Family-friendly vacation rentals in Castlemaine

We had a great time in Melbourne. The apartment was well located and we were able to walk to all of the places and events that we wanted to see and do. There were restaurants and supermarkets nearby and the Yarra River and Southbank Entertainment Precinct were only two blocks away. The apartment was situated within walking distance of the free tram network.

This was our third time staying here and there’s a reason we keep coming back! It’s gorgeous and so peaceful - would definitely recommend.

Thoroughly enjoyed the peaceful environs and clean comfortable and convenient property with a friend. We cooked using the very well appointed kitchen and the property was spacious very clean. Rooms looked out into the leafy backyard, we had our own bathrooms and slept well in the very comfortable beds. Thanks Denise!

The perfect spot to stay in Daylesford. This immaculate house has a dreamy view across the valley. Immaculately clean, this property is spacious and has every amenity a guest requires for a beautiful stay. Close enough to town that we walked in for dinner but so quiet and relaxing. We have been to Daylesford several times and would definitely stay in James’s property again.

We had a lovely stay. Check in was easy. It’s a cosy, clean and comfortable space. We loved all the wonderful art around the property. We also enjoyed the jacuzzi on the deck. It was a short walk into town and just around the corner from the Mill market. We could hear our neighbours easily but they weren’t there for the whole weekend.

Thanks Michele, we loved our short stay in your cottage. It had everything that we needed and more. It was in a beautiful area and it was so peaceful, which is what we were hoping for. When we are back in the Hepburn region we will definitely look at booking again. Thank you, Leanne

A lovely place for our extended family to come together for a weekend. Plenty of room to hang out, with own bedrooms. Great location, and wonderful View

We booked this stunning Daylesford house for our best friend’s 40th — and WOW, what a weekend! The vibes were immaculate, the house was beyond gorgeous, and we spent three days laughing, grazing, and sipping Prosecco like queens. Perfect for a girls’ getaway and milestone celebration!

Beautiful place to stay! The house was spacious for 5 people with a beautiful outdoor area as well. The town is walking distance so heaps to do around the area. Geraldine is friendly and super easy to communicate with! She left us a welcome pack with some treats and snacks that were greatly appreciated!! Would definitely be back.

If I had to use one word to describe our stay it would be generous: Thank you so much for allowing us to use your lovely house as our base: It's gorgeous, roomy and homely. It's also well placed for getting around Melbourne. Griselda is also the most generous and responsive of hosts with lots of supplies for us when we arrived that were most were most welcome. The house is also very generous with all the space and things that make it feel like home. The house is much bigger than it appears on the photographs and has lots of different living areas internally and externally. We couldn't have been happier during our time here. It really was a home away from home for the weeks we have stayed. Thanks again and lovely to have visited:-))

We had a great stay at Daylesford Country Retreats. The accommodation was just as described and as per the photos. The beautiful scenery around the property made our stay so peaceful. We will definitely be coming back again. Thank you for having us!

Beautiful place, spacious for two and very cosy. Loved the fireplace on the rainy night. Little additions like having tea/coffee and breakfast items made it easy to stay in if we didn’t need to leave straight away. Would go back if in Bendigo again!

Lovely old miners cottage. Great bed. Had everything required for a relaxing stay. Short walk into Daylesford. Nice extra touches.

This holiday was like an historical immersive experience/ museum. We loved it. The furnishings, the crockery, the knick knacks and the record collection were all excellent We played Trivial Pursuit , whilst listening to Rod Stewart, Rikki Lee Jones and the Beach Boys. What fun. Loved not having a telly. The sky was clear, filled with stars and magnificent Thx Jenny A really special place to stay

Enjoyed our stay in Richmond. Erika & Chris’s place is a spacious, modern apartment down a quiet alleyway. Has all the amenities needed, and is within walkable distance to both West Richmond and North Richmond train stations, as well as nearby bus & tram stops.

Great set up of the house. Kitchen has plenty of space, easy to get in and out. Excellent price, and would love to come back!

The location, the building and the apartment are all perfect. Host was excellent- had an issue with the air-con and he immediately brought people over to fix it. Will definitely stay here every time we visit Melbourne. Thank you Ethan!

My three generational family spent a week in Julie's place for the F1 weekend. I cannot recommend this place highly enough. The bedrooms were all spacious with loads of storage, the beds extremely comfortable, sheets crisp and white. A porta cot for my 4-month-old grandson was provided. The bathrooms were very clean and had all the amenities you could need, towels white and fluffy. The kitchen had absolutely everything you needed and then some. Even milk in the fridge. A spacious dining table that sat 8 plus a highchair for my 2-year-old granddaughter. The lounge area had more than enough room for the adults as well as a plentiful supply of toys for the grandies. The location was perfect, right in front of a tram stop and a few minutes' walk away from the Crown Casino and Southbank bars and restaurants. The hostess Julie was brilliant, replied to texts immediately and even accommodated our late check out at the last minute. I absolutely would go back again. The pool is great too.

We had such a great stay at Tikali’s place. The apartment was spotless, stylish, and the building had great amenities (loved the pool!). The location couldn’t have been better; right near parks, which was perfect for our dog Buffy, and within easy walking distance to the city. It was the ideal base for our Melbourne trip, and Tikali was a responsive and thoughtful host. We really enjoyed our time here and would absolutely stay again.

Great location, 300m from tram, 500m from train station. Clean, quiet, super comfy bed, toiletries were a nice touch which made the place feel more luxurious, outstanding communication - best I’ve ever had with an airbnb host. Great place to stay as a solo traveller or a couple.

The apartment was fantastic with incredible views and great access to Southbank restaurants and CBD. Colin was a excellent host. Very responsive, informative and accommodating. Will definitely stay again in the future!

We loved this Air BNB! It was spotlessly clean, had lovely city views, and was close to cafes, restaurants, shops, train station, trams etc. The pool and spa were great - the spa was so nice and warm which was very relaxing on a cold day. All communication with the host was speedy and helpful. Would definitely recommend!

Really great spot that we enjoyed. Awesome views of the city off the balcony and everything you need in the apartment. Nice rooftop space and a pool underneath which we utilised well. It is a prime location with a short walk to the city and 20 minute walk to Rod Laver. Woolworths and bottle-o just around the corner. Only thing I would note is the sofa bed may need an upgrade. It is sleep able, but not overly comfy and after 3 nights that was long enough. Please note it is not a huge issue though 😊 Thanks for the stay!

Nice clean apartment. About 20-25 minutes walk from town. Nice coffee shop and restaurant downstairs. Bed was a bit on the firm side but worked out fine for us. Shower, toilet and sink separated by clear glass walls. Clean place.
