Castlemaine Botanical Gardens

Botanical garden

👍👍 Awesome and quiet place. Good for a morning walk and run. You would feel the energy and fresh air. Lot of ducks in the water. If you wish to enjoy nature, this is the place for you. Had a nice cold breeze morning walk. Parking is not a problem. Available from 3 sides of the garden. Finding the plac...

BIG4 Bendigo Marong Holiday Park

RV park

👍👍 I haven't rated rooms as we stayed with our van. Amazing people at the park. We arrived late and after hours without a booking after a very frustrating evening - we were answered with a smile and were welcomed to the park with no qualms at all. The park is so clean, the park camp fire already bur...

Johnny Baker Downtown

Bakery

👍👍 Must go here! This chef sure knows his stuff. Highly recommend the Beef Burgundy, Chicken & Leek and the Lamb & Minted Pea Pies. But leave room for the Almond Croissants & Lemon Tarts!!! Wish we had more than 3 days here to try more. Marian & Geoff

Origini Cafe

Northern Italian restaurant

👍👍 Italian cafe in the heart of Castlemaine with home made cakes to die for and authentic Italian pasta, soups and bruschetti. Hugely popular for coffee, but also a great spot for a cheeky glass of wine with lunch. Limited indoor seating and out the front, but there's a gorgeous courtyard out the back...

Coffee Basics Das Kaffeehaus

Cafe

👍👍 Charming, European style coffee house with a wonderful atmosphere and a warm welcome. This is part of Castlemaine's Mill complex and I always have a coffee when I visit. As the Mill is quite a big site with lots of buildings it is best just to follow the signs to coffee or to park near the big brick...

Saffs Cafe

Cafe

👍👍 Overall I was truly impressed by this cafe. The prices were fair and reasonable especially for a breakfast/brunch place ( wasn’t $20 for some eggs on toast). The coffee was great along with the hot chocolate. I had the savoury scrambled it was delicious full of fresh tasting ingredients. Customer se...

Sally's Pizza

👍👍 From Sally’s Pizza at 35 Olympic Parade, Kangaroo Flat, tonight I ordered one of their signature Pizzas, the Sally’s Special, it was laden full of ingredients, ham, mushroom, capsicum, onion, salami, olives, pineapple, prawns and cheese. A real culinary feast for the senses. I ordered it well-done a...

Jirrahlinga Dingo Conservation & Wildlife Education Centre

Tourist attraction

🫤 Tad conflicted here with the rating. This is the only place where I’ve been able to see a wombat that’s not sleeping in its burrow/shelter. So yay for that. This is the smallest wildlife sanctuary I’ve been to which isn’t a bad thing but unless you have young kids with you, you probably won’t spen...

Gallo Coffee Co.

Cafe

👍👍 A hidden gem! Owners that understand the need for a place that the kids are welcome and can have a play while the grownups can relax with a coffee or a yummy meal.

Mount Alexander Regional Park

Park

👍👍 It's a magical place, especially as we had mountain mist. The walk to the lookout is easy. Toilets are clean, flushing. Lots of fireplaces and plenty of parking. Nearby dog rocks are worth seeing.

The Station Cafe Bar Restaurant

Cafe

👍👍 The place, beautiful. The food, yummy. The service, 5 star. Simon was just lovely. He took the time to also give us some history about his background, the Station itself and even some good old ghost stories. This is a place we plan to come back to for dinner and even a quick train trip from Ballarat...

Wild

Restaurant

👍👍 Wild was the perfect little find in Castlemaine. Decor was so gorgeous, with a refitted old fire brigade. The interior was filled with soothing wood. Food was utterly delicious. We wanted to try everything on the menu and managed to get through at least half of the menu between the four of us! Ever...
