Quaint bed and breakfast nestled in Tasmania's picture perfect Derwent Valley, a 60 minute drive from Hobart. Overflowing beds of cottage garden favourites intermingled with natives surrounds the cottage. They melt into a generously sprawling vegetable patch, which in turn leads to an orchard and a series of water ponds and developing water gardens.

There is a walking track along the creek and around extensive ponds where the resident platypus are often seen.

Hamlet Downs offers guests complete privacy. Guest bedrooms have ensuite or private bathrooms with their own lounge room, dining room and outside verandah areas. Full cooked or continental breakfast to start your day and a dinner menu featuring home grown produce is also available.

Staying at Hamlet Downs gives you the best of everything, simply relaxing or go fishing for trout, or take an easy stroll around the property.

Perfectly located for day trips to Maydena, South West National Park, Lake Pedder and the Central lakes district and close to the historic towns of Hamilton, Bothwell and New Norfolk.
