Noel and Neal were great hosts. Nothing was too much trouble. Room was clean and warm. Breakfast was amazing with muffins, croissants and bread, then they asked what we would like to order as well for a hot breakfast. Whatever we didn't eat they then wrapped to take with us for the day. Good place to stay.

We stayed two nights as a base to explore Freycinet and Maria Island, and it was definitely an enjoyable stay. The twin room upstairs was comfortable and had all the essentials. The backdoor provided great convenience to the carpark. Other areas had wonderful heritage charm. ||||The breakfast was definitely the highlight. The al carte options had amazing variety for starters and mains, and the food was exceptional (perfect eggs and wild mushrooms). Definitely do not need lunch after those superb meals. To add a cherry on top, we were given carry bags for the truckload of pastries to finish for lunch. Thank you Noel and Neil. ||||As a small town, Swansea does lack dinner options after dark and walk-ins are especially difficult. So would recommend an early dinner before 6pm or reserve a table.

We had an amazing experience here! The room was gorgeous and comfortable. The hosts are great. They helped us choose a great outing to Maria Island which ended up being the highlight of our trip to Tasmania. The breakfast is incredible. Some of the best food we had in our entire trip, especially the cinnamon rolls. Also appreciated we could take pastries with us on our hikes. We also appreciated the recommendations for dinner as sometimes Google can be unreliable . We loved the adorable dogs too. I highly recommend if staying in Swansea or wanting to check out Frecinyet area.

A period house (circa 1850's) which is quite charming with its eclectic decorations. The room was comfortable and contained everything you would need as well as a decanter of port. A bonus was the home made muffins you received on arrival. ||Breakfast was stunning. Quite the best I have tasted in years of travelling over every continent (except Antartica). Even provided us with a doggie bag for the left over bakery products (all home made and superb). ||Highly recommended and we will try and go back there in the not too distant future.

At the recommendation of a friend who stays regularly even though he doesn't live far away we booked a night at Meredith House and Mews. Neal and Noel are the best hosts. ||||Greeted at the door by Neil who was out watering in the beautoful garden. Upgraded into a gigantic room with an extra bedroom. Handed a plate of muffins that had been freshly baked by Noel. Super compfy room that had everything we could wish for and more.||||We'd been told by our friend that the guys served the best breakfast on the east coast and he was not wrong. Croissants like airships, eggs benedict to die for, fruit salad, more pasties, a doggy bag to take away what we didn't eat. All of the baked goods made in house by Noel. Amazing.||||Loved our too short stay at Meredith House. Highly recommended!!

Our room upstairs in the 1853 heritage house was cosy, comfortable, tidy and had everything we could want (plus a few extras we didn't expect, like the complimentary muffins and port). Our hosts were wonderful and the breakfast...amazing. I didn't imagine you could introduce so many courses into a breakfast. The breakfast is worth 5 stars alone. Thank you

What a find! Last minute really but so happy we found it. Absolutely everything we needed was in the super comfortable and spacious room, and they even gave me lactose free milk and honey for my tea in the morning. The breakfast was amazing complete with a doggy bag of pastries and muffins for our trip. Thank you for having us. Highly recommend.

Comfortable, affordable, friendly, the chef made breakfast was top quality and included in the price!

Remember this isn't an Ikea catalogue, it's a historic homestead.

Beautiful views from our room of the Bay. Couldn't have asked for a better place. 6 stars actually!
