Just 7km south of the picturesque setting of Dover, the original cottage was built in 1915 by Herbert Riseley and has been tastefully renovated by the present owners to create an ambience sympathetic to the original, further enhanced by an eclectic collection of period furniture and furnishings. In addition our very own Private Forest Reserve provides guests the opportunity to fully explore the surrounding countryside and waterways. Hire facilities for fishing boats, sea kayaks, canoes, mountain bikes exist nearby, as are numerous bushwalking options from which to further explore the Far South's diverse and unique natural landscapes.

Accommodation includes guest lounge featuring antique grand piano and extensive CD collection, breakfast room with views over attractive cottage gardens, wood fires, electric blankets, generous breakfast offering 'home-made'

One of our superior ensuite rooms comes with its own wood heater and large bath (just ask for when you book).

Always well received, optional delicious home cooked evening meals are a speciality, adding an intimate 'romantic' dimension to any holiday experience. These can be negotiated directly with your hosts up to 24 hours prior to your arrival. BBQ available. Children and pets welcome.

With the convenient base that Riseley Cottage provides, the opportunity to treat yourself to some well earned R&R awaits. Your hosts will happily provide to your basic needs - allowing you to unwind and rejuvenate in friendly 'relaxed' surroundings. As a recent guest suggests... "A home away from home, we arrived as guests and departed as friends." Sentiments we hope reflected through our People's Choice Awards (Aust. B&B Book - Tas) over recent years.
