Maldon Relax

We really enjoyed 3 nights at the cottage, although the power was off one day it was not a problem as all needs were available on gas. The cottage is beautifully presented with a great array of cooking & interesting books & magazines. Beds are comfortable & everything is very tidy & clean. Gayle was a great host & overall the peacefulness of the location & wildlife at your doorstep it is certainly a place to revisit. Robert & Loretta.

Quirky lovely cottage

A minors cottage is what exactly what we expected, quirks and all, and it didn’t disappoint. The kitchen and bathroom was very clean and the various art and furniture was interesting to look at. It can be cold as it’s winter, the hosts stocked us up with firewood each day which kept us warm. Hosts were very obliging.

Pleasant stay in the Goldfields.

This is a nice, old miners cottage in the Goldfields town of Maldon. It is an easy drive to both Castlemaine and Bendigo. The cottage is perfect for 2 or 3 people wanting to explore the area.

The bed and pillows are very comfortable,the lounge stylish and relaxing. The kitchen is fully equipped and there is cofee maker and tea, jams and honey,milk and Anzac biscuits provided. There is a bright reading room which has views over the hills. The entire house is very clean,and we were very happy to stay in such well cared for home.

Cottage in Maldon

Great property offering all the accommodations of home. Very quiet and plenty to do. Plus amazing wildlife literally at your door. So much to do and see at Maldon whether it's a visit at a local cafe and or you are interested in history. Very enjoyable property and area well worth a visit for short and or longer stays. We enjoyed our visit very much and plan to return in the not too distant future.

Goldfields Cottage Maldon

A charming renovated miner's cottage in a quiet location, a short walk to the fascinating old style town centre. I found it a very comfortable base from which to explore the surrounding area. The cottage is clean, beautifully maintained, with a well-appointed kitchen. Highly recommended!
