Cambridge House

Fantastic breakfast, service and location right by Platypus Walk. A great place to stay but our rooms was hot and small with thin walls so we heard snoring from next door all night.

The room we stayed in was spacious and comfortable, but the bathroom had obviously not been used (or cleaned) for a while - resident daddy long-legs spiders and webs present, some dust under the claw-footed bath and quite a dust collection under the bed. However, the towels were changed after our first night and bed made up (unsure whether sheets were changed or not). Cooked breakfast was set but good - poached eggs, toast, mushrooms, tomato, bacon. Home-made stewed fruits were delicious - rhubarb or apple and blackberry. Small/basic selection of cereals - weet-bix, cornflakes + 1 other (just right?).

Platypus at end of garden wonderful owners and homemade produce

Cambridge House is a lovely heritage property set in beautiful grounds which go right down to the Kermandie River. If your lucky, like us, you’ll catch a glimpse of the resident platypus. Our room, The Giffen, was spacious, immaculate & spotless. The bed was very comfortable & we slept soundly in this peaceful haven. It is handy to the shops & great restaurants in Geeveston. I recommend ‘The Bank’. Karen & Glen we’re welcoming hosts & the breakfast was hearty & delicious. We look forward to returning to stay here again & highly recommend it as a comfortable stopover.

Karen and her husband are wonderfully accommodating and thoughtful hosts. The room was beautiful and the beds very comfortable. I highly recommend this B&B.

The managers were engaging and breakfast was just great The stairs to your room were a little steep, especially with a big bag and the acoustics between downstairs and upstairs not so good but overall a great place to stay

Don't get me wrong this was a lovely chance to rest and relax. But the accommodation is a bit tired. Our bathroom was across the hall & wasn't convenient, especially at 3am! Also very small. The furnishings are traditional with the heritage theme, but could use some updating. As with most B&B's it was a bit noisy, you can hear the other people. Glen & Karen cooked a beautiful hot breakfast! Karen was very friendly and helpful too. There is a creek close by with is a lovely walking track. Yes we would stay here again, but ask for a different room next time. One with a bit more space. Pretty cottage, pretty garden.

Was a lovely place to stay, would stay again in a heartbeat. Service was fantastic, breakfast was awesome also was very peaceful.

Lovely, homely place. Third time we’ve stayed here and the service and location and owners are all fantastic. We’ll be back!

Great food, warm and comfy, hot water and a wonderful host who helped us decide on activities and where to eat.

My friend, with whom I shared a room, and myself highly recommend staying at Cambridge House. I stayed there a couple of years ago so knew I would not be disappointed. Karen and Glen are very welcoming, friendly and helpful. The breakfasts are absolutely delicious and set you up for the day. The beds are comfortable and the rooms very clean and well laid out. If you are planning on visiting the beautiful Huon Valley this is the home in which to stay and don't forget to check out the platypus playing in the stream which runs alongside their property.

We had a wonderful stay our room was wonderful and very comfortable, our hosts were very friendly and welcoming. The breakfast was fabulous home grown fruits and yummy cooked brekkie. Beautiful gardens will definitely be back some day.

Traditional old Tasmanian house in large gardens. Nicely furnished room with large shower room. Great cooked breakfasts and a very helpful host. Difficult to improve on I would think.

Friendly hosts, beautiful and clean, fantastic breakfast, would recommend to everyone.

Fabulous old house with generous hosts making you very welcome. Best home cooked breakfast ever and homemade jams, loved it all

This was my first experience in a B&B and I was impressed. The home is gorgeous and the garden is beautiful. We loved seeing the platypus in the river at the bottom of their garden. The owners were warm and friendly. Check-in and check-out was a breeze. Breakfast was scrumptious with cereal, toast, jams, and a selection of hot food cooked to order. Our room was comfortable and had a heater and pedestal fan but no airconditioner. We had a fridge and kettle with plenty of teabags and coffee. The bed was lovely with clean crisp sheets and we had a brilliant sleep. The ensuite was great with luxurious Sheridan towels. The shower was excellent with lots of hot water. The location is fantastic and walking distance to the park and platypus river and we also walked to a Turkish restaurant for a nice dinner. The Internet was quite good. We would love to stay here again.

CAmbridge Cottage was very comfortable with a warm and friendly atmosphere. The gardens were very pleasant and we thrilled at the opportunity to see Platapus in the creek that ran alongside the property.

150 year old establishment with period features. Great breakfast and very comfortable room & bed. Karen was extremely helpful. Platypus in river at bottom of garden a real bonus. Geeveston is a great place to stay close to Hobart, Bruny Island & Tahune Airwalk. Would recommend both to anyone.

Lovely comfortable accommodation. Karen was very welcoming and helpful. The room was very comfortable and cozy, with generous luxury towels and linen. The breakfast was huge and delicious and included lovely home grown produce. The rhubarb was amazing! Beautiful surroundings and Karen directed me to see the local platypus in the river at the bottom of the garden. Recommend Cambridge house highly.

Enjoyed our overnight stay in this historic setting. Karen and Glen were excellent hosts. Great breakfast too.
