Carman's Tunnel and Mine Ruins
Within 10 minutes of the cottage
Discover the remnants of Maldon's gold-mining past at Carman's Tunnel and other historic sites throughout the district.
Carman's Tunnel is a gold mining tunnel about 570 metres long, dug into the hillside in the 1880s. A guide takes you through it by candlelight to show how the miners worked. Tours run at set times, so it's worth checking ahead before you go.
“What an amazing 3 nights we had in this amazing cottage. When I walked in I felt as if I was going back in time. Also, thank you Steven for keeping in touch to make sure everything was going fine. Thank you to the chookies for the eggs. Hope to see you again soon”
