WOW! What a wonderful hideaway in the forest surrounded by amazing waterways and spectacular views. We had a fabulous 5 night stay and didn’t want to leave. The cosy fire and huge kitchen had everything we needed and more. We loved all the walks especially the one to Seal Rocks, spotting a few Pademelons along the way and heaps at night right outside. Went out to the Dover yacht club one night and when we came back we saw a wombat right near the house! Even saw an echidna crossing the road! Cant wait to return!

I stayed at The Boathouse. Everything was perfect, the location, the accommodation,the deck spa and I had a blissful and relaxing time. There were private hiking trails that were just magnificent. There atrention to detail and little thoughtful touches were everywhere. ||I highly recommend this place as a retreat, romantic or solo to rest, recover and be one with beautiful nature.

We decided we wanted peace and quiet on our honeymoon and we got it at the Cape House. We spent 5 nights here. The property is very private and well maintained. We had mixed weather but that was no issue, for a property like this. The spa outside was amazing. The fireplace was awesome. The location is just outside Dover, so you have access to basic shops and restaurants, and it's a great spot to access the Southern most part of Australia. We were lucky to see the Southern lights on our last night. The bush walks around the property were a nice touch. The only criticism is that the lock on the front door was fiddly and there was a very friendly possum who could be considered a bit scary.

We recently stayed at the BoatHouse for our Honeymoon and it was perfect! On entering the house from the generous deck we found it beautifully furnished, a fully equipped kitchen, creative lighting, excellent air conditioning, an incredibly (huge and) comfortable bed, plenty of hanging and shelf space for clothes, luxurious heated floors in the bathroom, gorgeous views of the bush and bay, and delicious complimentary wine, choccies and other treats. The house was so private- you wouldn't see another soul for days if you so desired it! The hot tub on the deck was a real treat- the cool days would not bother us. We found ourselves spending many an evening sitting quietly in the tub, gazing out to the stunning bay of tranquil water, spotted with lights of Dover. The property had multiple interesting and easy bush walks on it, where we came across loads of wildlife and gorgeous natural scenes. There were only small towns near by which was perfect for us, but if you were hoping for busy streets and night life, its probably a bit too far from Hobart for you to enjoy that. I highly recommend this property for couples seeking a relaxing, private time away together.

We spent five nights here - it is an amazing house and so comfortable. The views are gorgeous and the estate is quite large with lots of beautiful walks. ||The kitchen is well equiped and has a nice coffee machine so you can make a latte in the morning. There is a laundry with washer and dryer. ||Living room is huge - lots of space and netflix available on the TV. ||We had the property let as one bedroom - the master bedroom is very comfortable - great bed. ||The location is great for exploring south Tasmania - Hartz national part, Tahune , Hastings Caves, Geeveston. Had a lovely lunch at Home Hill in Huonville.

2 nights for us who live within one hour's drive of The Peninsula Experience. ||The Cape House is warm and inviting through its spaciousness, privacy, views and comfort. Numerous sitting areas inside and outside.||Hot tub clean and great to relax within while admiring the night sky, dawn and sunset. ||We saw 2 sea eagles soaring on high, numerous small birds and a family of wedge tailed eagles circling at great height.

We stayed 3 nights in The Boathouse. ||You are not going to run to anyone at this place, it is very secluded. Very much a place to stay inside and watch the weather outside, which generally was wet and windy (ideal). Inside was a fireplace to supplement the central heating and in floor heating in the bathroom. So despite it being very cold outside the place was always warm.||This place was an ideal size for a couple. The hot tub was great. The place is still quite new, except for the doors which are suffering from exposure to the weather.||We went on the bush walk around the property which was quite a hike, but worthwhile doing. Dover is small country town, so not much to do, just relax.||Really couldn’t recommend this place enough as somewhere just to get away from it all.

5/5

We stayed in the Boathouse and it was superb. Everything in the cabin was high-spec and it much better than we were expecting.
The view from the deck across the water is lovely and it's a very short stroll down the track to the rock-beach looking toward Dover.
The spa in the deck was the icing on the cake. Watching a sunset in the spa with a glass from the bottle of complementary champagne was something we'll never forget.
Amenities, fixtures etc: excellent
Location: excellent
Quality of the building and the fitout: excellent
Bed: excellent (very comfortable)
Communication with Essentially Tas (the managers): excellent and very friendly
