Loved the log fire. The kitchen is spacious, generous breakfast hamper. Wish I had more time for the spa. Spotlessly clean. Its so close to Hobart too. This is the best value accomodation we had this trip. More

A great little cottage right on the river, with all the little luxuries we look for at the end of a day wandering around the Huon Valley. The double spa with plenty of hot water was a great hit, and there’s nothing quite like lying in bed listening to all the river sounds. Breakfast hamper much appreciated. Excellent accommodation, perfect... More

What a beautiful cottage right next to the tranquill Crabtree river. We only stayed one night but it was so relaxing and we will definately stay again. The cottage had eveything you could possibly need and was very cosy. The breakfast provisions were great and all in all it was just a really relaxing and enjoyable stay. More

The cottage was quiet, comfortable and relaxing, breakfast on the sunny verandah overlooking the brook and garden was a great way to begin a day in the Huon Valley. Perfect place for one person or a couple to spend some time in this area. Decor is attractive and the cottage was well-equipped and very clean. More

Beautiful cottage on Crabtree River. We thought the accommodation was great, with good breakfast provisions. Close to Huon Valley for restaurants - had dinner in Franklin. Loved the peaceful location, and privacy. More

We stayed only one night at the Crabtree River Cottages but we'll definitely stay there again. Beautiful and tastefully decorated, set on a peaceful riverbank, the well-appointed cottage offered charming and very clean accommodation, a comfy bed and a delicious breakfast, along with a well-maintained garden! A relaxing Spa to enjoy, we highly recommend for couples looking for an enjoyable... More

The cottages are in a beautiful location and on first sight we just loved it, however it didn't take long for the negatives to detract from our initial impressions. Firstly, we stayed in Emily and the afternoons and early evening were so uncomfortably hot it was almost unbearable. There had been a token sun mesh type blind installed on one... More

It is interesting that over 90% of guests love our accommodation and these guests have found so many negatives. Many unfounded. This is very disappointing to us. The temperature the days they stayed, was 24 degrees, much cooler than Brisbane where they came from. We therefore could understand why they lit the built in slow combustion heater the afternoon they... More

We stayed in the Emily Cottage and were very impressed by the understated but classy decor, which has a real cosy and comforting feel to it. Location was gorgeous with babbling brook + ducks, just in front of the cottage. Fire was all set ready to light, and the heater was on as well, awaiting our arrival. Breakfast provisions were...

My husband & myself arrived at the Cottages and were thrilled to find them exactly as they appeared on their website. The countryside was as beautiful as pictured, and serene. Amazingly the location is truly only 20 minutes from Hobart and is conveniently central to many attractions. The cottages are gorgeous, outfitted with natural timber, soft carpet & french doors...

We stayed in Emily cottage for two nights and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Gary and Anna were perfect hosts and the cottage was wonderful with its ready to light log fire, large spa bathroom and comfortable bed. The supplied breakfast ingredients were also good, home made bread and locally produced apple juice rated very highly. Friends stayed in Eliza cottage and... More
