The Ridge North Lilydale

The Cob Barn is an enchanting forest retreat set on the northern slopes of Mt Arthur high above the village of Lilydale in north east Tasmania. Nestled on the edge of a pond with a rainforest backdrop, and adjacent to our peony farm, this secluded setting is an ideal place to unwind. There is a small rowboat on the pond for your enjoyment or relax around the fire pit at night under a starry heaven. The Cob Barn can accommodate two people but is not suitable for children. The building is a unique hand-shaped structure made from cob, a mixture of clay, sand and straw with interior lime rendered walls. Inside The Cob Barn, you can enjoy the warmth of a delightful wood fire and can relax with a selection of DVDs, books, games and music. The kitchen is well equipped for meal preparation, with hot plates, an oven and an espresso coffee machine. There is an easy walking track through the temperate rainforest behind The Cob Barn where you can wander beneath giant manferns, Blackwoods, Sassafras, Mountain Ash, Dogwood and Musk. The Cob Barn is just 45 minutes drive from Launceston airport. We are located 6 km from Lilydale.

A unique, historically significant property established by the Walker family is situated in a valley surrounded by rolling hills. Two romantic, fully self-contained cottages are set in 12 acres of park-like gardens, situated on the Northern Tasmania Wine Route. The cottages are arts and crafts in style, each with a queen-sized bed, a window seat overlooking the gardens, a fully self-contained kitchen and an en-suite bathroom. Private, with views over the hills and garden, they are a perfect place to find relaxation amidst trees and sweeping lawns. The property has been featured recently in five magazines, and the Pear Walk was selected by Australian Traveler as one of the best romantic B and B's in Australia. The garden has avenues of trees, some planted over 100 years ago, with more recent plantings of London Plane trees, laburnums and crab apples. There is a wide range of exotic trees from around the world some, over 100 years old, together with camellias, rhododendrons and thousands of daffodils. The Pear Walk is 25 minutes from Launceston and a few minutes from Lilydale. Close by are several wineries, the Lilydale Falls, the Hollybank Treetops Adventure and mountain bike track and the Bridestowe lavender farm.
