Stepping back in time, the unique farmlet in Penguin will charm you with its old English gardens and farm buildings C.1948. Nestled on top of a hill amongst Blackwoods, Blue Gums and wild birds, this place has a special romance with each season. If staying in, be surrounded by whimsical comforts or be entertained by their friendly Australian Miniature Goats. Prepare to be enchanted.
Make your stay memorable and join Brad in the morning or afternoon for your complimentary introduction to the friendly miniature goats, ducks, chickens and guinea fowl. Bucklings and doelings are born each Spring.
In your cottage, they provide a queen bed with luxe bedding, extra blankets and hot water bottles. Split air conditioning for heating or cooling and a small extendable table is provided along with a TV, DVD player, movies, WiFi, outdoor seating, private shower and toilet. Carefully chosen books, games, and puzzles also to enjoy.

Hideaway Farmlet is central to the northwest and just over 1 hour's drive to Cradle Mountain, Stanley and Launceston. Stay at least two nights to visit all the beautiful and unique surrounding towns all under an hour's drive from the farmlet.

Located just off Penguin's main street and less than a three-minute walk from the ocean, Destination Therapy offers a private retreat-style healing experience within the tranquil setting of In Penguin: the space to pause.
Guests arrive to the scent of sea air and the gentle rhythm of the coastline. The ocean is only moments away, inviting a natural sense of calm before and after each session.
Destination Therapy is designed for travellers seeking meaningful rest and reconnection. Each experience is tailored to individual needs and may include guided nervous system regulation and meditation, integrative therapeutic bodywork, trauma-informed therapeutic approaches, and personalised wellbeing consultations.
Sessions take place in a calm, light-filled sanctuary intentionally created for pause and renewal. The environment supports quiet reflection, emotional balance, and physical restoration.
Destination Therapy is founded by an Accredited Social Worker and Integrative Therapist. The experience combines structured therapeutic practice with the restorative energy of Tasmania's coast.
After their session, guests can extend their visit with a short walk to the shoreline to deepen their sense of balance and clarity.
Destination Therapy offers more than a treatment. It offers a considered pause within a Tasmanian journey.
