Neighbourhood Description:
Golden Square sits on the fringe of central Bendigo and is, as the name suggests, the place where gold was first discovered in Bendigo. As a result, the neighbourhood streets are filled with period homes typical of the gold-rush era. The Golden Square Recreational Reserve and public swimming pool precinct lie diagonally across from the cottage and the Golden Square Village is at the end of the street. The Bendigo Creek trail is a 3min walk away which spans the entire city and it is common for people to walk, cycle or run their way along the creek for leisure and exercise. The central Woolworths is a convenient 1min drive or 8min walk away.

Getting Around:
There are a number of ways to get around Bendigo, however the most common and convenient is by car. There is plenty of parking available in the centre of town at low cost and you can quite easily get to most destinations in 5-10minutes from the cottage. There is off-street parking on the premises with capacity to fit one vehicle very comfortably and free street parking. The closest bus stop is 500m away and is a direct 7min bus trip to central Bendigo station. The Bendigo historic tram service is a scenic way to see the city and passengers can purchase tickets and alight the tram at Central Deborah Gold Mine which is a 15min walk or 3min drive away from the cottage.
