Hamlet Downs Country Accommodation

Our family of four stayed at Hamlet Downs for two nights. Steve and Trish are exceptional hosts and the meals they provide using ingredients sourced from their farm are worth a stay alone. The bangers and mash were a highlight. Literally the best I have ever had. Our accommodation was spacious and comfortable. The walks through nearby conservation areas are awe inspiring and should not be missed. I can’t recommend Hamlet Downs highly enough.

Hamlet Downs suites are comfortable and spacious with a cosy ambience perfectly suited to the property’s stunning rural location. Varying accomodation options are available with amazing gourmet meals offered onsite, and the owner/operators are lovely.

Steve and Trish are great hosts, friendly and helpful. Plus, gourmet meals delivered to your suite. Loved the Tasmanian seafood chowder. Hamlet Downs is in a great location. Easy access to Mt Field, Derwent Bridge and Hobart. Trish and Steve were extra helpful when we left some belongings behind. They helped locate them and went above and beyond to get them back to us, keeping us up to date. Highly recommend.

Out in the country, nice a quiet and a beautiful setting. Only about 10 minutes down to Mt Field National Park, and another 10 or so to Maydena. Comfortable accomodation and bed. Great breakfast, if you are a breakfast person. They also do dinners, however we being pretty indecisive decided to do other options as we did not know how our day was going to conclude. Peaceful, with a resident crow, that tells you when he (or she) is wanting breakfast also. Waiting every morning in hope. Watch your coffee and biscuits as well, as he also loves those and will quite happily feed from your hand. Definitely worth a stay and somewhere we will most likley go back to when we are in that area again.

We stayed in the big house with friends. It was basically like being in the park, without the crowds. We couldn't see another house from this house, as there is lots of acreage. There are playtpuses in the ponds, and lots of bird life. The house is rustic, but comfortable. The owner is friendly and very accomodating. Excellent overall.

Our recent stay at Hamlet Downs was in the Country Hideaway and we loved it! The location close to Mt Field National Park was perfect for us to explore and do the walks. The farm stay experience was just how we hoped it would be with Trish and Steve being the perfect hosts. Steve showed us around the farm, and we got to meet quite a few of the menagerie plus learn about farming in Tassie. Trish is a great chef, and we enjoyed her tasty, hand delivered meals for dinner and a breakfast to keep us going all day when we headed off. The farmhouse is decorated really nicely and everything you need is there. We will stay again if we have another opportunity to visit beautiful Tasmania!
