The Bazaar is part of The Mill, Castlemaine’s happy place. Opposite the Botanical Gardens the site of the old Castlemaine Woollen Mill has been rejuvenated and is now a retail and leisure destination go-to zone for locals and tourists looking for, well, retail and leisure. There is a roastery, cafe, makers of cheese, wine, chocolate, cured meats, brewery, bakery, ice cream magician, furniture and metal artisans and general office spaces for businesses. It’s humming alright.
