Picturesque Architectural Farm Stay A+++

This property is absolutely beautiful. The architecturally designed pods and restaurant/cafe is top class, set in a very picturesque part of Tasmania with views of Mt Wellington. I loved the manicured gardens and the friendly farm animals made my trip all the more enjoyable. Highly recommended!

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.

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.

Promotional material needs to be altered. Farm stay really doesn't seem appropriate. Also improved parking should be a priority. Extreme praise for receceptionist Rachel and cleaner Polly.

The property was very dark at night, insufficient lighting around. Finding the restaurant entry was very difficult and we felt unsafe. The menu in our room was different to what was in the Restaurant …more limited. The cocktails ordered weren’t in point for flavour.

The farm stay is a very cool property and we should have loved everything about it-but we didn’t. Check in is confusing and dropping bags at the room is problematic on a one way road with no where to pull over. Once we got to the room it was beautiful and looked out over the farm-and the bay-breathtaking. We enjoyed a beautiful walk before dinner-the food was delicious. However the service, especially for cocktails was slow and inexperienced. The cocktail list was extensive-but they didn’t even have basic ingredients or knowledge on making them! No citrus, cherries or sugar cubes!! I believe it is a new property and it hasn’t really taken off yet-the location near the Hobart airport is a huge plus, so I hope things improve.
