"Rathmore was everything we had hoped for a tranquil weekend escape. We stayed in the Shearer’s Quarters, separate from the main homestead and very private, with delicious meals delivered by Cally - the lamb ragu was a favourite, highly recommended. Both hosts, Richard and Cally, encouraged us to wander the historic property, which felt a little like stepping back in time to a more peaceful era. We even saw one of the dam’s resident platypus! Cally’s local suggestions enhanced our day trip to Mount Field NP and the Gordon Dam. I only wish we could have stayed longer to take better advantage of the many hidden treasures along the route. Our weekend was topped off by an impromptu tour of Rathmore House, a true beauty of a homestead and, despite the age, very much alive. Cally and Richard clearly love their home and sharing that joy with visitors."

"Awesome stay, great hosts"

"What a quirky little motel.. comfortable beds.. clean.. tricky parking but close to everything.. would stay again"

"A beautiful spot close to Mount Field and a worthwhile walk to Marriott falls."

"This property was ideal and had everything we wanted. Location: 30 klms from Hobart in a quiet cul-de-sac near a major road. Amenities included a large ground floor bedroom, large dining area, well appointed kitchen and even a garden that provided fruit and vegetables. We picked peaches and apples and potatoes."

"This is a great place to stay. So much history. The library is amazing. The cottage was built in the mid 1800’s. So it’s vey old. But certainly worth staying. Even electric blankets on the beds. "

"Lovely peaceful stay listening g to the bubbling river. Just what we needed"

"We absolutely loved our stay here! The view, the peacefulness, the accommodation—everything was perfect. The kids enjoyed all the toys and books, and we appreciated the welcome basket!"

"Lovely heritage listed and beautifully restored Georgian manor, with well appointed and very comfortable rooms. Great location on the River Derwent, within walking distance to the town centre."
