On the mainland of Australia, they tell you the terrible truth... it is unlikely that you will see a platypus outside of an animal sanctuary of some sort. They are nocturnal, aquatic and very shy. Then you arrive in Tasmania where you are far more likely to see one. Then you arrive a Cambridge House, where you see them anytime... More

The setting was gorgeous, the home comfortable and our hosts were very friendly and cooked a beautiful breakfast. The platypus in the creek at the bottom of the garden were a delight to watch More

We stayed at Cambridge House B&B for one night only (26 Jan 2012), but could have easily spent longer there if we had the time. The house is lovely and well kept, the room was large with ensuite (The Giffen Room) with a comfortable bed. Breakfast was huge! And delicious! We didn't eat lunch that day. The house is just...

My wife and I made a purchase via Wotif, and had no idea on the history of the homestead, along with the knowledge from the owners Karen and Glen. This was the original homestead from the original settlers in the area. Karen and Glen provided an excellent breakfast, with good tips for future travels in the area. Thoroughly recommend staying...

Cambridge House provided everything we needed, with a very comfortable downstairs room and pleasant hosts who got the balance between being helpful and being unobtrusive just right. Breakfast was also excellent, including imaginative use of local ingredients. Geeveston is well placed to access the sights of the region, but of course you do need a car and some of the... More

We spent a luxurious 3 nights at Karen and Glen's Cambridge House. Home cooked breakfasts daily, comprising fruit grown on the property as well as the traditional eggs, bacon and mushrooms gave our hostess Karen an opportunity to give a local tips for our daily jaunts. The house has been meticulously preserved, with comfy warm beds, even if the modern... More

What a charming place to stay - beautiful rooms in a beautiful house in a beautiful setting. Our room was spacious and immaculate, breakfast was delicious and more than sufficient to keep us going as we went out and about exploring the local area. Karen and Glen are wonderful hosts and are a great source of information of all there... More

Our two night stay at Cambridge House made it so easy to experience all that the Huon Valley Trail has to offer. We adored the Giffen Room one of two generously sized ensuited rooms - clean and warm with modern bathroom. A delightful guest lounge is available to mingle with the other guests or find solitary time watching a dvd.... More

We have stayed there twice and used it as our base to explore the beautiful Huon Valley. Each time Karen and Glen have provided a wonderful welcoming retreat - the rooms are clean and beautifully presented; the beds warm and comfy; the claw foot bath is to die for and the breakfast is delicious as well as very generous.
