Detailed Reviews
Located near the mouth of the Mersey on Victoria Parade this excellently located and very private accommodation made our stay in Devonport thoroughly enjoyable. Wonderful hosts Rex and Julianne have done a fantastic job in making this your home away from home. Five stars all round.

We were staying in Devonport as the nearest big town to Lake Barrington where we would be watching some of the Australian National Rowing Championships. Birchwood seems to offer a range of types of accommodation and our apartment was located in the hosts’ house. It was large, spacious and well set out. Parking was provided but in difficult locations and not protected from the rain. It rained a lot over our two days here and we found the unprotected path between the car and our apartment a challenge even with umbrellas which had to go in the bathroom to dry off. None of this would be an issue in dry weather. Bed was large and comfortable, and kitchen was well appointed. The fridge had been turned off before we arrived but we didn’t notice as milk was in the door. We had placed liquids in the fridge and were surprised when they weren’t very cold at breakfast. The fridge was easy to turn on and we had cold liquids from then on. I looked for the internet password and it wasn’t till our second day that I spotted the note taped to the tiles above the sink. No major issues, but they caused me to reduce what would otherwise have been a top rating.

We stayed for two nights before boarding the Spirit of Tasmania the following morning. On arrival it feels like you have driven into a family driveway (mainly as you have!), but the service from the owner was very family oriented too. He met us as we pulled up and showed us to our two bedroom apartment. The owner lives on site and has converted the property to have two self contained apartments. Our apartment was large, had sea views, and was fully equipped. It is a little old fashioned, but very homely and comfortable.
Location is very good for restaurants and Devonport exploring. Highly recommended.

What a great apartment. Only had a one night stopover before catching the boat but was really impressed. Rex was a really nice man who offered to help us unload the car right away. Great sized rooms, beautifully decorated. Bed was so comfy, better than ours at home. Very very happy

Staying with Rex and Julianne was an absolute delight. I spent 14 days in their stunning property with a beautiful garden and located in the most picturesque part of Devonport.
The apartment was spacious, full of light and very clean, with the comfiest bed ever. Their beautiful dog Beau was very well behaved and loves a good pat too.
Will definitely stay again.

Immaculate. A bit busy for our taste but extraordinary attention to detail. Well stocked breakfast set up in the kitchenette. A comfortable cosy stay, excellent bed and quiet surroundings. . A welcoming host. Can book online, it seems a lot of B&B's require phone bookings. Very good position to catch early morning ferry.

Drove into Devonport after touring Tasmania for the past 8 days and found a real gem located right on the river front about 1 minute from the CBD. It is a well run small establishment, very reasonably priced, very clean and very friendly. There is a range of apartment type accommodations to choose from.

This accomodation is the most peaceful area in Deveonport and the appearance is very attractive. And the price was very reasonable compare wither others becuase the room size was quite bigger , especailly the condtion of room cleaness was excellent.
I would defaniately recommend this accomodation if you stay in Devonport.
It has a kitchen in each rooms. And it takes 5 min by car to get to the supermarket and 1min to get to the beach.
One thing if you want to look for a pool , you may find another one. The rest of things are all perfect.

We have stayed here 3 times now and still cannot fault the friendly service, the immaculate presentation, the quality of the rooms and furnishings.
We've been in both the River View and the Garden View units and while they are both excellent, the River View offers more room and more privacy.
We also stayed in their cottage next door and it it also top class.
Rex and Julia are the perfect hosts and cannot do enough for you.
If you are stopping over in Devonport, this is the place to stay.
