Wow. From the moment we drove in the driveway, my partner and I were blown away by the beauty of Forth River Cottage and treated with the utmost kindness and generosity - Sally greeted us with a lovely smile and bucket of broad beans for our dinner!
Hard to describe this special place in a few sentences but we had the most wonderful short stay with Sally and Louise - we couldn't possibly fault a single thing. We came for a two night stay after staying at a luxury resort in Cradle Mountain over Christmas; however at the cottage we felt like we had found not only the most beautiful, luxurious place but also the best hosts ever!
Nothing is too much to ask for and all the thoughtful touches (fully stocked pantry and fridge! fresh local produce! incredible Tasmanian-made toiletries! fresh flowers from the peony farm down the road!) added up to make an unforgettable stay. Sally and Louise even gave me a beautiful bottle of Tasmanian wine to help celebrate my birthday.
They also helped us find the local penguin spotting area and recommended plenty of local places to eat (with their handy guidebook!)
Our one regret (that seems to be echoed by many on here) is that we only stayed for two nights!
Will definitely be back!
Thank you so much again.
