My partner and I had the most amazing time at Firetail Bush Retreat! Such a beautiful and inspiring location, surrounded by trees, mountains and wildlife. Secluded enough to give us space to relax, but also conveniently close to Hobart and other towns for shopping and dining. Do not miss out on using the outdoor hot tub, it was great to unwind in the tub at the end of the day with a glass of wine, amazing view and wallabies hopping past! The bed was super comfortable and it was nice to curl up near the wood fire and read books or watch a movie at night. Sonia and Damien were out of the state while we were visiting but their son Sam was a fantastic host during our stay. He gave us our privacy but was also happy to help out with setting up the hot tub or giving us any advice or tips when we asked. A big thank you to Sonia and Damien for letting us stay at Firetail, this was our very first Airbnb experience and it was absolutely perfect in every way!
Suggestions for things to do in the area:
- Visit MONA (Museum of Old and New Art in Berriedale)
- Go to the Salamanca Market in Hobart (Saturday's)
- Try the food at Daci & Daci bakery on Murray St in Hobart (there is a reason it has such great reviews online! The chocolate macaroons were my favorite!)
- Visit Richmond for lunch and wander around the cute shops
- Go on the Tahune Airwalk just outside Geeveston (even the drive there was amazing!)
