We arrived at Craig and Adam's place and were amazed at the beauty, with the main house clad with interesting mud brick and wooden architecture interspersed with lead light windows, surrounded by a colourful and tranquil garden which attracted the native birds. The property was amazingly private, perched up on a hill overlooking a stunning gully and hillside.
Craig and Adam greeted us warmly as soon as we arrived and showed us to our accommodation, which was clean and tidy, the décor well chosen to give an air of warmth, style and character. We thought it looked great and appreciated the touch of freshly cut flowers to complete its elegance. It was a comfortable stay too, with the apartment well equipped, cool in the heat of the day and nice and warm and toasty using the wood heater at night.
On further inspection of the property, we realised that Craig and Adam must put a lot of work into making the place beautiful and serene, both inside and out. When we got to know Craig and Adam it became very obvious to us that they are fantastic in their roles as hosts. They are friendly, accommodating and easy-going guys who we enjoyed having many chats with. They really made us feel welcome and I think they genuinely enjoyed getting to know us, as we did them. They also do a delicious breakfast, served at a time requested by the guest.
We would love to visit again in the future, this time with my easel and art supplies to capture the magnificent scenery at Craig and Adam's and all around Collinsvale.
This was our first stay using airbnb and we had a wonderful time. We would definitely recommend staying at Craig and Adam's place to people looking to have an affordable Hobart holiday in a peaceful setting outside the city but so very close to the Derwent Entertainment Centre and MONA and only a short trip to the city centre, all topped off with fantastic hosts!
