Donalea B&B

The Southeast


A trad, upstanding B&B with welcoming hosts, river views, a petal-filled garden and twittering birds – all rather English, really. Donalea has two bright rooms (one with spa), a spacious four-berth apartment and a guest lounge with a log fire. Breakfast involves blackberry muffins. Castle Forbes Bay is 15km south of Huonville.
