What a little gem hidden away 10kms from Port Arthur. The small cottage was spotlessly clean and well presented. The facility had everything you require from multiple dishes, cutlery, cooking essentials and utensils, dishwasher, brochures of what was around the area and more. The beds were super comfortable, the shower was great and the living area warm and cosy. Overall it was a really enjoyable stay.

There was nothing we didn't like, but just a suggestion for other travellers. Make sure you shop before arriving. as the nearest supermarket is 20 or so minutes from the accommodation. No big deal, but after a long drive, we had to get in the car again to go and buy our essentials as we didn't realise this before arriving.

From the moment of making the booking to the end of our stay each step was exceptional. We received detailed information by email of places to go and things to see, even where to obtain groceries before arrival. There was a well presented, detailed folder in the room of tourist attractions, restaurants etc. The location was perfect for close proximity to Port Arthur and the region for day trips. Denise and Justin were so friendly and helpful. The room was immaculate, so clean and tidy and comfortable. Thoroughly recommend.

That we had to continue on our journey!

A lovely modern cottage with everything we needed for a short stay, nicely decorated, comfy bed, with sharp knives [very rare] plenty of crockery, cutlery, glassware & cooking utensils. We especially appreciated the extras provided by Denise....maps of Tasmania and the Tasman Peninsula, and 2 different daily itineraries to follow which allowed us to get the best out of our stay.

Nothing to report.

The staff were excellent with great recommendations. The cottage was cozy. A washer and dryer onsite was helpful.

The parking was tight and the cottages really close together. We didn’t mind because we were out all day and just needed a place to sleep and be able to do laundry. There was only 1 of each. We got lucky and didn’t get stuck unable to do a load when needed.

Denise is a great host! We enjoyed our stay there. We saw wallabies hopping in and out the garden in the dark, munching the grass and leave their “thank you” presents on the patch 🤣. We saw stars and moon, even southern aurora! The location is near to all attractions too.

This is a property managed by Justin and Denise that has a homely feeling within the cottage. The property is on the Port Arthur Highway, the accommodation is only 15 minutes from most of the tourist attractions in Port Arthur. The room was very cozy and clean.

We lived in a studio that was facing Port Arthur Highway. It was noisy during the late evening and early morning due to traffic movement. You may want to opt for a studio/room that's a bit further away from the highway.

Pristine cleanliness and very well kept. Spacious room, comfortable bed and pillows, and good sized bathroom. Handy having the coin operated communal washing machine and tumble dryer available

Not the properties fault, but the location right on Arthur Highway meant the traffic noise was loud in the cottage.

Clean comfortable studio apartment well equipped for a short stay. Lots of good quality info provided on the local attractions and services. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Great to have laundry facilities available and handy they also offer mini bar options. Close to all the major attractions in the area.

Can hear some road noise as well as from the adjoining unit but nothing too upsettig

The place was exceptional from the owner managers Justin and Denise who tried to think of everything to make our stay very comfortable and addressed any needs we had. The units are very well fitted out already and the owners are continually upgrading them An extremely comfortable and well located stay for exploring the Tasman Peninsula. We really appreciate how well everything from Kitchen facilities, to bathroom and bedroom were completely functional.

Comfortable and spacious rooms. The cottage was clean and the kitchen had everything we needed for the stay. Parking was next to the cottage and shared laundry was great.

The cottages are close together so privacy is an issue. The entry and kitchen window faces the adjoining cottage so we could not open the blinds or window when guests next door. It might be just us but I was not comfortable looking in on someone else’s privacy.
