This was our second visit to the design house and it didn’t disappoint. Just a few of the many things we love about the house: location is incredible, peaceful and... read more yet close to amazing walks and attractions. The kitchen is a foodie’s dream and has EVERYTHING you could think of to cook plus lots of treats (the wooden worktops are gorgeous). Aesop toiletries. Fluffy robes. Quality bed linens and towels. Sonos speakers throughout. The local family of friendly wallabies and horses. And our absolute favourite - the fire pit, complete with the ingredients for s’mores - the most incredible way to spend an evening gazing at the brightest stars you will see. And to top it off, Rachel and Jet are truly superb hosts and went above and beyond to accomodate a last-minute request. Thank you… we can’t wait for our return visit!

We had a wonderful time in this beautifully designed and furnished home that has sustainability at the forefront, in it's design and inclusions. The location was very private and... read more perched on a hill has beautiful views. The native animals were abundant and the resident horses gorgeous. Rachel and Jet were very generous in supplying gourmet provisions for our consumption.
There was a curated selection of Tasmanian novels in the house... I managed to finish Richard Flanagan's "The Sound of One Hand Clapping"...totally enriching my stay even more.
We love the Tasman Peninsula and the variety of activities that we were able to do including an encounter with a humpback whale on Pennicott Wilderness Journeys.
This stay was a special treat to celebrate our 30th wedding anniversary, well, needless to say... we did it in style.

This design awarded house made me decide on trip to Tasmania.
The stay was perfect!
I love the food they provided. My family had a good time... read more with the cheese plate and chardonnay wine at night!
I also love the amenities, Aesop and facial cream cleanser, Sukin!
Especially, the linen bedding and heated bed sheet made me have deep and warm sleep.
They also allowed us to feed their horses, Oliver and Moonie. It was a memorable experience we will never forget. Thank you for your time showing us!
The hosts, Rachel and Jet, were really kind. I love all of the vibes in this house. Nice people, nice house, nice interiors and amenities, and nice location to go around!
I highly recommend this stay! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
