Thanks so much for making our stay in Sandy Bay so comfortable! When I couldn't get my app working on my phone, you replied to my text quickly so there were no worries about how to access the property. The offroad parking was ideal and being able to walk down the street get the groceries for our meals was very pleasant - we loved looking at the big poodle in the window a few houses down! Everything we needed was provided.We hope to come back sometime.RegardsAdele

Lois was most helping and gave us good advice on some local scienic spots and amenities. The house was very comfortable and had everything we needed. The location was great 5 mins drive to everything downtown. All in all when we come to Hobart again it will be our choice.

The location is fantastic — very close to Woolworths and situated in a great suburb with plenty of decent coffee options nearby. The cottage itself was very clean, cozy, and well maintained, making it a comfortable place to relax. The owner was very friendly and helpful, and provided very clear instructions ahead of our arrival, which made everything smooth and easy. Highly recommended, and we would happily stay here again.
