The location was excellent, the facilities modern and very comprehensive; there is a good view from the living room and balcony, and a couple of minutes by car from both the town centre and the Mill. Walking distance to the amazing art gallery in the old Castlemaine gaol. The host, Bev, lives on site and was there to assist whenever needed, but otherwise left us to our privacy.

Nothing. It was all extremely well run, clean, and with excellent facilities.

Fabulous private guesthouse with beautiful landscaped yard. Fully secure for dogs. The View is amazing, bathroom stunning and very thoughtful touches throughout. We had an amazing sleep on the quality king bed and loved the big bathtub and heated bathroom floor. The perfect escape for us on the cold weekend.

I can’t fault this place. It’s perfect.

The unit was private offering great views over Castlemaine. The finishes within the unit were high quality and well considered. Breakfast consisted of pasties which were delicious but even better was the Nespresso machine which produced fabulous coffee.

There is absolutely nothing to criticize.

I liked how it was super comfortable, warm and Inviting! The Bathroom was exquisite- I loved the Bath! The bed was massive- so spacious warm and comfortable! Let’s def not forget the Gorgeous Views! I came to relax and getaway for an eve, I was not disappointed!!

Everything.

Everything was perfect

Nothing

The location was great. It was a 10 minute walk to where I was working. It was a very short walk to the train station. Lovely local walks in the area. The property felt very homely, it was exceptionally clean and comfortable. Lovely garden. Sufficient cooking facilities provided, including a nice coffee machine. Welcome pack on arrival (lovely baked goods) and lovely toiletries provided. As a lone female traveller I liked having the property owners (Bev and Michael) next door. They went out of their way to welcome me and help me feel settled, including helping me plot local runs, and dropping me off at a local wildlife park which I wanted to visit but was struggling to get a taxi. I was sad to leave.

Nothing to fault

We immediately felt comfortable in the whole space. A hot day arrival, and the unit was cool and calm. Magnificent bed and beautiful east facing deck to sit on with sumptuous views over town in the shade. Welcomed with soft relaxing music playing and awesome pastries from award winning local patisserie.

For a longer stay, a cooktop would be beneficial.

Our host was lovey and greeted us when we arrived. The accommodation was very nice and modern with lovely views from the verandah. Took advantage of the relaxing big bath. The bed was very comfortable. We had lovely pastries on arrival. And it was about a 10 min walk to town, if you didn't want to drive. Castlemaine was a really cute town with some lovely old buildings.

52 Views is a beautifully designed property with an amazing view and thoughtful touches which make staying there very comfortable and enjoyable. Bev and Michael added thoughtful touches for us and our dog, who was very happy in the lovely yard.

it was very well presented, lovely touches and very clean and private

Property was well suited to a couple spending a few days away, with a cozy and well-maintained space. Facilities were modern and clean. Particularly enjoyed the stone bathtub. Additionally, the view out over the town was lovely.

Right from the time of booking Bev, the owner, kept in touch advising all the important info. The apartment itself was immaculately fitted out and furnished. The bedroom is gorgeous and the bathroom to die for. We took pics of it so we can copy it in our own place one day! The was a lovely welcome pack and some delicious pastries from a local bakery waiting for us when we arrived. The door to get in is easy to operate via a key code....no messing around getting physical keys etc. The main house and gardens are also beautiful and it's such a quite spot with awesome views. The old jail is a 2 min walk and very cool. It's less than a 10 min walk to two brilliant pubs....The Railway and The Bridge....and the centre of town about 12 mins. Just perfect. Bev and her husband run things in a first class fashion and I could not recommend 52 Views more highly.

Leaving

This is a property that I don’t want to give a good review to for the fear it will book out. Bev could not have been friendlier. We arrived late Sunday afternoon, worried we would miss finding something open to buy a snack, to find lovely baked items waiting for us. Everything was spotless and tasteful. It was toasty warm and the view is gorgeous.

It is hard to think of anything negative; perhaps just to be aware that it has a kitchenette (including microwave/confection oven, toaster etc) not a full kitchen, but really, who wants to cook up a storm while on holiday?

The place was warm, hospitable, private and exceptionally clean. The owner was really friendly, helpful and communicative. The location is really handy, very close to central Castlemaine and very accessible to the freeway if you're travelling around the area.

The apartment is in a great location with a view over the township. The accommodation is just lovely. Modern, well appointed and spotless. There is a beautiful free-standing bath if you feel like a soak and a lovely bath bomb provided too! The French pastries on arrival was a nice touch. 👌

There isn't anything we didn't like.

Everything was perfect, very comfortable, great hospitality, good spot. We loved it and would love to come back.

Great location near town shops and cafes. Comfortable clean apartment, delightful pastries welcome, lovely deck for evening sip overlooking city with lovely breeze.

Nothing could be finer.

The accommodation was spot on. With large windows, greenery and views over Castlemaine we spent a lot of time on the decking. Inside was very liveable, stunning bathroom and super comfy bed. Surprisingly it reminded me of Ubud. Great coffee shops. Would certainly recommend for an excellent chill out..

There wasn't anything I didn't like..

The views, bedding, and bathroom was exceptional. Loved everything about the place.

Can't fault anything, loved everything about the place. Thanks Bev and Michael for the awesome gifts for our fur babies and the yummies left for us. We will come gain for sure 😊
