The cottage was really fantastic as a base to explore Hobart. The location of the cottage was awesome - we could walk everywhere within the historic part of Hobart and the waterfront. The cottage was also the best equipped for a family stay that we have ever stayed in - enormous thank you to the hosts for thinking of everything. We would love to stay here again.

Such a warm, cozy, welcoming bolthole in the best location in Tasmania. Generously appointed with everything a family would need for a comfy holiday. Very grateful for the stocked fridge, woodpile, bathrooms and spot-on local advice. Can’t recommend highly enough.

A lovely stay in a wonderful part of Hobart

Our family had a lovely stay in this cottage. It's in a great part of town, close to markets, restaurants and cafes. The house was very well appointed and communication with Elle was always quick and very friendly. We'd love to come back one day.

Cosy Cottage with great hosts

From the minute I contacted Elle, she could not do more to help. She went as far as purchasing a travel cot for us to use for our stay. We were greeted by a beautiful fruit platter and other little goodies. Everything is so well stocked; laundry powder, toiletries, condiments, zip-lock bags etc. For that, we were very grateful. Would love to have some history of the original part of the home displayed/available for interests sake. So conveniently located at the end of the street about 100m walk is the most delicious patisserie; Jackman and McRoss.Compared to other places we’ve stayed in the area, you’re definitely paying for the location. Not sure the price truly reflects what you get for your money. It was cozy but wasn’t as luxurious as the price reflected and the photos portrayed. The beds were quite hard especially on the second night. The main bedroom requires some maintenance; the ensuite door doesn’t shut properly and main light globe in the ensuite must be blown- doesn’t work. Also the door into the main bedroom is hard to close/open and makes a big ‘clunk’ which is not ideal when there are babies asleep in the room.
