Stayed for one night, after Sheffield was reccommended to us for its murals. The hosts were friendly, especially when we discovered we'd both lived in Blackburn, UK. As it was winter there were plenty of rooms and we stayed to the rear which was very quiet and allowed us to park by the room. We had a double bed and the children bunk beds and there was a fully equipped kitchen. A nice touch were a few cans of soft drinks and you're given milk to go with the coffee. We used the heater provided as it was cold in the rooms and appreciated the extra blankets. As we arrived late on a Sunday there wasn't much open, but we were recommended the local bakery which was indeed good, just to the left of the inn on the high street. The big selling point are the murals dotted around the town, info from the tourist info office which had comprehensive coverage for Tasmania. We visited the marble shop on the high street that we left with marbles and earings made from glass.
Overall a welcoming good value inn handily located for the Cradle Valley area.

We stayed one night in Sheffield and had an excellent stay in this country town. We hadn't booked in advance and got the last room available which was a two bedroom self-contained apartment, although we only needed a one bedroom. The rate was very reasonable and the apartment had everything we wanted including kitchen (with complimentary soft drinks in the fridge), two bathrooms (ideal if using both bedrooms), comfortable bed etc. There was no noise from the main street and we had plenty of car parking outside our apartment.

The hosts were very helpful giving us a map of a drive around the town to see the murals which the town is noted for. They also told us where the eating places were and we decided to eat across the road at the Sheffield Hotel. We can recommend the food and had a hearty country dinner there.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this town and would definitely stay at this place again.
