I thoroughly enjoyed my 10 day stay in this lovely cottage that is so well appointed in terms of Sandy Bay shopping precinct, Salamanca markets and the city. I walked everywhere. The Cottage was beautiful and the electric blankets were a bonus. Absolutely recommend 6 Flinders Lane for a quiet relaxing comfortable stay in Hobart.

The property being withing walking distance to supermarkets, shops, cafes and bus stops made it absolutely perfect for our needs. The property itself was clean and comfortable and we would not hesitate to stay again. In fact, I tried to book again for a couple of weeks later but it wasn't available. The only slight disappointment was the slow internet and the fact that even though there was a Smart TV we weren't able to connect to any of our own streaming channels.

Beautiful home very clean and fresh walking distance to Salamanca place good food choices and coffee shops along with coles and Woolies. Comfortable beds and cosy lounge. Owner easy to connect to and helpful. Only drawback was parking none on site and have to park at least a block away as no parking in street l. Also need to pay close attention to hours able to park. Would recommend this place every time .

Lovely stay. Property was immaculate, everything we needed for a short weekend away. Fantastic location with a short walk to everything we needed.

Pleasant stay

A pleasant and comfortable cottage with all necessary amenities. The steps up to the front door could be difficult for anyone with limited mobility, especially with heavy baggage. Though no on-site parking street parking nearby was ok.

Thanks for a great stay!

This cosy house has all you need, including electric blankets on the beds (much appreciated during Hobart's winter!) and a comfortable lounge room. There's a modern bathroom with an excellent shower, and there's a second toilet in the laundry out the back. It's about a 5-minute walk to Sandy Bay's shops and restaurants. The host is helpful and prompt and I'm already looking forward to my next stay.

Convenient and pleasant

The house is close to the Sandy Bay shops and restaurants and many of Hobart's iconic places. It has everything you need. For us, the bed was a little too firm but our son found the bed in the second bedroom very comfortable, so a matter of personal taste. The host was very accommodating.

Great stay, but room for improvement

Great cottage in a great location with lots of character. From first impressions the cleaning unfortunately was a bit of a let down. My partner who is a cleaner noticed that many things were missed in the living areas, including fat on the backsplash, mold in bathroom, moldy coffee in the jar, crumbs in the kitchen draws, dirty microwave and needed a decent vacuum. In our opinion the property needs a proper bond clean to bring this property up to a holiday home standard. There is so much potential to make this an even better holiday property if more attention to detail was taken with the cleaning as we would definitely stay again if the standard of cleaning was improved. Overall there are many positives about staying here including its close proximity to the city, restaurants, cafes and supermarkets. We really liked the comfy couches and the great little fireplace (Unfortunately no kindling and firewood is supplied). The heat pump works well too and if you like to cook this property has a modern fully serviced kitchen.

Comfy quiet cottage in great location

The house was all we expected for our stay in Hobart for the Wooden Boat Festival. Quiet neighborhood, beautifully clean, light and well appointed and an easy walk to Battery Point and Constitution Dock. The bus is two minutes walk if you want to catch public transport to the city.
