Great find
This was a great find. Owner was very helpful and engaging. Excellent provisions for breakfast, both in terms of quality and quantity. Very quiet and spacious. Abundance of wildlife to see on the veranda. Great shower and laundry useful. Only negative being zero WiFi although very good 4G available. Photos don’t do it justice.

The owners are so friendly and accommodating. We were greeted with a fresh loaf of home made bread and some home made biscuits, along with fresh milk and apples from the orchard. The cottage is beautiful and the birds and wildlife exactly what we needed.

Rustic farm cottage in the bush, full of character. Plenty of space. And the bird watching was delightful.

A lovely retreat tucked away in the bush. Very clean and had everything we needed. It was great to be able to take our dog with us too. We were greeted on arrival with a freshly baked loaf of bread which was a lovely touch. Would definitely stay again.

This pretty little cottage was beautifully situated in the forest and very comfortable. I would recommend this for both families and couples, and it was great to have a yard for our dog. Katy

Lovely little cottage set in a beautiful landscape. Very reasonably priced, spaceous, well equipped and the hospitality was second to none-there was even freshly baked bread waiting for us!

Conventient and clean hotel.
What a fantastic stay at Glenbrook House and Cottage. We arrived late at the hotel but they turn on the lights for us and ready for us to jump straight to bed. We reserved the hotel after having a bad experience in Burnie but it was worth driving back to Penguin.

Lovely location and hosts
We spent two nights at this lovely B&B. We were well catered for at all times and the hosts went to every effort to make us feel comfortable. I would definitely return.

wonderful hosts, was made to feel real welcome
Great experience, would have loved to stay longer. The hosts were amazing. The room is very spacious, the ensuite very tiny (not good for XL guests). The environment is just beautiful, it's common to see wildlife, very peaceful and amazing scenery. If you wish to get away from it all, that's the place to be.

You'll need a car to reach Glenbrook but the short drive takes you to a beautiful setting. Barbara is the perfect host and just what I needed after a special day walking Mt Dial!

最高のファームステイ
２０ヘクタールもの広大な敷地で、自然の景観も、建物や庭も、大変美しいです。オーナー夫妻はまだこの土地を買って間もないということですが、農場を案内してくれたり、細やかな心遣いがうれしかったです。キッチンも貸して頂けたので、夕食を作ることができて助かりました。農場にはヘーゼルナッツやリンゴの果樹園があり、羊、あひる、鶏などがいました。たった一泊でしたが、とても思い出深い滞在になりました。
