What a perfect location! Being literally right next to Cataract Gorge we were there nearly every day exploring, it's absolutely spectacular! Walk or take the chairlift across to the other side in the late afternoon and you may see the wallabies out and about (my daughter was lucky enough to feed them). The peacocks are amazing too!
The house was a great place for the kids, Chris supplied a porta-cot and highchair, plus there are a bunch of kids books too. Kids also loved the bath, and cleanup was easy with the wooden floorboards.
Very close to the heart of the city, you'll only drive a few minutes. Queen Victoria Museum was great for the rainy day we were there and Penny Royal is also very close.
Chris was great with communication, highly recommended. Cant wait to come back to Tassie - missing it already!
