A great way to unwind
The accommodation was lovely. The sitting area upstairs is a great place to read and unwind. The bed was comfortable and the stay on a whole was like a tonic for the mind and body

Natural hideaway
Our stay in studio-two was wonderful - what a beautifully designed, spacious space. Private, well-secluded among the trees, with views and sunsets.

Beautiful place to stay in Castlemaine and Nicola is a lovely host - we'll definitely go back and stay again.
The place was beautifully elegant. A glorious retreat tucked amongst gum trees and floral paths.
Nicola ensured my stay was comfortable and checked in to see if I had everything I required.
There fridge had been even been stocked with breakfast supplies !!!!!
The bed was super comfortable with a view worthy of a magazine spread.
Highly recommend

Beautiful two level apartment in a modernly renovated old building. A lot of effort has gone into designing the interior of this space and it makes for such a relaxing stay.
The well equipped kitchen means you can cook if you'd like but it is also a nice walk into the town to eat out.
I'd highly recommend be&be and would be happy to stay there again!
