    Wayne is the most warm and welcoming home stay host.

    Wayne is the most warm and welcoming home stay host. He and his two gentle border collies welcomed us and our kelpie into their beautiful home which sits near to but well above the beautiful beaches and main street of Penguin offering magnificent views of the vast Bass Strait. The people of Penguin are very friendly, the community run Op Shop full of fashions and treasures, bakery offering a huge range of delicious treats and free bikkies for visiting dogs, the fabulous Seasons by the Sea restaurant sitting right on the beach and run by delightful mother and daughters offering excellent local wines and creative food to die for! Clean accessible golden beaches with dog friendly leash free options, clean public toilets and lawns and play areas for children. The Neptune Hotel bistro on the seafront offers restaurant quality food served by the most welcoming friendly staff.

    Seasons by the Sea - restaurant that serves local, seasonal menu. The food and the service was fabulous, all this while overlooking the sea. Penguin is easy to walk around and has a lovely beachside walk along the coast.

    Penguin is a beautiful sea side town with lots of charm from the park to the beach with several interesting eateries to explore. Also a few interesting shops. The nearby town of Ulverstone while larger than Penguin is only 10 minutes away by car and has its own charms to explore. The mountains behind Penguin looked interesting and our host, Wayne had many suggestions for interesting places to explore. I cannot rave enough about how wonderful the included breakfast was. Our host made delicious scrambled eggs, fried mushroom, tomatoes and toast. This easily kept us going all day with only a light lunch.

    Growing up in Tassie an Island, its nice to stay by the Sea when you need to relax and switch off. I visited the Tulip Festival at Table Cape near Wynyard, I also went to the Penguin Markets on Sunday and walked along the beach in perfect October Spring weather.

    It was great to stay in a spacious apartment with lots of windows and great view directly out to the ocean. Easy walking with good footpaths and easy access (via the ramps) to the beach. There are some very nice cafes and good pub food.

    We were amazed by the stunning view. The interior decoration made us feel like immersing in a music world. The kitchen was fully equipped. We were provided ingredients for a full breakfast which was not advertised. We had the privilege to enjoy the whole house with five bedrooms which could accommodate 13 people, though we were only two couples. The owner only rents to one party no matter how many people the group has. Highly recommended if you’re going to Cradle Mountain or penguin viewing at Lilico Beach.

    House was very close to Penguin center and the beachfront but also set back enough that it was nice and quiet. Owner was very nice and very accommodating, with lots of helpful local information and suggestions, Room was nicely appointed with sea views, very comfy bed and nice walk through shower and bathroom. It was also nice to be able to use the rear, enclosed garden and sit out on the garden furniture to relax. Would definitely stay here again if in the area.

    The location of this property is fantastic. Our children absolutely loved the animals and we enjoyed our morning coffee with magnificent sunrises over the bay. Hugh and Liz were fantastic hosts and had great recommendations of things to do around the area suited to our family. Next time we travel to Tasmania we will be returning to Penguin Seaside Farm. Thanks Hugh and Liz!

    The peaceful location with lovely 360 degree views of mountains, rolling countryside and the sea - it has it all. The craftsmanship in the “hut” is exceptional! Also, convenient access to the shops of pretty Penguin. Grab a steak and cook up on the BBQ back at the hut! :)

    Our Hosts, Fran & Terry welcomed us on our arrival to their beautifully appointed house across the road from the beach. If I could give 6 stars I would as all of our needs were fulfilled. The evening port was certainly appreciated. Look forward to a return visit.
