We enjoyed the quietness at our accomodation and loved we could catch up on our washing and get our clothes dried in our room after a number of days being on the road. Everything was clean, attractive and thought of by the owner. It was just down the road from the hotel that provided a lovely meal and the wooden sculpture exhibition “The Wall” that was absolutely amazing. Don’t miss it.

Modest exterior hides impeccably clean, well provisioned and comfortable accommodation. The small verandah looks on to bush which comes alive after dusk with all sorts of interesting noises. The torch provided was very useful to see some very cute Glider faces in the spot light.

It was average. The bed was pretty uncomfortable. There was no complementary items, all had to be paid for. My partner and I had stocked up prior to arrival at the Ouse IGA so we were fine but we found it pretty steep. The actual room was clean and okay. The lack of wifi was surprising. We only stayed one night. The owner seemed put off by us trying to just check in.

This was by far our worst stay in Tasmania. Mainly based on the unwelcoming attitude of the receptionist. Check in was 3pm .... 1 hour later than any other check in we had in Tasmania. We turned up at 2.50pm. The receptionist made us wait until 3pm on the dot before she would look at any paperwork ( along with a NZ couple who were also denied early check in). When she did open her door at 3pm she was very unwelcoming ... totally the opposite of all of our other experiences in Tasmania. In the room it stipulated that if you used any dishes or cutlery, you would be expected to wash them, dry them and put them away, otherwise you would be charged an additional tariff. The stay at this premises at Derwent Bridge left a sour taste in our mouth ... and if doing the trip again, i would have by passed this location and spent the extra day in either Cradle Mountain or Hobart.

The accommodation was basic but clean and comfortable. Certainly no personal touches. Abrupt notices about her precious cereal a bit insulting. The pub was great. Meal was excellent.

Loved the cabin however the experience was ruined by a very surly and rude lady on reception. Personally we felt she is not suited to being the face of the business, she was complaining that we were 25 minutes early to check in time and commented people should read the paperwork properly. All other accommodation places in Tassie were brilliant. Please put someone else in charge of looking after guests here.

Great stay, overpriced for our needs. Town full
Derwent Bridge was full an we selected the last available property that met our needs. Great property but overpriced easily the most expensive night stay of any in our 3 weeks in Tassie. Room would have been great for a family and the facilities were excellent. Way beyond our needs at the price. Still we found a good place to sleep for the night.

We didn't even get a 'hello' upon arrival. A piece of paper and pen was placed in front of us while the host walked past off to turn off the intercom we used as the office was vacant. We were told that you have to "turn it off like a phone" - we didn't know as there were no instructions. When we left the office we hadn't been given the wifi password and it wasn't in the room. When we went back to get it there was still no hello, just a "close the door" and a handwritten slip of paper was given to us - no apology. We needn't have bothered as the wifi was intermittent anyway. A shame the customer service was poor as the room was nice.

Didn't get to stay as the rude lady Louise informed us that there was no vacancy for us after we booked it online and had confirmation. She was not onsite and spoke to us via telephone at reception door. Wotif showed two rooms available at time of our booking. Would not stay there in the future......

Cabin was clean and tidy. Owner told us we weren't allowed to use the wood fire in the house and this was one of the reasons I booked here so I could use a wood fire to hear up the cabin with cool nights. When I booked I paid for a queen and double bed, I got a queen and two singles 😡 My friends and myself are in our 50s and 60s and were having a laugh and drink and we're told to quite down at 8pm Tassie time, still broad daylight 🤔 Nope will never go back to that cabin

Derwent Bridge is not exactly scenic but is a handy gateway to Queenstown and Strahan we were there to collect our daughter and family after they completed walking the overland track from Cradle Mountain to Lake St Clair The cabins were more than adequate in groups of four or five

Perfectly situated near Lake St Clair, the studio was a perfect hub for us as we explored the area. We got a great recommendation for the local pub just down the street, and really enjoyed our three nights here. Would highly recommend.
