Ventnor Guest House - A property with a fascinating past; the original homestead Old Mill Farm was built in 1871.

Enjoying the idyllic surroundings of Little Taylors Bay and within proximity to the Cloudy Bay Lagoon and Cape Bruny Lighthouse, Ventnor offers an enchanting cottage accommodation that allows you to immerse in the rich cultural landscape of Bruny Island.

With a captivating past dating back to 1871, Ventnor Guest House - formerly known as 'Old Mill Farm' - has witnessed the transformation of the island. From serving as a Post Office to cultivating apple orchards, and even housing a school, this property beautifully blends old-world charm with modern comforts, providing a unique and memorable holiday experience on Bruny Island.

Ideal for larger groups or families seeking a retreat, Ventnor Guest House can comfortably accommodate up to 10 people. The spacious lounge and dining area create a welcoming ambiance, while a separate lounge featuring classic arcade games are always a hit with the kids - whilst adding a touch of nostalgia for the young at heart.

Step outside to the sheltered outdoor area, complete with a barbecue and dining space, where you can unwind and savour an evening meal under the stars.

Just a stone's throw away, the pristine shores of Little Taylors Bay beckon, offering tranquil beaches and shallow waters for you to enjoy moments of relaxation and connection with nature.
