Forth River Cottage - Luxury Bed and Breakfast by the River

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."

"Nice view from the balcony"

Hawley House

"Sophie is a great host, as are her lovely doggies. The grounds are beautiful so there is plenty to see and do on the property and locally. The house is always very clean and tidy. Gorgeous rooms and location, yummy food. We come back every year!"

Silver Ridge Retreat

"My wife and I had a fantastic time at Silver Ridge Retreat. It was a great base for attractions across North West Tasmania, including Cradle Mountain. There was also lots to do on the property, including getting up close to the resident platypus, various rainforest walks and an abandoned silver mine. The cabins were very comfortable and nothing was too much trouble for the hosts."

Manna Hill Farm

"Stunning location, superb hospitality and attention to detail, friendly hosts, thank you. Positioned as a great base for Cradle Mountain visits, close to the nice town of Sheffield. And close to Launceston."
