Hannah's coach house was beautifully appointed, subtle and comfortable, having all the necessary modern conveniences. It served us well as a 'base camp' while we visited a few old and new Hobart haunts. We had a car, which made it very easy to cross into inner city Hobart at a whim, but if you don't, it's also very close to shopping and I saw a few places to eat around Bellerive and Rosny Park. But as I have no experience with the public transport, I couldn't comment on it's convenience.
Meanwhile, Hannah's family living next door were very welcoming (including their two cats) but were happy to give us our privacy.
All in all it was a perfect place for us to see Hobart from.
