This gorgeous renovated Victorian mansion built by the owner's great-great grandfather, a former Hobart mayor, sits high on the Glebe hillside a short (steep!) walk from town. Each room is different – the loo with a view in the Verandah Room is a winner – and there are three cottages and two ultra-modern pavilions sprinkled through the meticulously maintained parterre gardens.
The cooked breakfast is full of Tasmanian produce.
