There’s no better way to recharge the batteries or escape the hustle and bustle of daily life than a long weekend getaway at an adorable (and romantic) Tasmanian Bed and Breakfast. From country to coast and all the mountains in between, you’ll find your little nook with that someone special, or even the family, to rest your head with breakfast in bed. Sound good?
Bed & Breakfasts offer a private oasis for those on the hunt for something more homely than a hotel. You’ll be able to get insider tips as Bed & Breakfast owners dish out their local must see lists so you make the most of your holiday. From central, Georgian mansion escapes fringing the Hobart city to the more traditional Bed & Breakfast found around the state, Tasmania offers a range of accommodation experiences to suit every break!
One thing’s for sure, when it comes to staying at a bed and breakfast and that’s turning on the romance. From wine tasting to star gazing, it’s hard to get it wrong when you’re looking for somewhere cosy to enjoy with your other half. From gorgeous cottages at wineries, luxe villas to wooden cabins with well-worn fireplaces for those cool nights, we’re certain sparks will be flying by the time you check-in right through to check-out.
If this is the type of holiday accommodation you had in mind please contact us so that we can provide you with a selection of Bed and Breakfast choices to ensure your memories of your holiday are everything you imagined.
Backpackers visiting Tasmania are generally independent travellers that are looking to find something off the beaten track. Whilst we don’t go around beating tracks in the first instance, there are plenty of places to explore in Tasmania that might be considered slightly unusual and you’ll always find something to write home about. Backpackers hostels are a source of knowledge, as well as a place to meet like-minded people and swap stories, whilst Tasmania also provides plenty of wild, free camping spots for those nights when it’s just you and the pack on your back.
Backpacking in Tasmania is what you make of it – we wouldn’t recommend making it a quick and dirty trip, and be prepared to splurge on at least one bucket list item while you're here. Thankfully, splurges can be contained to amazing experiences and day trips with some great operators that specialize in working with you. This means you still get to see some great stuff, but there’s more focus on parks access and walks than there is food and wine – although there will be a little of that too. After all, this is Tasmania!
If travelling during our peak season, between late December through to around Easter, be prepared for there to be more people – and spend more dollars – than if you’re here in August, our quietest month of the year. If free camping is your aim, you can do this around most of the state and we can get you started with free print outs of these spots. We can also provide information on job finding and public transport, so be sure get in contact online before you arrive, or pop in once you’ve hit the ground.
As a backpacker here in Tasmania, you’ll want to ensure that you have a National Parks Pass, which not only enables you to enter all parks, but the total cost of the pass goes straight back into the parks, their staff and the maintenance of each of our parks. Given that over 40% of Tasmania is protected wilderness, it’s pretty important that we can keep the parks as pristine as they are today and the parks team do an amazing job of doing it!
You’ll also want to ensure you’ve packed good walking boots, a few pairs of warm socks, your beanie and a pen, so you can write home… No really, things are a little like old times here, you’ll have plenty of brag moments on Insta, but send a postcard home and share the Tassie love…
