Amazing venue not far from Hobart. Stayed 2 nights and as it was not very busy upgraded our room. Fireplace to have a drink beside and breakfast was good. Definitely worth a visit
Had the tower suite and even though starting to get a fraction tired the size of the size and the views are incredible! Well furnished with very comfortable bed and great shower!
Beautiful and enchanting! Wonderful experience all around! Highly recommend- you have to find a way to stay here. If we knew it was so nice, we would have stayed 2 nights but we already had paid reservations in another town for the next day. Breakfast included also.
Rooms were lovely, breakfast was great, maybe dining option of a night would have been more convenient then going out for a meal, tv could be updated more channels maybe a smart tv with streaming services that could be accessible and wifi connection
This property is beautiful!! The French Chateau feel was luxurious. Beautiful surroundings with water view.
The host could not have been more helpful. It was a wonderful stay!
It was uniquely set against the mountains and water views were amazing. The provincial decor was very well done a picturesque honeymoon destination with a Tuscany feel. Absolutely recommend and will be back.
Absolutely stunning property. The rooms very amazing and so were the facilities.
A glass of wine by the open fire was never too much trouble for the staff here. Breakfast was yummy each day we were there.
We only stayed for one night but we had a wonderful stay and can’t fault our experience. The facilities were beautiful and the food was delicious. We liked the little extra touches of the fire place and library. View from our balcony was amazing. I can definitely recommend staying and eating here.
Our room and bed were great, the staff and service was also fantastic. We had spent the day driving and were able to relax and have a nice hot shower. Only issue we had was the toilet water flow kept running a couple of times and was a little difficult to stop - we notified reception. The breakfast was delicious!
This place is very close to the seaside, and the decoration is luxurious and grand. The most commendable thing is that the staff's service was very attentive and thoughtful, and the breakfast was also very good. It is recommended to replace the faucet of the bathroom basin and add curtains for the toilet.
Everything was extremely amazing, only downside was the bed was too hard to get a good nights rest on and the shower kept changing temperature when (I assume) another guest used their bathroom.
