    Great B&B

    We had the Magnolia room for 2 nights at the end of a 3 week trip around Tasmania. It was a wonderful way to end our trip. The room was large with a cosy feel and the facilities were very good. Cliff and Fifi are charming hosts and were very friendly and helpful. We highly recommend a stay here if you visit Devonport.

    Great Stay

    We recently stayed with Cliff and Fifi at Stony Rise, we were greeted by Cliff our host on our arrival, he is a great host. He helped and showed us to the 2 rooms that we stayed in during our onite stay. Our rooms were very comfortable and lacked no conveniences that made our stay very enjoyable.
    The location was very easy to find after we left the Spirit, approx 8 minutes. An enjoyable experience and we highly recommend to you.

    Tuesday evening.
    What a days experience travelling on the spirit of Tasmania? The storm lashed the ferry with 5,6 meters waves. White knuckles . The Captain said “.Oh ,we just hit a pot hole”otherwise everything is as normal in Bass Straight?

    I arrived at the Stony Rise Cottage very late. I was surprised to be met and welcomed by Cliff. I was initially going it alone to find my room with my trusty torch.
    I think others from the ferry, felt grateful you were up too.
    Thank you for your warm and friendly hospitality.

    Stayed here just for a night off the Spirit of Tas before driving but wished I could’ve stayed longer. The grounds are beautiful and full of wildlife at night.

    We even had the opportunity to try Fifis home made apple pie to which my son admitted was better than his Granny’s.

    We enjoyed our stay at Stony Rise Cottage, everything we might have needed was provided. It was comfortable and relaxing, a beautiful garden outside and the breakfast room was stunning with the morning sunshine streaming in! The rooms were spotlessly clean and beds comfortable. The hosts were considerate and obliging – all in all I’d recommend Stony Rise Cottage for anyone coming to Devonport.

    Cliff and Fifi made us very welcome and we enjoyed the beautifully presented early style decor and furnishings.
    In a quiet location but still close to Devonport town and places of interest. Fifi’s home made jams added a lovely touch to our breakfast.

    The rooms are lovely & close to shops etc , the gardens are just beautiful.
    Our only 1 thing I can can is maybe in form people or remind them to book for breakfast if they would like it because we didn’t read the sign in the hallway & didn’t book & it would have been lovely to eat there in the morning. But other than that I highly recommend the cottages. Fifi & cliff were lovely people .

    We were very fortunate to source accommodation at Stony Rise Cottages mid week and unplanned whilst waiting for our motorhome to be repaired.
    We stayed in the lovely Magnolia room, it was luxurious and so large. As we were late arrivals, new to Devonport and not eaten most of the day, Cliff had a good selection of the local eateries who delivered which was appreciated. Fifi and Cliff are lovely, friendly hosts and their attention to detail throughout the entire homestead is unbelievable, everything has been thought of, gardens are fabulous….a treat for us to stay there and I would definitely suggest for anyone looking for a very unique accommodation to visit Stony Rise Cottages.

    Disappointing stay

    Unfortunately, our stay was not what we had hoped for.
    We were catching the ferry in the morning, and although paid for bed and breakfast, did not receive breakfast.
    I think it may be useful to know for those catching morning ferries that no breakfast is provided.
    Even a little continental breakfast would have been really appreciated.
    Having said that, the room was reasonable and the bed comfy.
    No ensuite, so have to share the one bathroom with others
    No fridge in room or use of one in the establishment was another letdown, a shame because the cottage looks so great online.

      This is a disappointing review because it contains a number of inaccuracies which we would wish to clarify as follows:-
      1. The booking for this guest did not include payment for breakfast.
      2. Booking was made by the guest through the Booking.com platform which sets out clearly that breakfast is additional to the room price and that the room shares a bathroom.
      3. Our website also is clear that the Oak Room shares a bathroom and that breakfast is an additional extra.
      4. Our room rates are structured in this way as our guests often have an early morning departure to meet the ferry sailing schedule. That allows us to reduce the room rate by excluding the breakfast cost.
      5. Price for the room also recognizes that the room comes without an ensuite.
      6. Reference to the absence of a fridge in the room is noted. We are in the process of adding fridges to rooms. Presently three of our rooms do have a fridge, but unfortunately not the Oak Room as yet where Mr and Mrs Chartres stayed.

      It is hoped that these comments do go some way toward clarifying the guest comments. We have endeavored to place all relevant information on the booking platform websites, on our own website and are continually reviewing it to ensure its accuracy.

    Very pleasant experience. Have never stayed at B&B before and was very impressed. Room decor was lovely, service impeccable and the rooms were very comfortable. Clifford (the host) was very friendly and talked to me early on the morning of departure. My only suggestion to him, was a small fridge in the room, but other than that I loved staying there. The grounds are beautiful, a property I’d love to own/live in myself all the time. Thank you for a memorable stay.

    This lovely little gem of a bygone era, nestled amongst, more modern houses,
    is a welcome relief from everyday type accommodation .

    Thankyou to Fifi and Clifford for the lovely stay at Stony rise cottage in Devonport Tas. We had a very warm welcome and the stay was very comfortable the place has beautiful gardens and the house has lots of charm. The beautiful smell of bread cooking gave it that extra mile.
    Was very enjoyable!

    This was one of the best places we stayed in during our 9 days in Tassie. The rooms were spacious and comfortable and Clifford was very friendly and offered good advice on places to eat around the area. Thoroughly enjoyed our night here and would definitely stay again

    Stony Rise Cottage Bed and Breakfast has a wonderful, warm feeling, matching the welcome from the hosts who were very helpful, providing a list of places locally where I could eat. The rooms are comfortable and warm, the bathroom very well appointed and I felt very welcome in the guest lounge where I could make a drink and sit in comfort catching up on emails. This accommodation is well situated, close to town with beautiful grounds, especially in spring! I thoroughly enjoyed my stay.

    Thank you Clifford and Fifi for welcoming us into your beautiful home. We enjoyed everything about our stay, especially spending time with you over our delicious cooked breakfast!

    This is a beautiful location, a stylish older style home with quality fittings and a magnificent garden to enjoy and relax in. Cliff and Fi were outstanding hosts giving us their attention and support during our stay. We had two little children with us and this was never and issue for them. In fact they welcomed us into their home and our children played with their grandchildren. We also had our own privacy and areas to relax in including a lounge and sunny balcony. The location was perfect for our connections to the Spirit of Tasmania ferry service, and to down town Devonport.

    Clifford and Fi made us very welcome upon our arrival at Stony Rise. The B&B is in a great position and a short drive from the ferry terminal so is an ideal place to stay. Clifford gave us good advice on places to eat in the area especially as our stay coincided with a public holiday. There rooms were all comfortable clean and well appointed. We woukd definately recommend to fellow travellers!

    Fifi and Cliff were a very warm couple with a lovely place and we enjoyed staying there with the family. The grounds were gorgeous and we loved bringing our dinner back and eating on the verandah. We had a lovely table and chairs in our room where we had a quiet read before bed. It was a very positive experience.

    Clifford and Fifi are wonderful hosts. Their B&B is charming and very comfortable. The bedrooms and amenities are large, comfortable and clean. The lounge is elegant and comfy too. The little added extras like bottled water and chocolates bedside and a very well equipped bathroom were greatly appreciated. Do yourself a favour and stay for breakfast with Clifford and Fifi, they are lovely people and their breakfast is sensational (best strawberries ever!! and Fifi’s home grown tomatoes were awesome but hard to keep on your plate, whoops, sorry about that) and great value. We had a wonderful time and only regret that we weren’t staying longer. The proximity to The Spirit of Tasmania berth is an added bonus if you are sailing the Strait by day.

    Lovely place to stay. Friendly, helpful hosts. Beds were really comfy and being able to have a bath was amazing. The 10 minute drive to the spirit of Tassie, just off the freeway, was really convenient, and being 1.5 hours from cradle mountain was really handy. Thank you for having us.

    A very clean and comfortable place to stay with nice little touches like good quality toiletries and a variety of teas. We were only there one night before catching the ferry home, so a great spot for the early morning start.

    Fifi and Cliff heartily welcomed our family of 5 into their home. Great set up for a couple of teenagers in one room and parents and younger child in another plus a lounge area to watch TV/DVDs or just relax. Bedrooms are very spacious and free Wi-Fi meant our kids were extremely content! Gorgeous grounds to wander throughout or take advantage of the back porch and enjoy a drink, which we did. Short drive to the city centre for dinner and a drive around the Mersey Bluff area.
