Thoughtfully appointed with everything we could’ve wished for and more. Beautiful, peaceful place - bird life, wildlife and starry skies. A perfect stay, in a truly lovely place. Croissants and farm eggs were a generous touch! We loved it there.

Amazingly tranquil retreat

As advertised, the house is immaculate and thoughtfully stocked with helpful pantry items. The bedrooms were comfortable and our group enjoyed both movies on the couch and watching nature from the back deck. Don't let the windy roads scare you off - the property is well worth the drive in and was a perfect base for our adventuring trip.

Cosy, private, bush retreat

Due to plans changing at the last minute we required some accommodation and we're so glad we found this gorgeous place. It was delightfully quiet, warm, and well-stocked with essentials - including fresh farm eggs, berry jam, and croissants! Only a short 20 minute drive from Huonville where we had a great pub meal, and then around 30 minutes back to Hobart the other way. Very close to some great hikes as well!

Great spot in the bush

Was a great place for us to stay with our adult family and their children. Toys were a big win as were the pademelons at the door each day. Saw 4 quoll on the road which was exciting as have never seen quoll in the wild before. The children were also ver excited with the pond tadpoles and frogs. Only negative was the 11km winding dirt road we had to traverse to get to Cygnet which we weren’t expecting! Overall a great stay.

Very peaceful stay

We were visiting family who live 15 minutes from the property. It was such a great space to come back to at the end of a busy day. Plenty of room for the 4 of us and everything we could need was there (washer/dryer/detergent/staples in the kitchen etc). It was also lovely being able to sit and watch the pademelons that come to visit (one even came right up to the back door!). The property is a bit of a drive from local towns etc. but it was worth the trip and we’d definitely stay again. Thanks for all the little touches!

A Great House in Pelverata

This is a wonderful family house, very spacious and overlooking the bush on a a few acres of land. The bedrooms are comfortable, there are two bathrooms and the kitchen is very modern, very well equipped and enough space for more than one person to organize a meal. There is a large, relaxing deck overlooking the garden/bush area. It’s very private and peaceful. A very modern laundry with excellent facilities and a clothes line outside was very useful. The hostess was very nice, helpful and nothing was too much trouble. All in all a very memorable experience especially for Christmas.

Peace and quiet

Lovely quiet property; the only other souls we saw whilst here were birds and wallabies. Has all the facilities you need for a relaxing stay in plus the location is convenient to Hobart and southeast TAS if you feel like venturing out. The only possible improvement would be bigger towels, but there were plenty of extras available so this was a very minor issue.

Awesome country getaway

For anyone looking to get out of town and into the country, this is an awesome place. Modern, clean, quiet place with everything you need. The property has been well thought out and is very comfortable even for a longer stay. Kingston and Huonville is around 20 minutes away so close enough to stock up on supplies. The property manager is awesome to deal with answering any questions we had in no time at all and was extremely helpful. Thanks Marion. We wouldn’t hesitate to visit this property again in the future.
