversion that is very well appointed and extremely comfortable in the Castlemaine winter. Warm and comfortable. The included breakfast was a lovely surprise and our host was lovely.
The Castle Motel was close to the centre of town, the room was very warm (we were here on a cold night in May), the bed was comfortable & the staff were friendly. Everything you could want for a short stay.
I didn't eat the breakfast, but is was a cozy and comfortable good old Pub Hotel! We got upgraded to a private bathroom which was nice. Next time we come we will come up to see a band at this hotel.
The property is beautifully situated right behind the Botanical Gardens and close to all the places in The Mill precinct, as well as the Railway and Bridge Hotels. The glamping tents were so cosy.
Considering the disruptions of covid Fig accommodation and cafe are a wonderful haven. I'm so impressed they keep going so cheefully and the service is still excellent.
The owner was wonderful. We appreciate all the love and care. Our visit to Castlemaine was made better by your hospitality.
Thank you so much for a memorable visit.
