The Shingles Riverside Cottages
Even though they are only a couple of minutes from the Central Business District, these cottages give you a tranquil and private place to stay, in a stunning waterfront setting, ideal for day trips in an area chock-full of things to do and where you wouldn’t think you were only twenty minutes from the centre of Hobart.
Your self-contained cottage could be Birches, with two bedrooms, one with a queen bed and the other with a queen and up to four singles; Derwent, one bedroom with a queen bed and two king singles, Willows, with a queen bed, single and trundles, giving sleeping space for up to four, or Paddy’s Flat with its queen bed (and a kitchenette but without a stove or oven). Common to all accommodation at The Shingles Riverside Cottages are reverse-cycle air conditioning and heat pumps, a widescreen television with DVD (and a selection of films), a washing machine (except for Paddy’s), facilities for barbecuing, electric blankets, and you get a generous set of ‘welcome breakfast’ provisions when you arrive. There is also a furnished patio connected to each property.
Bathrooms have a shower, complimentary toiletries, bathrobes and a hair dryer. There are laundry facilities on the site and you can get your hands on an iron and ironing board should you need them. The Shingles Riverside Cottages sports a swimming pool, offers free self-parking and has wireless internet available throughout the premises.
Children are welcome (but not pets), and high chairs are available on request. The front desk is open from as early as seven in the morning to as late as nine in the evening.
As well as being in a quaint riverside location, you are also less than eight kilometres from Rosedown Gardens and Salmon Ponds Heritage Hatchery and Gardens, and if you fancy driving about twenty-five kilometres further afield, you can find Myrtle Forest and Claremont House. New Norfolk itself has the reputation of being the antiques capital of Tasmania, and that can be seen if you go for a wander around the local shops.
Located in New Norfolk, this cottage is within 1 mi (2 km) of Anglican Church of St Matthew and Derwent Cliffs State Reserve. Willow Court Asylum and Rosedown Gardens are also within 2 mi (3 km).
An outdoor pool, laundry facilities, and a garden are available at this cottage. Free WiFi in public areas and free self parking are also provided. Other amenities include barbecue grills.
All 4 accommodations provide kitchens with microwaves, plus free WiFi and flat-screen TVs with DVD players. Furnished patios, coffee makers, and hair dryers are among the other amenities available to guests. Housekeeping is not available.
