We arrived to a very nice heated house which was spotless and very welcoming.
Once unpack the owner , Terry , arrived to great us and make sure very thing was ok. Very friendly and helpful owner.
The house has beach front views and is very roomy with everything we needed for our 4 night stay.
It is a 5 minute walk to the shops which has an IGA , bakery, coffeehouse, information shop ,several restaurants and a pub.
We had a meal at the pub , great atmosphere and food.
Penguin is a great location for day trips to Stanley and the north west part of Tasmania.
It is a 30 minute drive to Devonport to catch the Spirit of Tasmania.
The owner ,Terry , made our last 4 days in Tasmania perfect with not only his charming house but also his friendly nature.
Will be coming back to stay at “ sunrise at penguin “ again
Thank you Terry
A lovely couple of days in a beautiful home. Julie is a great host - do yourself a favour when travelling Tassies north west coast and stay at Braddon House - walk to coffee and the Main Street where everything is at your door. Thank you Julie and Graham
My family had a wonderful stay in Burnie. The house was big enough to cater for us all, beds were very comfortable, and we had everything we needed to cook our own meals. Hosts were very welcoming and the gifts that were left for us were a very nice touch. Would definitely stay there again.
We loved our stay at Madsen Retreat and in Penguin
