Great breakfast

Stayed in May 2024

The lovely large room with the sound of a bubbling creek nearby. Watching the sheep being herded. The history and walking around the property ☺️

No wifi in the room, just at the main lodge. Worked well there though.

The employees at the farm took the time to tell us about the history of sites and family members of the farm, and were incredibly welcoming. Spent the evening by the fire learning and chatting.

The home cooked dinner is amazing. I love the relaxed homely vibe staying at the farm. The highland cows are super cute too.

The connecting door between my room and the next was paper thin so I could hear everything. The $55 dinner was tepid by the time it got to me. The cheese board starter was a lovely touch though. When k was offered a drink to start the evening I (naively) presumed it was included in the price but it was not.

Comfortable and clean, microwave, fridge, and kettle in the room with tea/ coffee making facilities. Electric blanket in the bed!!

The lighting was a bit dull.

The room was a good size, it was clean. The host was fantastic. We loved the dinner and the company. We were allowed to roam the homestead.

What a wonderful stay. We decided to break up our trip home to Hobart from the east coast and impulsively booked a room at Ratho Farm. The welcome from the staff was exactly right - warm, present and unobtrusive. The room was perfect, relative to the price - very clean and spacious, and a little rough around the edges. Dinner was simple and delicious, and the main house was a cosy place to hang out and relax. We will be back.

Can’t think of anything that needed improving. 😀

Enjoyed meeting all the other guests out on the deck for drinks. Thought the honesty tab was great and loved the delicious cheese platter plus the views over the property during sunset were amazing.

The history of the farm and the host's delight in sharing it with guests.

This working farm with a history dating back to the 1820s is a fascinating location! The communal evening meal is great and an excellent way to begin to appreciate the property, It is well-worth experiencing that especially on your first night!

Lovely architecture and the surrounding landscape is very charming. Staff were excellent and made a great effort to entertain and look after the guests.

We stayed one night and did not play golf. This was the dearest accommodation during our stay in Tassie but you do get the history and a great feed. If you were a golfer it would be better value.

The host Michael made this experience ! Dinner was fantastic ( and we were late arrivals). The accomodation was clean and comfortable and being on a farm away from traffic noise was a real winner.

Michael (the farms exceptional host) was really fun and pleasant to interact with. Nothing was a problem for him and he made everyone feel welcome and included. Definitely wonderful place to stay even if you don't play golf. Make sure that you book in for dinner as the stories and food are not to be missed.

Friendly staff. Felt right at home

Wish the room had a dining table and some basic utensils such as spoons/forks and bowls.

Very warm and comfortable stay. Cosy and felt like an experience as opposed to just a hotel room!

Nothing to dislike

Ratho Farms was the absolute best!! The location and history of the farm were amazing, and the accommodation was unique and historic. I am so happy we picked this accommodation, I also recommend having dinner there as it was nice to chat with other travellers, and the host Michael was a fantastic and entertaining host on local history of the 200 year main residence of the property.

It was unfortunate that Michael only turned up to the 8am breakfast at 9am, by which point a lot of guests had come and gone & hadn’t been able to enjoy the option of bacon/eggs etc.

Characterful property, comfortable, clean & spacious. Dinner in the property was very tasty & the after dinner readings relating to the history of the property were great.

Loved the hospitality from Greg and Michael! Added bonus of history readings at dinner and a couple of rounds of golf on the oldest course in Australia. Really enjoyed our stay and the new years eve bbq - thanks guys!!

Ratho farm looked after us well. We felt welcome from the moment we checked in, and the room is very clean. We also had dinner with them, which turned out to be an amazing experience.
