The photo shown is a collage of 3 photos. The site was presented quite well. Lovely lawn and BBQ area opposite units. Ample and roomy parking at unit door. Unit spacious but basic. Wifi dodgy and slow but difficult to join at peak periods. Bed and pillows comfortable. Basic kitchenette useful. Motel backs on to main road screened by high hedge but traffic noise still present at peak times in the evening and early morning. Close to town. Recommend Sheffield Pub for dining. I missed the motel information about breakfast orders but we did our own thing anyway. A good place to stay for our 3 nights to visit Cradle Mountain and surrounds.

Clean & comfortable. Very Helpful host, great laundry we used 6 ($1 coins). Quiet all night, a little traffic in the morning. Bit cool to walk into town centre in August - but that's Tassie.

At the edge of a quaint little Tasmanian village. Nice to walk up into town for dinner and some shopping. They also have alpacas on property if you want to check out some friendly livestock. The hostess (owner?) was quite helpful with recommendations and making changes so we could get a load of laundry done too.

Very welcoming when checking in. The property was very clean and had everything that we needed for our short stay. We enjoyed our picnic on the lawns with the Llamas looking on. It was very good value for money. We would definitely recommend this place for anyone wanting a stay in beautiful Sheffield. The accommodation is very close to the shopping strip. 10/10 👌😉
