Everything about our stay was perfect.
The location was ideal — atop a hill looking across Hobart with a view of the harbour, free all-weekend parking right out the front and town just a short stroll away.
Martin and Caroline were gracious, friendly hosts. They pulled out all the stops to ensure we were comfortable and felt at home — with freshly ground coffee, a massive array of tea, biscuits, milk. Netflix, free-to-air, wifi and plenty of book. They even went to the trouble of warning us of road closures and alternative routes so we wouldn’t miss our flight home.
The place itself was charming, with lots of books, rugs, soft lighting and lovely linens. The bathroom and kitchen were sparkling with modern appliances. The hosts clearly love their place and it felt very special. My favourite part was the verandah overlooking their spacious backyard — a picture-perfect place for a book and wine as the sun goes down.
(We enjoyed this place so much, on both nights we decided to forgo the fabulous Hobart restaurants and instead cook at home to enjoy the place.)
If you’re looking for a rejuvenating, relaxing, home-away-from-home vibe in the heart of Hobart, this is the place.
