Stay in a Private Riverside Mansion – Just Outside Hobart

The Woodbridge Tasmania

A place to slow down, breathe, and step away from the everyday.

Wake to gently flowing water and soft morning light over the Derwent River.

Spend unhurried days exploring vineyards, villages and quiet landscapes.

Return to space, calm and complete privacy.

Just 25 minutes from Hobart – and yet, a world away.

Reopening September
