The property is amazing, beautiful location, the restaurant is a piece of art, with a great view of the bay. Unfortunately, and that's the reason for the "just" 4 stars rating, the service is not up there. We were there just for breakfast and we waited ages for a coldbut very simple dish (eggs on toast). Such a shame

Poorly executed but a nice place

The stay was fairly good and I would maybe stay there again, there were just quite a few niggly things that could have been better. Booked two queen rooms, one for my mother and one for myself and 9 month old baby. Disappointed at parking - was an effort that required driving the wrong way down one way lanes to unpack luggage or multiple treks across the site with baby and pushchair loaded with portacot etc. Rooms were in different buildings. My room had ants in the main kitchen and also in my room itself - were offered to move but to a different building and I had already put the portacot up. Vanity pack in bathroom was opened and put back in drawer. Shower head left facing out the door so squirted water everywhere when turned on. Other guests left dishes piled in the communal sink and then washed loudly at 10pm, although my baby grizzled all night so I’m sure that would have been annoying too. An absolutely horrible pony stole all the animal feed and staff just agreed yes that pony is mean. Couldn’t feed an alpaca because of this. Booked online at the restaurant and weren’t told it was a set Valentine’s Day menu, set price and food - also wasn’t told on check in either. Restaurant is also at the opposite end of site than accommodation so you need to either return to the highway or drive the wrong way through the grounds. Lastly, piano in reception was terribly out of tune. So - overall it was suitable, but just disappointing as it could have been amazing.

Good hotel with great location

This was a nice, relatively new looking place to stay and only a short drive from the airport. Accommodation was comfortable and clean, but we were mislead by the pictures and descriptions, as we thought that all of the paddock apartments had their own kitchenette. This is actually not the case, as each of the small buildings has 5 separate hotel rooms in them, with 1 communal kitchenette. Their restaurant was good and had a nice view, although it's a bit far from the accommodation area. It's beautiful to walk around the property which has a lot of animals that you can feed, and fruit trees growing everywhere. They even allow you to pick some fruits of the season if available.

Eric and Chrystal’s 3 night stay

We stayed 3 nights and visited Port Arthur and Maria island while we were there. The room was small but very functional. Very clean and modern. The property is amazing with fruit trees and farm animals all about. Nice to walk around. We ate at the restaurant one night which was good with a spectacular view, and quite handy. The property is beautifully landscaped.

Gorgeous estate just outside of Hobart

Gorgeous estate with lots of animals out of the back and even peacocks roaming the grounds! Apricots can be picked in a limited area (super sweet) and cherry picking available(seasonal) for a cost. Modern, good quality amenities. Really great find and worth a stay!

Amazing farm stay meets hotel option. Great facilities and lots of things to do on site from fruit picking to visiting the animals to walking to the water. Very modern facilities which was still central enough to Hobart without the city hustle and bustle.

Loved everything except trying to call their restaurant was a nightmare. Kept going through to reception even after they gave us the direct kitchen number. We didn’t end up eating there but everything else was amazing. Ducks, chickens, emus with babies, rabbits etc Apricots trees and cherry trees available to pick from. Beautiful scenery and very safe. Cameras everywhere and lovely staff.

Nice spot out of town, but not too far away. Property has it's quirks - parking and access are a little awkward, and the room lighting needs greater control and coverage. But as an eco friendly hotel it was nice and comfortable. Animals were not intrusive at all.
