Simple accomodation with ample space to park the boat in the overflow car park. Friendly staff. Enjoyed the pool and jukebox in the bar and our dinner in the restaurant. Good value for money.

Very close to Port Arthur Historic Site. Access to restaurant, eating facilities and bar. Central location to all Tasman Peninsula attractions. Good value for money. Really enjoyed staying here.

I love the fact that it backs onto the historical site and we can use our room key to go through the back entrance to visit the historical site rather than having to drive 2min up the road to go in a different entrance. The property is obviously pretty old but is well cared for, and has better facilities than the average motel with the on site bar and restaurant, free WiFi (though our room had poor signal) etc. The rooms had reverse cycle air-conditioning, electric blankets, and large fuzzy regular blankets to cope with the cold, so you could choose whatever combination you prefer to cope with the cold if you're from a warm climate like we were.

No one was at reception when we arrived, there was no note left, finally found someone in bar area who snapped and slapped keys on counter when I became confused with two room keys (travelling with younger children), overall it needs a decent overhaul so they can stop using the overwhelming pungent l airfresher used to try and mask dated and tired decor.
