10/10 Excellent
"What a delightful place to arrive at. We booked this because it was close to Port Arthur and it did not disappoint. We were in one of the new demountables, that was fully accessible, huge bathroom with every possible aid included. Great fixtures. Good kitchen area, complete with cooktop, microwave, toaster, cooking pots & pans etc, tea, coffee, honey, jam and even marshmallows!!!!! A lovely surprise. Double roller shades on window, comfortable bed with electric blanket!! Thank you. Huge double doored wardrobe with everything you could possible need. Ironing board & iron, box of tissues and extra pillows, blanket etc. Grounds were beautiful. Had a covered barbecue area, with big comfy chairs and bean bags, draped with fairy lights. Very pretty at night. You could not ask for more here. We were so happy with our stay. Wish we could have stayed longer."

10/10 Excellent
"Tasmania is beautiful and this property highlights lovely views of the paddock, vineyard, orchard, and bay! We only stayed one night but were able to enjoy the walking track to see many of the animals (including Pickle and Warren), catch a rainbow after a light rain, and watch the sunset! We had reserved a "pod" room, but were actually upgraded to a pavilion room, which was near the paddock. I liked the skylight feature and wood walls. The coffee amenities were a nice touch, as well as the bottled water (especially after our walk). Our room was clean and we slept well, very quiet. We left early in the morning for the airport -- and we saw a wallaby hopping along the path! (Yes, be careful and drive slowly.)"

"We stayed in a 2 bedroom unit. Unit is up a long narrow set of stairs. Door opens directly from the car park. There is a view in the distance but you need to look over the car park and over flow carpark plus some houses. The view of a he church tower and farm hills. The bar is directly below so great for dinner options. The unit has sloping roof so beware it’s tight getting around the bed. Unit had toaster and kettle no microwave. Plenty of cutlery plates and cups. It’s set for 4 but this would be very tight. Lounge is a snug 2 so the rest are on dining chairs. As a one night stay got option if you’re not dragging a large suitcase up the stairs."
