点评:We recently stayed at the Old Farm Cottage at Brickendon Estate as two couples looking for a peaceful and unique weekend away—and it was absolutely perfect.
From the moment we arrived, we were transported back in time. The convict-built cottage from the 1820s had so much rustic character, yet it was warm, clean, and thoughtfully restored with modern comforts. The wood fire heater created such a cozy atmosphere for late-night chats, wine, and laughter, while the generously stocked kitchen made breakfasts easy and enjoyable.
Our highlights:
Waking up to birdsong and the sight of mist rising over the paddocks—just stunning.
The friendly farm animals, especially the highland cows and chickens, which gave the stay a real country charm.
Exploring the heritage buildings on the estate—old barns, stables, and the convict brickwork—all beautifully preserved.
A leisurely walk through the Convict Trail to Woolmers Estate followed by a relaxed picnic among the gardens.
Unwinding under the stars at night with no traffic, no noise—just peace.
We each had our own space in the cottage, and the beds were incredibly comfortable. There was also plenty of room in the spacious lounge and dining area, making it perfect for small groups.
What made it truly special was the authentic heritage atmosphere—we felt like we were part of Tasmania's early colonial story, but with all the comforts we needed. It was such a refreshing change from city life.
If you're two couples looking for a quiet, romantic, and meaningful stay, this is a rare gem. We'll definitely be back.

从抵达的那一刻起,我们仿佛回到了过去。这座建于19世纪20年代的囚犯建造的小屋保留了浓郁的乡村气息,却又温暖干净,并经过精心修复,配备了现代化的舒适设施。柴火取暖器营造出温馨舒适的氛围,适合深夜聊天、品酒欢笑;而储备充足的厨房则让早餐变得轻松愉快。
我们的亮点:
清晨,鸟鸣声响起,薄雾笼罩着牧场——令人叹为观止。
友善的农场动物,尤其是高地奶牛和鸡,为我们的住宿增添了真正的乡村魅力。
探索庄园内保存完好的古建筑——古老的谷仓、马厩和囚犯建造的砖墙。
悠闲地沿着囚犯小径漫步至伍尔默斯庄园,然后在花园中享受一顿轻松的野餐。
夜晚,在星空下放松身心,没有车水马龙,没有喧嚣——只有宁静祥和。
小屋里,我们每个人都拥有自己的空间,床也舒适无比。宽敞的休息室和用餐区也非常宽敞,非常适合小团体聚餐。
真正让这里与众不同的是地道的文化遗产氛围——我们仿佛置身于塔斯马尼亚早期殖民历史的长河中,却又拥有我们所需的一切舒适设施。与城市生活相比,这里真是令人耳目一新。
如果您是两对情侣,正在寻找安静、浪漫且意义非凡的住宿体验,这里绝对是难得的宝地。我们一定会再来的。
