We stayed here with my brother in law and his wife when we spent a week touring Tasmania in mid March 2013. This is a B&B of the highest standard; purpose designed, immaculately clean, excellent facilities and great food. We had dinner with Margaret and Alan, thoroughly enjoyable with very good local wine. A superb breakfast the next morning set... More

We rented a house under their management for 2 days in January. The friendly demeanor we had grown accustomed to from the people of Tasmania was nowhere to be found when we checked in with this facility: Upon entering the house upon arrival, the first thing the owner said was "you are 10 minutes early!" (check in time was 3... More

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Sheoaks. You couldn't ask for a better location - it's a quick ride to Freycinet Park and after a day of hiking, it was relaxing to take a walk out the back deck to a quiet beach and watch the sunset. Just perfect! Alan and Margaret were gracious hosts - always willing to make... More

Alan and Margaret were fantastic hosts - friendly and very informative. After booking, they sent a Tasmania guide through the post and directions via email. Upon arrival, Alan took us through all the info on Sheoaks and the area. The B&B was impeccably clean, well appointed, comfortable, with amazing views of Coles Bay? The location was fantastic, with direct beach... More

My partner and I stayed here in Feb 2013 and almost cannot fault Sheoaks. The house is excellent and guest's rooms are clean and have very comfy beds. The only issue as others have mentioned is slight flooding from the shower but a well placed bath mat controlled it well enough for us. There are wonderful views out over the... More

We stayed with two more couples at waterline for one week. Great house, perfect view, good infrastructure. But the "sheoaks couple" that runs their b&b and supposedly looks after the attached selfcatering are the most unfriendly people we have ever met in Australia.

Everything was excellent. Close to the beach. Lovely room with comfortable bed. Tea and coffee facilities with home made cookies and chilled water for hikers. Breakfast was wonderful and we were offered more than we asked for. Hosts were very friendly. Printed off directions for our next destination, suggested places to stop and see along the way and even made... More

My best friend and I travelled to Coles Bay for two nights on our way to Hobart. We were advised we would be unable to have two consecutive nights in Sheoaks and were offered to stay one night at Margaret & Alan's daughter's place up the road. We did not know it was owned by their daughter at that time.... More

We stayed with a group of friends for 1 week at waterline, a fantastic house with beautiful views! But the owners should rethink the arrangement with the "sheoaks couple" that runs their b&b and supposedly looks after the attached selfcatering houses!! they seem to think of the self catering houses as an "inconvenience"..to say it nice!! They were the most... More

We only stayed two nights here but boy do we regret not staying longer!! Lovely room with all the home comforts you would want. Plus extras like home made cookies to help yourself to and let's not forget the port as well. But the best bit has to be the home cooked breakfasts which were enough to make you skip... More
