Don't let the location put you off, Simon's place is in the hills to the west of Devonport but just 8 minutes from downtown and 10 minutes from the Spirit of Tasmania terminal. We chose Simon's place for our first night in Tasmania after a Spirit of Tasmania day sail from Melbourne, and a last night in Tasmania prior to a day sail return to Melbourne. A great place to spread out and reorganise luggage after the confines of the ship. The house was as described. The separate toilets were appreciated.
