This was definitely in the hidden gem category. The house is spatious and luminous (we loved waking up to the Winter sun and watching it rise over the waters) and beautifully sited in the oldest residential quarter of Hobart. Bénédicte is the soul of tranquillity and she and her family were attentive hosts. We spent a lot of time visiting Tasmania but wish we'd hung out at Bénédicte's. Finally, don't miss the reassuringly old fashioned sweet shop round the corner. Highly recommended and we look forward to returning.
