The rural sheep farm offered quiet, a modern cabin, excellent food dinner, a wonderful farm tour that included wallabies, echidnas, a sheepdog herding demonstration, and an up-close sheep shearing demonstration. The owner is gracious and informative in several languages. We spent 2 nights enjoying comfortable beds and the calls of many interesting birds and animals. Nearby we can also recommend the gin distillery tasting and hiking the 3 waterfalls at Mt. Field national park.

It was amazing! The house was big and spacious. Quiet and comfortable. The farm tour was great, just abit costly. The house has quite a number of crawling insect during the night time. Otherwise it was a great experience!

Great stay at Curringa Farm
We had a fantastic couple of days at the Curringa Farm. The chalet is well-located (far off the main road), big and well-equipped enough for a much longer stay. It has all necessary amenities. We also enjoyed a generous barbecue hamper on the second day. It is not too far from the walks at Mount Field national park.

Stunning Property and Wonderful Hosts!
We stayed 'Over The Back' in one of the beautiful log cabins. It's incredibly quiet, the views around the property are amazing and the owners are absolutely wonderful. Grab yourself some champagne, fire up the BBQ and enjoy the Australian wildlife. Our only regret is that we couldn't stay longer. Highly recommended!

Our family of four enjoyed the space and luxurious touches at our Curringa cottage. We had a stunning outlook over the dam and watched as the setting sun changed the surrounding countryside to a golden glow. The hosts were very friendly, helpful, and supplied a generous breakfast for the first day’s stay. We wished we could’ve stayed on a little longer. Very relaxing in a beautiful setting.

Nothing to not like about the place!! Stayed in the seaglenest studio, really pretty. Each accommodation in the farm is set a distance away from each other so you’ll have your own privacy. Woke up to sheeps grazing in the back. They have a couple of alpacas and highland cows as well. Tim and Jane were kind enough to arrange for someone to show us around the farm when they couldn’t fit us in for the tour (thanks Sophie!). Highly recommended to stay here!

Thank you for your review. The optional farm tour is separate to our accommodation offerings. Yes it is very informative. As we are a real working farm it is not like an artificial play farm. We work hard to fit everything in and give you some fantastic photo opportunities with your own camera. Hope to see you again one day.

Checking in was a bit worrying but we did arrive quite late, next time we'll know better. It is, after all, a working farm as well as accommodation & entertainment/educational (farm tours). The cottage set-up was wonderful, the only thing I didn't like - because I am prude - was the lack of a toilet door. One can always sing when "occupied" I suppose!

Hi Sally Thanks for your review. Sorry about the contemporary design. It was a glitch in the building design and we are working with our builders to update this single older cottage. I'm sure your singing resonated beautifully behind the ample screening wall partition. Cheers Tim and Jane.

It was great driving down a windy dirt road to get to our very modern 2 Bedroom cabin. Tim the owner was very helpful and had provided a lovely fresh breakfast of bacon, eggs, bread and cereals. We arrived at night so didn't get to see the lovely view from our room in the morning. We would definitely say here again

Overnight stay at lovely Farmhouse
The 9 of us friends had a lovely stay. The farmhouse looks newly renovated and much better than the picture shows. BBQ food and breakfast supplied was much more than we could consume. We had an overnight stay here to break the trip between Pedders Wilderness Lodge and Hobart. The stay far exceeds our expectations. Will definitely come back when I am back in Tasmania with my family.
