This place is awesome & ideal for families! The swan house was a cosy warm inviting BIG house with everything you need to explore the Tamar Valley. Toys for kids (big & small), TAS marsupials visiting the front garden every evening & walking the bank of the Tamar just next door were highlights of our trip. Steadfast in winter storms with a great reverse cycle heating in the central lounge room. Limited dinner dining out options are available in the area in winter - so Bring supplies with you - especially if arriving mid-week like we did. That said- the home-cooked goodies that greeted us could always count as dinner I guess. Thanks Ian & Sue - rarely have we felt so welcome
