Family get-away
The owner kept us updated before our stay and entry to property was easy. Upon arrival we were stunned by the magnificent views. The house had all we required for our stay and was very suitable for our family group. 2 Adults and baby downstairs and us grandparents upstairs. The house was well designed for sectioning off areas for a young infant. Central location to all shopping needs and tourist activities. Lovely to sit and relax, absorbing the night setting in Hobart, on the balconies after a day out. Thank you Karen for a wonderful stay.
