Castlemaine Boutique Accommodation presentsCampbell House 1882.



Campbell House has the honor of being bothour largest and grandest property. Renovated and restored to its former glory, this majestic home is now available for you to live out your most regal fantasies.



From the regal lounge room to the historic finishing and antique furniture, walking through this oasis of luxury will transport you to an aristocratic manor from another time (but with all the comforts of modern amenities).



This stunning mansion boasts 9 warm and inviting bedrooms, all with King sized beds that can be converted to single beds, 3 bathrooms andcan sleep up to 18 guests.



With heating throughout and multiple spaces for you and your guests to relax, dine, and enjoy each other's company, Campbell House is ideal for your next family gathering, a getaway with friends, or retreat.For soaking up the sun, Campbell House boasts a huge green backyard, complete with entertaining areas and an eye-catching grand palm that is perfect for a photoshoot.



This historic mansion is a standing landmark to the rich and fascinating history of central Victoria and the colourful people that inhabit it. At Castlemaine Boutique Accommodation we believe in keeping this history alive, so have done some of our own research into this fascinating and unique property. Campbell House was built in the 1800s by Mr. Andrew Campbell, a Scottish settler and pioneer whose successful timber and ironmongery business was famous throughout the entire region. Draped in sadness and romance, the history of this beautiful home is almost reminiscent of Greek tragedy. Like the Taj Mahal before it, Campbell House was built as a testament to love. Mr. Campbell was hopelessly in love with the daughter of famed poet, Robert Burns and built this beautiful mansion for her. Sadly their happy ending was not meant to be as Ms. Burns died only two years after arriving in Castlemaine and Mr. Campbell was left to spend the rest of his days in this grand home alone.

Historical mansion

Great property for a large group of friends. Large backyard- and great weather on the weekend for us to enjoy it. Beds very comfortable. Not great if you don't like stairs- but a good workout

Very charming house, great facilities.

This house had a lot of charm, the rooms were really beautiful. Most rooms were very spacious, some even had sitting areas. The house was very well equipped for the number of people it accommodated, there was nothing missing. The host provided excellent communication. We really enjoyed our stay. The house is very well located, right near the main street. The gardens were beautiful and had many seating options.

Campbell House

The property was excellent and very clean. Amenities were very good and comfortable beds and pillows. Heating in lounge was cosy and rooms had individual aircon units which were independently managed. Very well equipped kitchen and great a great position. Nice to have a backyard area to bbq and enjoy. I'd definitely go back for another visit.

Great stay in a lovely town

Campbell house is spread over three levels. Having two toddlers meant a bit of hand holding up and down stairs but that’s part of the adventure of this house. It’s been beautifully decorated and we loved our stay here. Kitchen/dining is upstairs, so a bit away from the main action but we got used to it. Backyard was fantastic for a kick of the footy with all the kids. Overall, enjoy a wonderful stay in a place that offers magnificent views and space to enjoy a great few days away in Castlemaine.

Magnificence in Castlemaine

We were privileged to stay at Campbell House over a weekend. This is an iconic home, beautifully and tastefully furnished. Renovated with the retention of lovely period features, it offers space within a number of independent living zones. While preserving an atmosphere from a bygone era, Campbell House features all the necessary 21st century luxuries - large screen TVs, WiFi, stereos, reliable hot showers and cloud-like beds. This property provides the pinnacle in relaxation and will not disappoint even the most fastidious guest. A highly recommended stay!
