Lovely area close to the beach and walking distance to the main street. Room and other areas were clean and beautifully presented. Katinka, our host, was friendly and explained the current history of the place (as we had stayed there on previous occassions). It was nice to see the extra effort with the Easterdecoration and chocolate eggs throughout.

Wonderful building great location. Very short stroll to the penguin lookout. Even saw a penguin in the front yard when we returned from the lookout. And lots of wallaby's in the your and on the street at night. Fantastic views from the room and the property. Highly recommended. Would not hesitate to stay here again. If you are going to Tasmania put this place on your bucket list.
