Degraves St Old Mill

Absolutely gorgeous place to stay with a groovy arty vibe. The location right next to the rivulet was stunning. Walking through the gate into the private courtyard was magical. Warm, homely and cozy. Bob is a delight to communicate with and I would absolutely , highly recommend his beautiful  creative home for anyone wanting to a unique stay Hobart.

Unique stay

We had a truly amazing stay. The historic property was quaint & had an old charm to it but had all the modern amenities needed to make us feel right at home and ven on  a colder night. The place was spotless, kitchen well equipped. bathroom roomy and updated, cozy bedroom and not to mention the constant, calming sound of the flowing rivulet right beneath the property. A fantastic must stay!

Fantastic must stay

We’ve stayed in some beautiful Airbnbs in Tasmania over the years, but I would happily say this is one of the best. It’s peaceful, relaxing and Bob and Sarah make you feel at home. You can tell when hosts care and these hosts certainly do. Having the rivulet in the back yard is just magic and we were so lucky to see a platypus. We didn’t want to leave - if we could have cancelled our next accommodation and stayed longer, we would have.

The best BnB

Bob and Sarah’s place is absolutely breathtaking, we felt so at home and it was amazing listening to the rivulet sounds at night. Everything we needed was there and the main attractions were a quick 10 minute drive away. Bob and Sarah were super helpful and responsive and made the whole experience a breeze. I’d love to stay again next time I’m in Hobart and I’d 100% recommend staying there to others

Breathtaking

A truly remarkable BnB. Easily the best in Hobart. Beautiful location,surroundings and design- felt right at home. Will definitely be returning in the future
