Ashwood - family-friendly accommodation in a park-like setting
6 guest comments - average rating is: 4.3 out of 5
This one and a half acre property is a great base from which to explore the cultural and historic attractions of the Castlemaine district.
Just a few minutes easy driving to Castlemaine township. the house offers seclusion and tranquillity in a natural setting. Kangaroos are regular visitors to the property and birdlife is abundant.
The property is fenced and offers an ideal and safe environment for children. There is lots of space to run around and trees to hide behind. A long gravel driveway gives plenty of scope for riding a bike within the confines of the property. There is also a padded trampoline to play on.
Head out the gate for a pleasant stroll around Fryerstown, or follow one of the many walking tracks in the Goldfields National Park, with their fascinating relics of the past such as stone miners' huts and blacksmiths' forges. The popular picnic spot of Vaughan Springs is also nearby.
Further afield you can make an excursion to Daylesford, an easy twenty minute drive. Bendigo is a half hour. Picturesque villages like Guildford and Newstead, and the many ancient cottages and farmhouses which dot the landscape make this region a photographer's paradise.
