Waking up to the sound of birds and the views out over the Orchard made this a perfect country escape. We absolutely loved staying in Shannon and Daniels Barn, which was comfortable and cosy in every way. It's in such a beautiful spot with easy access to many walks, either in the mountains or down towards the coast. You can easily get to Hobart, Bruny island, Mt Wellington/Kunanyi and the Hartz Mountains as well as lots of other lovely spots. There is a lovely organic bakery about 4 km away in Ranelagh which does great coffee and sourdough bread. After a long day hiking and adventuring, you can come home to a nice relaxing bath and a cupboard full of board games. Shannon and Daniel are nearby with tips on what to do locally if you need them, however they leave you to enjoy your privacy in the peace and quiet of the countryside if you don't. Highly recommended! Only wish we had stayed longer 😊
