Marina and Uwe’s place is set in the hills of South Hobart with gorgeous views across Hobart, the river and a backdrop of hills in the distance. We stayed right in the heart of winter - with snow on Mt Wellington (amazing views as we were walking around South Hobart). Despite the cold, we still enjoyed the views inside thanks to the massive windows. Lots of blankets were provided to keep warm, with a split system heater that did a good job! The area is beautiful, half hour stroll to CBD and Salamanca, with some good local cafes nearby. We loved Bear With Me cafe (5-10min walk) and the local grocer was well stocked. We had no issues getting an Uber or taxi when we couldn’t be bothered walking back up the hill from town after dinner - generally $8-$9 for the trip back and never waited more than 2 minutes for a ride. We also enjoyed jogging the nearby cascade trail onto the trails at the base of Mt Wellington. Beautiful! If you want a unique stay with magnificent views a little bit out of town, this is a great find.
