The stone cottages feel very private and are lovely and picturesque, almost like you would imagine from a storybook. The views out to the Freycinet Peninsula were very nice, and when the log fire is burning, it's quite cozy. We stayed in a two bedroom cottage (which, while quite spacious and comfortable, is more like a one bedroom cottage with... More

Stayed in a spa suite for 2 nights with husband. Room was lovely, clean and comfortable, bathroom was modern and had a great large spa. Great balcony to sit out on and soak up the view. Unfortunately the experience of our stay was let down by the restaurant. Premium prices ($35+ for main) not matched with a premium service. Wait... More

The view of the beach was gorgeous! Our cottage has two storeys, and the beach was just in front of us. We enjoyed seeing the sunrise in the morning (and yes, we woke up early). Nonetheless, the beds on the upper floor were a bit too soft, but it seems to be the case everywhere in australia. We tried the... More

Piermont retreat is a small collection of beautiful stone cottages clustered around a colonial homestead on its own private beach on the beautiful east coast of tasmania (an easy 2 hour drive from Hobart airport). Sound good? it is. Fall asleep to the sound of the waves after a delicious dinner in the excellent restaurant, walk around several private beaches,... More

Thank you for your feedback. I wonder in what cottage you stayed, because cottage 9 is a three bedroom without fire place? As mentioned in another comment, our decor is more European Mediterranean style and I agree that if you are looking for a more modern Steel and Glass feel, Avalon would be probably more suitable. I apologize about the... More

My boyfriend and I recently stayed one night in a stone cottage (no. 14) I had booked it as a birthday surprise for him whilst we did a road trip around Tassie. We loved it, it was just what we needed, privacy, comfort, cosiness, relaxing spa bath and gorgeous log fire - ambience plus!. We put on a video but... More

We ( two couples) stayed in cottage 3 for one night. The cottage is comfortable but showing signs of wear and tear. Bathroom while functional, really needs upgrade, and the rest of the cabin was verging on shabby. Nonetheless we slept like babies and were bowled over by the view. Dinner in the restaurant was excellent, lovely food and service.

Thank you for your feedback. The two bedroom cottages are definitely more suitable for families than for two couples. The fact that there is only one bathroom and only one private room makes it a bit tricky for couples to sometimes find their expected luxury and privacy comfort. The fact that they had being built from solid stone from the... More

We stayed in cottage 14 just a few steps from the beach. The views to the Freycinef Peninsula are stunning and the bright starry nights beautiful. We enjoyed an excellent degustation dinner in the restaurant with perfectly matched local wines. However, we will not return. It is definitely not luxury accommodation as advertised on the website. The cottage is best... More

At the same time we would have much appreciated your concerns during your couple of nights stay. For us it is also very valuable... More

We stayed at this outstanding property for the 2nd time last week and it is still in our opinion one of the most ideal locations along the east coast - the views over the beach and ocean are breathtaking.

We spent 16 days travelling around Tassie and three nights were spent in Cottage 2 at Piermont. This was our favourite accommodation on our holiday! Amazing view from a large back deck, the bed was excellent, firm and with beautiful linens and the fireplace of course topped it off. I felt like I was in France. Rode the mountain bikes... More

We had the best time at Piermont Retreat. The owners really care for every aspects of their retreat. We stayed in cabin 10, a short 30 steps to the lovely fresh waters edge. Piermont is amazing, staff wonderful, location fantastic and world class food. If you want something that it truly spectacular but feels very relaxed and free, this place... More
