Our stay at this accommodation was exceptionally wonderful. The property itself was absolutely beautiful—timeless, elegant, and truly a special place to relax and unwind. Every detail contributed to a memorable experience, and we had such a great stay from beginning to end. A special mention must go to Philip, who was simply amazing. He attended to all of our needs with genuine warmth and care, making us feel incredibly welcome throughout our stay. In the evening, he made us drinks and desserts by the fire. To make our visit even more special, Philip surprised us with a beautiful birthday treat to celebrate my husband's birthday. The next morning, he greeted us with a delicious breakfast, and his company was so warm, embracing, and enjoyable. His hospitality truly made our experience unforgettable. Thank you for such a wonderful stay. We will absolutely be returning to this beautiful accommodation and look forward to experiencing its charm and elegance again in the future.

Beautiful and enchanting! Wonderful experience all around! Highly recommend- you have to find a way to stay here. If we knew it was so nice, we would have stayed 2 nights but we already had paid reservations in another town for the next day. Breakfast included also.

My wife and I spent two nights at Villa Howden, at the start of winter. The weather was unfortunately lousy, very cold and rainy, so we couldn't get full enjoyment of the lovely grounds and location. Overall we enjoyed our stay, and that was largely due to hotel manager Phil and receptionist Yimie, lovely people who did everything in their power to make our stay pleasant. Also the room was large, bed comfortable, shower good. There were annoyances, though,such as being told on check-in that our tarrif (at the high end of Hobart hotel tarrifs) didn't include the free breakfast that was a big feature of their website's advertising, so it would cost us $33 for a single dish, plus extra for coffee, toast etc. Also, nowhere on the Web page (only in the Menu) did it mention that the restaurant was closed Mon//Tue, so we could not get anything to eat on arrival, and since it was so bleak we just went to bed without dinner. My impression was that, having charged a lot for a start, the owners were keen to then squeeze every extra dollar out of the customers. The website is misleading in not spelling out limitations and exceptions, just extolling purported virtues. By comparison, Lenna in Hobart, with a similar rating and tarrif, gave us a complimentary bottle of good wine for one night's stay! The place is undeniably lovely. Built in the 1970s, it is in the manner of an 18th century French villa. Lovely building, furnishings, grounds, views. Most positive memories — Phil & Yimie!

Outstanding property and environment, but unfortunately understaffed with poor communication. Could have been the best stay of our trip but spoiled by amazing lack of information. It felt like a cynical exercise in capitalism.

It was uniquely set against the mountains and water views were amazing. The provincial decor was very well done a picturesque honeymoon destination with a Tuscany feel. Absolutely recommend and will be back.

We only stayed for one night but we had a wonderful stay and can’t fault our experience. The facilities were beautiful and the food was delicious. We liked the little extra touches of the fire place and library. View from our balcony was amazing. I can definitely recommend staying and eating here.

Our room and bed were great, the staff and service was also fantastic. We had spent the day driving and were able to relax and have a nice hot shower. Only issue we had was the toilet water flow kept running a couple of times and was a little difficult to stop - we notified reception. The breakfast was delicious!
