NOMINATED FOR 2021 GOLDEN PLATE AWARDS

now under new ownership

what the judges said in 2019

The Five Flags in Campbells Creek (five minutes from Castlemaine) is a charming, popular, family-friendly hotel that serves meals of high quality and exceptional value for money.  This traditional looking country hotel serves a good range of skilfully prepared, delicious and hearty meals. The atmosphere is welcoming and there’s exceptional value for money here. Multiple eating areas include a sheltered rear garden for the warmer months. Now under the management of enthusiastic new owners Yvonne, Neville and Michael Purchase, the Five Flags has a very enjoyable atmosphere and there’ are good choices in wines, beers and ciders (including local drops).  Like most hotels orders are placed at the bar but the dining experience compares favourably with most restaurants.  Five Flags is a fine example of how good a country pub can be!
