A well appointed place to stay with views to nourish the soul and decor to appease the senses. We thoroughly enjoyed our time here and plan to return soon. Thank you to all involved in the design and decorating of such a welcoming place.

We stayed 7 days at this wonderful house with our two boys. We could not have been happier. Breathtaking scenery, everything that opens and shuts, helpful service and a fantastic area to explore. We will be coming back!

We had the most relaxing week at Dragonfly. The décor is amazing! Beautiful furniture and an amazing kitchen. We were welcomed with freshly made bread and a well equipped pantry. The views are to die for and we were happy to just stay in and enjoy the amazing sweeping panoramic views. Our bedroom was so spacious and the most comfortable... More

We spent two days at Dragonfly recently with friends. I had heard a lot about it and had high expectations. I was not disappointed. The house is wonderful with exceptional attention to detail throughout. It manages to be totally comfortable and welcoming while being minimalist and uncluttered. Everything you could want. The view is to die for - across the... More

This place is just beautiful. The short drive from Hobart is stunning and really set the scene for the relaxing few days we just spent at Dragonfly. Having never been to Tasmania before I was looking forward to relaxing, drinking some lovely wine by the fire and taking in the amazing views - and this place made that possible. Seeing... More

We were invited down from Queensland to our favourite island to celebrate a dear friend's 40th birthday at Dragonfly Lodge. What an indulgence! Good food cooked in the well appointed kitchen, great wines, fantastic company and an outstanding home to stay in. After viewing an amazing sunrise over Freycinet Peninsula through the massive glass windows, the clouds and rain came... More

Thank you so much for your positive words. Dragonfly is best experienced as you have done. The couch, the view, the fire, a nice glass of wine and good friends. Thank you for staying with us. More

This was my second stay at Dragonfly Lodge, the first was part of a work trip and I raved about it so much my partner was really keen to come see for himself. It is the perfect place to get away and do nothing or get out and explore. We arrived into Hobart from Sydney on an early flight and... More

This was our second stay at Dragonfly; the first was in May last year. We knew that we had to make it our base again for our beach and cliff walks in the area prior to spending some time in Hobart and visiting the MONA. Again we were welcomed with some wine in the fridge and some food in the... More

We stayed at Dragonfly Lodge in early March with another couple and we all absolutely loved it. We all wished we could have stayed longer than the two nights we booked. A great deal of thought has been put into the fitout of the house. There is an extensive library, board games, DVDs, iPod & docking station, amazing well equipped... More

We booked last minute - 2 hours before checking in. No research and we svored gold. We embraced the solitutude. No tv but plenty of dvds. No mobile reception (apparently Telstra works on iPhone 4). Tracey, the Manager, is a star.
