“Spacious two bedroom home. Very old heritage, though comfortable and clean. Due to the age of the property there are very few power points though we managed. Paul, the host was very helpful and welcoming. A bar-b-q on the property would be a bonus.”

The perfect historical & very homely two-bedroom base to explore the Goldfields - whether it's festivals, gigs or eateries in nearby Castlemaine, or the Harcourt Bushland Reserve directly behind with easy access under the trainline. Please note - you are looking at part of the house (left side of front pic) which is privately partitioned. You can rent the entire house - 3 bed, two bath - by viewing our profile. 2kms from the Calder Freeway 3kms from Harcourt 5kms from Castlemaine 2 large bedrooms with fans and oil heaters. Large patio with outdoor table and garden. Ample parking. Baby supplies (chair, travel cot bath available upon request). Barkers Creek is home to the Dja Dja Wurrung people. It was the first place that gold was discovered in the Mount Alexander Shire. An extension of Castlemaine, today it has roughly 450 residents. However, back in the Goldrush, it had around 10,000 people residing here as well as 16 pubs. If you head up the nearby Specimen Gully Road you can view the remnants of some of the original abodes. Our retro/historical farmhouse was one of the childhood homes of Albert Facey, the author of the million-selling Australian classic 'A Fortunate Life'.
Young family who work in music and arts.
Our home is 5kms from Castlemaine and 2kms from the Calder Highway.
