Situated on the banks of Tasmania’s beautiful River Derwent, this grand Georgian mansion is just 30 minutes from Hobart yet feels a million miles away. Built by convicts in 1825 as a luxurious gentlemen’s residence, the property was completely renovated two years ago by owners John and Laurelle Grimley to form this elegant nine room retreat. ‘Contemporary classic’ best describes the style of this ‘Small Luxury Hotel’. The luxurious suites – each named after a chapter of the building’s history – have cool, creamy décor, polished floors, open fireplaces, stylish bathrooms and wonderful river views. The ‘Woodbridge experience’ is warmly welcoming and personal, and the cuisine features high on the agenda. Breakfasts are legendary and dinners focus on fresh Tasmanian produce (including fish straight from the river and locally-produced beers and wines). Explore the beautiful Derwent Valley, lose yourself on one of the many wilderness walks, be enchanted by Tasmania’s wildlife (platypus, possums, quolls, wallabies, wombats and devils can be found in the valley), fish right in front of the hotel (a local fishing guide can be arranged), go kayaking or jet-boating on the river – or simply relax in the glorious gardens which cascade down to the river.
