We loved our stay at beautiful Hanlon Guest House. The house has been beautifully restored and has everything you need. The bed was very comfortable. Great location - easy to walk to The Nut and see the gorgeous fairy penguins so close by, and easy walking distance to the fabulousness quirky Stanley Wine Bar. We'd highly recommend staying here.
