My husband and I really enjoyed this sweet and cozy cottage. It was clean and had everything that we needed. It’s a quick drive or you can walk to everything you need. The neighborhood is quiet and lovely. The owner was quick to communicate and we loved the sweet surprise of a little honey upon arrival. On a beautiful afternoon, we enjoyed some snacks and wine in the back yard. We found the bed to be comfortable and loved the fireplace. My husband is 6’5 so he had a bit of trouble not hitting his head on a few of the low door jams but that’s part of the charm of a place built in the 1800’s! We would definitely stay here again if we ever make the journey back to Tasmania.
