We stayed at Masons cottages for two nights on our way around Tassie in August last year. Not knowing what to expect, we were more than pleasant;y surprised on our arrival. Fantastic clean cottages and great heating (this was particulalry important given it was about 3 degrees throughout our stay!) And hosts that could not do enough for us! A... More

With so many services provided these days that fall well below par it was a surprise and delight to find this place, so much so that I felt compelled to give back through some positive feedback. We found the unit spotless, much bigger than expected in the rooms and in an excellent position. The gardens and lawns surrounding were immaculate... More

The units here are large, clean, attractive, comfortable, well appointed, well positioned and best of all are well worth the money - better than the pictures suggest. The owner was also friendly and helpful.

We arrived at the two bedroom cottage in the afternoon, a smiling and friendly Werner welcomed us with freshly picked cherries and good advice for experiences during our stay:) They were genuine and wonderful people, their advice gave us the most memorable nature adventures a family from Norway could ever want! We recommend this place for everyone who is looking... More

We stayed at Mason's Cottages two years ago and it was so good we recently returned for a 3 night stay. (Dec 2011) This time we went to the Port Arthur area to do some of the walks. Thanks to Kathy and her advice we saw some spectacular scenery on the Cape Raoul walk (tough but well worth the effort)... More

The name Masons Cottages is a little misleading. They are more like brick veneer units rather than cottages. However, it is well situated to explore the Port Arthur vicinity and very convenient. Despite being on the Port Arthur highway, the units are quiet and we had a very peaceful sleep. The unit has a spacious living/dining are and modern kitchen... More

We were looking for quiet, accessible, clean and value for money self-catering accomodation; we found the perfect match at Mason's Cottages Taranna for sightseeing around Port Arthur. Kathy and Werner were wonderful hosts, friendly and knowledgeable and always with time for a chat, and with a beautiful dog as well, what more could one ask for? The rooms were well-appointed,...

We booked for four days and only ended up staying for two. Having a gorgeous little place for us to stay at was perfect on the Port Arthur side. The place was clean and tidy and after asking them to clean the shower as it was a bit grimy they were more than happy to clean it. The bedrooms were... More

We stayed for 2 nights in one of the 2 studio apartments. Werner, the manager was friendly & helpful & we loved meeting his friendly labradoodle. The unit was neat, clean & well-equipped & only a 10minute drive from Port Arthur. Just up the road is a chocolate factory & the Tasmanian Devil Park, & the waterfront is just across... More
