If you like art & nature, this is the place to stay. Caroline's place is very well presented, comfortable & cosy when the temperature drops. Great to sit & watch the local pademelons foraging in the grass below the lounge room picture window, where you also get a pretty good view of the Derwent through the trees. The downside is that the shops, cafes & restaurants are a walk involving quite a steep s-bend. You definitely need a car to get around as the wharf area & CBD are a good 25 minute walk down the steep hill. Probably ok to walk down, but the return would not be for the feint-hearted. Good thing is that if you want to enjoy a drink at one of the many fabulous bars or restaurants, cabs are readily available & only $10-12.00 each way.
