Just Delightful
Hazel was fabulous to communicate with. The cottage was super comfortable, with everything we needed. Lots of doggy friendly extras (couch over, towels, dog bowl etc), plus was fully fenced. There was even a bottle of bubbles and cheese and crackers in the fridge to enjoy after we had unpacked. The location is fabulous, close to all the beaches, plus whatever else you may need, ie, delis, grocers, and eating establishments. These are all a short drive away. We will be staying again!

Full Cottage, Private Entrance, Peaceful Space
My husband, our dog, and I stayed one night in this cottage and absolutely loved it. We had our privacy, but could easily contact host if needed. Once checked in we had our own private exit/entry. The cottage was very clean, beautiful designed, and the little touches left for guests by the host were very much appreciated. We were so sad we only booked it for a night. Our dog didn't want to leave either. Thank you for a WONDERFUL home away from home.

Sandford cottage
This was a beautifully presented property. The property manager was there to let us in. It was generously stocked with tea, coffee, biscuits, milk etc. Everything was very clean and in good condition. Most importantly it was lovely for the dogs. I would definitely recommend it and would love to stay there again.

A Marvelous Stay at Stanford in Tasmania
My recent 9-day stay at Stanford in Tasmania was nothing short of marvelous. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with warmth and hospitality that made us feel right at home. The accommodation provided exceeded our expectations and the host, Hazel, truly went above and beyond to ensure our stay was exceptional. The accommodation at Stanford was fantastic. The rooms were not only clean and comfortable but also tastefully decorated, creating a cozy and inviting atmosphere. Every detail had been thoughtfully considered, and it was evident that Hazel takes great pride in maintaining a high standard of quality for her guests. We had everything we needed and more. Speaking of Hazel, she was the perfect host. Her friendly and approachable nature made us feel instantly welcomed. She was attentive to our needs and went out of her way to ensure our stay was enjoyable. No request was too much trouble for her, and her willingness to accommodate our dog made our visit even more special. The fact that our furry friend had a fully secured area to roam and play in was a huge bonus. The location of Stanford was also ideal. Surrounded by open spaces and breathtaking scenery, it provided the perfect setting for relaxation and exploration. We enjoyed long walks in nature, taking in the beauty of the Tasmanian landscape. The tranquility and serenity of the area were exactly what we needed to unwind and recharge. I cannot express enough gratitude to Hazel for her exceptional hospitality

Adequate
The house was small but adequate. The bedroom is off the back deck. Air conditioning is new and good. Lounge was awful, old and saggy in base. No washing machine. Big property for the dog which was great.

Lovely Cottage - Excellent Host
We really enjoyed our stay in this beautiful little cottage. Private, very clean, the bed was super comfy. We appreciated the cheese and fruit platter and well stocked amenities. Our dogs loved being able to run around the huge yard which is well fenced. Hazel is very easy to communicate with and made sure we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Highly recommend!

It's the little touches that make this stay perfection!
Hubby, myself and our fubabies were extremely comfortable in this well appointed cottage. I loved that there were the basics for cooking - oil, salt and pepper, paper towel etc - and the coffee/tea cupboard was a wonderful little surprise. The fully enclosed yard was MASSIVE with cleared areas and natural bushlands which gave our girls plenty to explore. Highly recommend.
