Guest Reviews

• Judy (10/5): - Excellent location absolutely beautiful Nothing
• Martin (9/5): I highly recommend u - It was quiet, which I appreciated after a long exhausting flight. It is an historic building in an historic town. The host was very accommodating to my late arrival. Turning the shower on, off was tricky as it has two independent taps.
• Keth (10/5): -
• RyLee (9/5): - The laid back comfortable nature of Richmond. If you want nightlife and crowds and shopping go to Hobart. If you want peace and quiet and wildlife viewing and convict history and numerous vineyards and wine cellars stay in Richmond. We weren't in town during the opening hours for the Poo Museum so we missed out on being able to go into the museum and get the straight s#&t on poo! But we have a good reason to come back and we intend to.
• James (10/5): Great spot, friendly host and clean and tidy room. - Location, host and cleanliness Nothing
• John (9/5): very pleasant stay in a cute, well appointed cottage and excellent value in a great location - Esthner Cottage was roomy, well appointed and comfortable. Just a few minutes level walk from the centre of Richmond which made location excellent. Everything we needed was there and host was very pleasant and helpful while being completely unobtrusive. We would have liked the cottage's outdoor furniture on the deck facing the completely private garden as opposed to facing the walk through area but this is a very minor feedback comment and detracted little from a very pleasant stay.
• Vicki (9/5): Clean, quiet tidy place very suitable to unwind, easy walk to shops and coffee - We had our own breakfast but tea, coffee and milk were supplied Washing facilities as we stayed for aa week but host offered the use of her laundry and there was a laundamat in near by Sorell.
• Kylie (10/5): Beautiful few nights to celebrate our 34 anniversary and property and facilities - Very clean and products use where environmentally friendly Beautiful kept gardens, easy walk into town and site seeing Nothing at all perfect for my hubby and I

• Glenn (9/5): Quiet comfortable setting, easy drive to Hobart in historical village. - Located in Richmond a charming, historic Georgian village near Hobart, famous for its well-preserved colonial architecture, convict history, Australia's oldest bridge (Richmond Bridge), and being a hub for the Coal River Valley wine region. Clean, tidy accommodation with basic kitchen and easy free parking. Nothing to mention
• Mahesh (9/5): - I like the host and environment around
• Jane (9/5): A cute little cottage in a great location! - Great location, just off the main street in Richmond. Very quiet location but so close to everything. Clean and tidy with space to spread out without being on top of each other. Outdoor seating spaces in the lovely garden. Large, well appointed bathroom. Simone, the host was very helpful and obliging. Highly recommend!! nothing

• Anne (9/5): Couldn't have been a better home away from home, within walking distance of a 2-day music festival. - Wonderful location near Richmond town centre, but tucked away from the road and traffic, so very quiet and restful. Friendly and gracious hostess, happy to chat and answer and queries. A perfect getaway. Nothing to criticise.
• Caroline (10/5): Enjoyable - A great place to stay. Simone was easy to communicate with. Highly recommended.

• Paula (8/5): A great little cottage with homely amenities and creature comforts, situated in a cute little town. - The location was excellent to quickly walk into town and to cafes and restaurants. The beds had electric blankets and enough warm bedding. The mattress was a little too firm for my liking.
• Corina (10/5): Exceptional - Everything was exceptional
• Tracy (10/5): Would seat again if we pas through - Our host had filled the property with many lovely little touches making it feel welcoming and homely . I lived the French doors which opened onto a sunny patio, plus the other seating areas around the property. Kitchen was really well equipped despite being s very small space. Bed super comfy. Nothing
• Michael (9/5): Chill out - Close to everything. Little touches such as real milk in the fridge, TimTam biscuits, plunger coffee. Nothing. WIFI touchy but heck who needs it in a place like this.
• Lynne (9/5): Fabulous - maybe it's time for a very deep clean - soft furnishings like curtains, pillow protectors - Breakfast N/A. Very comfortable and private. The accommodation smelt a bit stale - like unwashed upholstery/bedding.
• Kathryne (10/5): Fantastic - Was a beautiful place to stay There’s nothing I can complain about

• Christine (10/5): - No negative report at all. Excellent facilities and hostess.
• Stef (2/5): Very poor - Location was good, The cleanliness of the place was poor, unclean crockery. Filthy mouldy hairdryer, bathroom exhaust fan was full of dust, even behind bulbs, could cause fire. Mouldy mat left in shower. Over sink light stuck together with sticky tape. The lounge suites and double mattress were well past use by date and very uncomfortable. Hole in the ceiling! tv was very small , unclear and very bad volume. Very disappointed as we've stayed at the Barracks many times before.
• Jacqueline (9/5): Lovely well maintained cottage. Would stay again - Cute little place suitable for a short stay! There was no oven as stated in the description and the stove was a one burner stove top. Made it hard to cook. Had to use the microwave for everything.

• Luke (8/5): Very good -
• Laurel (8/5): I would stay there again. - The room was a little small but well set out so it worked well. It was very well appointed with all the little things there that we needed, salt, pepper, dishwashing liquid, tea, coffee etc. There was adequate hanging and shelving space for our clothes. It was very clean and the garden area was very neat and well looked after. It was just a few minutes walk to Bridge St where there were lots of lovely shops, cafes and restaurants and of course the famous Richmond Bridge. The internet was very poor.
