- Megan (10/5): -
- Margaret (10/5): Lovely house for relaxing and enjoying the view. - We were looking for a place to rest after some arduous hiking and this house was perfect. Beautiful view, thoughtfully furnished, kitchen and laundry with everything we needed. Nothing.
- Vanessa (10/5): Homemade jamEverything you need, comfy plus an amazing view. - The amenities and comfy beds, but mostly the view, the sunrise and the seclusion A late checkout option would be a nice touch
- Dave (9/5): -
- Chris (10/5): Stunning house perched above the coastline. Great communication with host - Comfortable and spacious with views that go forever Nil

Great host
- Chris (10/5): - View was amazing.
Most comfortable bed I have ever slept on.
Place had very modern features and was spotless Nothing
- Joyce (10/5): Absolutely fabulous - The views were breathtaking. It was staggeringly beautiful.
The house was spacious, tastefully built and furnished featuring multiple Tasmanian timbers throughout.
The spa was a treat!
The property is designed for comfort snd relaxation.
The owner had attended to details so everything needed was there The single lane road with hairpin bends took courage. Fortunately it was a short distance and very few people used it.
Traffic noise from Bass Hwy was continuous despite being a good distance away, on top of a hill overlooking from the road.
- Craig (9/5): What a great place to start our first adventure to Tasmania. - Very comfortable, great location with spectacular views. Easy to get to many points of interest.
Just about everything catered for, done well and sustainably.
- Rene (10/5): -
- Bracken (10/5): - The georgous all-around views, layout of the home 🏡 it was a magnificent stay, well accommodating.
We went there for our anniversary, couldn't have picked a better spot. Wowza.
- Anthony (10/5): An amazing location with awesome views surrounded by forest trees and animals nearby. - Private and open.
A beautiful location with astonishing views, exceptionally clean and tidy.
Security is terrific and close to natural surroundings. N/A
- Melanie (10/5): -
- Lee-anne (10/5): -
- Mark (10/5): Fabulous retreat property and location for a most peaceful and scenic getaway. - Basic but good breakfast ingredients.
A few eggs would be handy. Nothing
- Catherine (10/5): Lovely, peaceful stay in beautiful surroundings. - House was spacious and spotlessly clean. View was exceptional. Breakfast supplies and cooking staples were provided. There was a good supply of crockery, cutlery, cooking utensils etc. Bed linen and towels were of good quality. Communication from hosts was excellent. You need to be cautious on the road up to the property which is very narrow and winding. However, it isn’t very long and only has traffic from nearby neighbours. We only saw one other car on the road during our stay and fortunately, it was at a section of the road where two vehicles could pass each other. The single bed was a bit firm.
- Christine (10/5): Beautiful, calming, peaceful. - Everything! The views are stunning, the spa bath a wonderful treat, beds are super comfortable. A family friendly environment with x2 bathrooms, laundry and well appointed in every aspect.
I found myself relaxing and winding down, it really is a retreat from the hustle and bustle of life.
The gas ran out and the host promptly came and organised it for us, no problem.
We also enjoyed the continental breakfast provided.
We would love to return for respite (we have children with special needs) even though we live nearby.
We needed urgent accommodation due to a house insurance claim, which was very stressful, so the serene outlook and environment was balm to the soul We liked everything

- Gregory (9/5): Peaceful relaxing spacious comfortable - Spacious, well appointed, great view, thoughtful touches. The construction of the building was done with pride showcasing local woods.

- Colin (9/5): Superb - Everything. We have stayed here before & the accommodation & surroundings are spectacular. The first thing you notice when opening the door is that magnificent views you see from the large windows of Bass Strait & surroundings. Then on top of that you get to see the Eagles flying around as they catch the thermals. We definitely will be back.
- Elizabeth (10/5): Exceptional -
- Aubrey (9/5): Superb -
- Rebecca (10/5): Exceptional -
- Jeni (10/5): Great location, fabulous view, very comfortable. - The view is spectacular. Very well stocked with everything you could possibly need. Very comfortable. The spa with a view was great. Thoroughly enjoyed our three night stay. I didn’t like that our stay came to an end!

- Timothy (10/5): Exceptional - How clean and tidy the place was. The view was incredible especially watching the sun come up. I didn't like that I only booked for the one night 😁
- Trevor (10/5): An amazingly private, luxurious and scenic - We stayed at Black Rock Retreat on the last night of our Tasmania holiday and what an awesome place to finish our trip. The property and location is stunning, set high up on the hill overlooking Sulphur Creek and Bass Straight with views from every room a covered deck with views to die for and a spa room that opens out onto the deck and with views as well. The property is very tastefully decorated and furnished with local artwork and furniture items and the Tasmainian timber furnishing identified by species for interest. Breakfast supplies and a nice bottle of Tasmainian wine were supplied. An amazing luxury yet practical and private location for a short or longer stay.
- Michael (10/5): Exceptional -
- Elkin (9/5): Superb - Well there isn't anything much negative about this accommodation...furniture..paintings ...divine bed...kitchen facilities...all exceptional..& what a view & how quiet & peaceful this property is...🙂 .

- Mitchell (10/5): Exceptional -
- Amy (10/5): Wonderful retreat - Wonderful location and property, stunning views and a lovely hostess. All the amenities we needed for a relaxing retreat in a quiet location. We look forward to coming back!
- Megan (10/5): Spectacular once you arrived - The property is spectacular although a little daunting driving up the street to the house. Th drive to the property, I'm scared of heights
- Diane (9/5): Girls catch up - Loved the whole house, the beds were super comfy, the showers were to die for and the selection of cereals, lactose free milk, toast & condiments was just perfect and the complimentary bottle of wine was a bonus. Unfortunately our stay was short and never had time to try out the spa - but there is always next time. Only one thing in that the signage for Black Rock retreat was pretty much hidden by overgrown vegetation. We almost drove straight past the entry. Our taxi did drive straight past.
- Carole (10/5): Beautiful view and everything you could want - Beautiful view and everything you could ask for. We’d come back to Tas just to stay here Nothing - magnificent
- Marti (10/5): Very comfortable, modern home - This home is situated at the top of a hill, with gorgeous views of surrounding farmland and the ocean in the distance. The view side of the house is floor to ceiling windows, and there is a deck with table and chairs.. The whole house is updated and modern and has everything you could need in the well-equipped kitchen. Possibly because it is so dark up there, the stargazing is spectacular! And the home is full of gorgeous wood --floors, furniture, counters-- much of which looks to be hand made. Some of the items even have tags telling what kind of wood it is. I can't think of anything I didn't like.

- Jodi (9/5): Exceptional property, Luxury at a great price - Exceptional property ,fantastic view everything you need, a quiet and relaxing environment and the facilities are perfect. Great communication from our host. The road going up is very narrow going around and up the hill and a little daunting when we first drove up but once you drive a few times you get to know the places you can work out where you can pull off. But the property is so exceptional that the road is worth the climb. The host also supplies alot more essentials than others I've visited to compensate for this.
