What a little gem to stay at. Well appointed, games, books and DVDS. Clean, quiet and easy off street parking. Comfy bed and even Tim Tams. Im more a white Tim Tam person, but now I'm being picky. Its close to the main st of Richmond and an easy drive to Hobart. Communication was easy and clear. Really enjoyed our stay.

Richmond Barracks was a delightful place to stay. The Cellar was comfortable and well equipped with everything we needed for a stay. It was within easy walking distance of the Main Street and the historic walk around the town was lovely. It was also excellent value for money, I would recommend it highly.

We really enjoyed our stay both at the property and in Richmond. The Richmond Barracks are just a short walk from the mail street so far away enough to be quiet but near enough to be in the middle of things. The description of the property is accurate and Simone was on hand throughout our stay to help with anything we needed and just to be friendly. It is only a short walk to the Richmond Arms which was good for meals. If we return to Richmond we would definitely stay here again

Was great. The only thing was there needs to be a small light above the sink, and 1 light in the lounge area didnot work. Other than that was great. Will stay there again.

Almost a perfect weekend.

Clean, comfortable, handy. Proprietor needs to learn how to speak to people if accidents happen, which did during our stay. We did notify the proprietor, and had no qualms about paying toward the damage, but we still felt like we were spoken to like people trying to weasel out of our responsibility. Would have been return customers, but probably not now.

Richmond, Tas

Loved the history. Stayed 3 nights which gave us plenty of touring time around central Tas, return mid - late afternoon and time to walk around Richmond. Great pub for dinner. All the shops were interesting and the buildings are architecturally and historically interesting. The bridge is a magnificent example of convict construction. Walk underneath it. It's very interesting.
