At BIG4 Castlemaine Gardens Holiday Park we believe in the power of stepping away from screens and reconnecting with the world around us.
Nestled in the heart of the stunning Goldfields region and next door to the beautiful 25-hectare Castlemaine Botanical Gardens and nature reserve, our park is perfectly positioned for a truly immersive nature experience.
Reconnect and switch off
It is more than just a place to stay — it’s an experience that encourages exploration and fun and that creates meaningful, magical holiday memories. We offer a range of onsite activities and facilities designed to get kids outdoors and engaged, from an adventure course, a Sensory Garden, sandpit and Games Room to running through sprinklers on warm days or gathering around a winter campfire to toast marshmallows under the stars. During school holidays there are nature-inspired craft activities, including garden treasure hunts to collect natural materials for art projects. Whether it’s making leaf collages, painting rocks, or simply getting their hands dirty, our activities encourage creativity and mindfulness. Beyond the park, there are surrounding bushlands and landscapes, local walking and cycling trails, the award-winning creative play space at the Botanical Gardens, swimming holes and so much more. Our region’s gardens and national parks are easily accessible and add to the unique experience of staying with us. At BIG4 Castlemaine, it’s all about slowing down, embracing the simple joys of life, and giving kids the chance to fully immerse themselves in the natural beauty of the park and its surroundings. So, unplug, explore, and discover the magic of nature with us.
