The house was cozy and comfortable with a well working heater. Check-in was straightforward and welcoming.The house is conveniently positioned not too far from shops and a good walk to Kingston Beach for some exercise and coffee. The gardens around the cottage are pretty and provide a couple of sitting spots for relaxing and reading a book.I look forward to my next trip to Blackmans Bay.

Absolutely delightful

A beautiful welcome of delicious bread, with butter and homemade jam. Handmade soap in the shower was a lovely touch. The 'Alice's' were gorgeous. Judith and Chris are wonderful hosts.

Leanne, it was such a pleasure having you to stay and the lovely gift of YOUR beautiful soaps was so generous and much appreciated! We like to give our guests a really homely welcome and everyone seems to love the homemade bread and jam. The "Alices" for those who are wondering, are our four chickens who provide the eggs guests are given. Guests are welcome to come down, visit them and save their food scraps for them. Leanne, the Alices asked me to say they LOVED the pumpkin - thank you! To find out why they are called "The Alices" you'll need to come and stay at 19 Blue as Leanne has just done!

Little home away from home!

We loved our stay at 19 Blue! Such hospitable thoughtful hosts and there wasn't one thing to fault. Loved the fresh homemade bread and jam, and the fresh eggs and bacon. The location was also perfect to explore the Hobart surrounding areas during our first few days in Tassie. Highly recommended! Thanks Judith and Chris!

What a Gem!

Spent 10 days at 16 Blue and loved every minute of it. Cute, compact little cottage, very private with a beautiful garden. 10 out of 10 for our hosts, Judith and Chris, in providing the personal touches that make a property special. It was a lovely haven to return home to after a day of exploring. Blackmans Bay Beach is beautiful, as is the next bay across, Boronia Beach, both within easy walking distance. Would throughly recommend.

Home away from Home

What a wonderful stay we had at 19 Blue! The cottage was beautifully appointed, so very comfortable, and we appreciated the thoughtfulness that had gone into the needs of the traveller. The generous provision of breakfast items was most welcome. We especially loved the peaceful setting, the trees and cottage garden, the bird life to observe, and of course, the chooks! The owners, Judith and Chris, were very welcoming, considerate and helpful. We look forward to another stay at 19 Blue, our home away from home! Thank you for a memorable 5 days at 19 Blue.

A wonderful stay!

We recently gave ourselves a short break from grandparent activities and had a most wonderful stay at 19 Blue. The location suited us perfectly: a short zippy trip into Hobart, and easy access to Bruny Island, Cygnet and southern bays and forests. In addition 19 Blue is gorgeous; lovely garden with cornflowers and Cecil Brunner roses together with home bottled fruit and organic broad beans to pick. Loved the chooks too, didn't have to waste any food scraps. The cottage is really comfortable and set up with such care and consideration. Hosts Judith and Chris are friendly, caring and absolutely considerate. We'd love to return.

Excellent propery

I had a wonderful stay at 19Blue. The owners, Judith and Chris, are very welcoming, it is peaceful and very comfortable with lots of home-baked extras all put out for you. It feels like a home from home with everything you could want. Now that I've stayed once I wouldn't consider staying anywhere else. I loved it!

Excellent property

I loved this property the moment I walked into it. So quiet, comfortable and with many home-baked goodies to see you through the first three days. All the amenities are first class and there's nothing you could want for - this is just a perfect home from home. I wouldn't consider staying anywhere else now that I've sampled the delights of 19Blue. I'll be back!
