Compass Hut

"We were so looking forward to staying in a tiny house as we live off grid ourselves and were interested to see how others do it. Unfortunately we were disappointed to say the least. We stayed at Colonial Blue. The exterior of the tiny house looked quite run down and the cottage garden was very overgrown and unkempt. We were aware that the bathroom was in a separate tiny house but didn't realise that you had to go down several stairs, along a gravel path and then up more stairs to the bathroom. Made night time trips to the loo awkward to say the least. There was also quite an odour coming from the loo. We are used to composting toilets and the ones we use do not smell!! The bathroom itself was lovely but no bathrobes as advertised on the website. Disappointed that the bed wasn't in the loft area as that would have given more room inside. Also a microwave would be a nice addition for heating up takeaways or prepared food. Kitchen was well stocked but no chopping board! The outside furniture was not sturdy and we had to be careful sitting on the chairs as they felt like they were going to give way at any moment. All in all we had a very disappointing experience considering all the wonderful reviews I read before I booked. For what was offered I felt it was overpriced."

The Grand on Macfie

"It was a wonderful experience to enjoy breakfast in a 123-year-old house. I booked the only breakfast during this trip to Australia and it was worth the money. The room and balcony on the second floor can see the cruise ship of Devonport and the Light of Tasmania. The room is very retro, the front desk is very enthusiastic, and it is a very distinctive hotel."

Hawley House

"Wonderful old world experience with character and comfort. Drinks in the drawing room overlooking lawn pond and sea; eclectic decor from 19 th century to mid 20th; proper dining room service for breakfast and comfy room with balcony. Would recommend for a relaxing getaway. Great for a wedding!"

Barclay Motor Inn

"Easy check in and out, very clean and kitchen fully equipped with cooking utensils 👍👍👍, love the house-small and cozy."

Silver Ridge Retreat

"Beautiful peaceful location below Mount Roland. Great cabin style accommodation that has everything you need - good size fridge. Great heated swimming pool in sauna style pine building with the sun pouring in through the windows. Beautiful sunset reflections off Mt Roland in farm pond. Nice welcome and lots of helpful information. Sheffield just 19 mins away for supplies. One hour 15 to Cradle Mountain. Thoroughly recommend."
