Fantastic place to stay, will be returning. Cozy, quiet, central to restaurants.5/5 by Steven, 18/03/2014
The house is a very gracious high Victorianmansion and our room was in keeping. The area has become very convenient for travellers, with multiple cuisines as well as all the other requirements available in the cosmopolitan shopping strip just down Elizabeth Street. And the owners are most welcoming and obliging. We were glad to have missed out on Sandy Bay!4/5 by Paul, 17/03/2014
A good house to stay in for a few days ( or longer) with privacy, a comfy bed, all facilities you might need ( and we like to cook) and hosts who are there without being in your face but friendly at the same time. Nothing was too much trouble. A good walk into Hobart and we will do that next time but catch the bus back. Close enough to coffee shops and indeed all you might need in North Hobart. We will return.5/5 by Peter and Susan, 17/03/2014

The property was comfortable, well equipped and ideal for a couple wanting to be self sufficient. The host was helpful but not over-bearing, friendly but not gushy, contacted us prior to the stay (by e-mail) and greeted us on arrival.5/5 by Olive and Bill, TAS 01/11/2011

Werndee was well located and a peaceful haven. A beautifully presented heritage home and we were delighted to have a personal tour. We had both cottages booked for our family and everyone had all the comforts of home plus little thoughtful touches made it extra special. Robyn and Jan are very warm and generous hosts. We are looking forward to visiting again.5/5 by Colleen, QLD 01/09/2011
