Family-friendly vacation rentals in Central Plateau

We had such a wonderful stay. It’s such a unique spot to stay and the host is so welcoming and help us so much when we where going the pod. Definitely recommending this place to everyone.

Sue's cottage is comfortable, warm and in a nice location in Deloraine. My family were only there to sleep, but would have enjoyed exploring the garden if we had the time.

If you're looking for a place to breathe, relax, contemplate, reflect, play, chat and spend quality time with family and friends, Eagles Nest 2 is perfect. With Mt Roland and a big wide sky as the grand backdrop view from all angles of the house, and with cathedral height windows celebrating every inch of the view, being inside and outside feels seamless. Eagles Nest is an experience. All the rooms are themed and the decor interestingly eclectic. The beds are very comfy. The place is clean. The kitchen has everything one needs. And then there's the outdoor spa (where you run your outdoor bath) tucked discreetly away for a relaxing soak. I think spectacular is the best word to describe the view and the night sky. We even saw a meteor shower from our bed which will be forever etched in my mind, with Mt Roland silhouetted in the background and a squillion million stars twinkling in the night sky (admittedly it was 4.30am - I'd woken to visit the bathroom - lucky timing!). So nice!

A beautiful quiet farm stay. Susan and Frank were a pleasure to deal with. An abundance of farm fresh eggs which we turned into the yummiest breakfast omelets. A beautiful garden setting.

Eagle Nest III is hands down the best Airbnb I’ve ever stayed at. The view is breathtaking, the rooms are beautiful, and the whole place feels like a dream come true. I was honestly amazed — didn’t expect to find a place this magical. The host was fabulous and gave super clear instructions. The outdoor hot tub is a must — easy to use and perfectly placed to soak in the stunning mountain views. The road to the unit is easy to access, and once you’re there, the peace and calm are unmatched. There’s a cozy fireplace with plenty of firewood, so no worries about keeping warm. Plus, the nearby farm animals (chickens, cows, bunny!) make the whole experience even more delightful. I left feeling refreshed, happy, and already thinking about my next visit. Highly, highly recommended! :)

This is the 2nd time we have stayed here and loved every minute of it! Jason was a great host. Thankyou!

We were all impressed with the presentation and cleanliness of the house. Heaps of kitchen utensils available, fantastic outlook from the balcony to watch the sunset! We would definitely stay again.

I had a fantastic stay! The room was spotless, Hannah was incredibly friendly, and the hot tub was top-notch.

Beautiful home! Great for nice long walks near the river. Huge park across the road. Overall, was a great place to stay. Yard photos didn’t match but it didn’t bother us very much as it’s winter and didn’t go outside very much 😂

Million Dollar views on the hilltop in Penguin, the house is a treasure trove of music history. Gerard has thought of everything, including breakfast supplies with fresh fruits and yoghurt. Thankyou for a beautiful stay in a lovely little quaint town. We will be back again :) Regards Mandy

The pictures and description don’t do this place justice! This place was simply perfect. An idyllic haven, the freshest air, skies full of stars, and the most clean, cozy and toasty cottage you could ever imagine. Alison was the most wonderful host - she went out of her way to make sure we had everything we wanted and needed, and she brought us to meet and feed all her lovely pet sheep, cows and dog. We had an amazing time here, thank you Alison!

It was such a delight having a few days getaway at Goat Island Bungalow. Katherine has provided a very comfortable, well equipped cottage to stay in. Direct access to the water and Goat Island is a bonus, stunning sunrises and even seeing/hearing the train at the bottom of the garden was a unique experience. Would highly recommend this accommodation to future guests. Thanks Katherine.

Our second visit here. Will return again, loved it.

This was our first time staying in Waratah. It is a beautiful part of Tasmania, being right on the edge of the amazing Tarkine and near the spectacular Cradle Mountain. And staying at Joanne’s place made it all worthwhile. Jo’s place is very modern and cosy. It has all the amenities you need, including emergency food supply if required (which you supplement if you use it). Jo’s place is in walking distance of the main street and you can go through the wetlands to see the platypus on the way. The local Bischoff Hotel serves good food, which Jo put us onto. Jo’s communication was very clear and helpful. We can highly recommend Jo’s place.

What a treat it was to stay in such a beautiful home, surrounded by treasures from the past. We will be back.

Crystal Cottage was an absolute delight! From the moment we arrived, we were captivated by its charm and cozy ambience. The attention to detail in the décor, the well-stocked amenities, and the warm hospitality made our stay truly special. The location was perfect—peaceful yet conveniently close to local attractions. Whether we were enjoying a cup of coffee on the charming front porch or unwinding in the beautifully designed interiors, every moment felt magical. The host was incredibly responsive and thoughtful, ensuring we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. We can’t wait to return! I highly recommend Crystal Cottage to anyone looking for a relaxing and memorable getaway.

The place was very nice, not far from Cradle Mountain, a very comfortable little chalet with additional heating, John is very kind, he explained to us very well how to access the accommodation (it's very simple) and the surrounding area despite our late arrival! Thank you John, I recommend!

We stayed for 3 nights and it was great. The location next to the river was beautiful. The cottage contained everything we could wish for and was very comfortable.

Will definitely stay at this place again, very nice property

This was a great base for exploring the Cradle Mountain area and surrounds. The kids were excited for this stop on our trip for the pool and it did not disappoint, a great highlight with a stunning view of Mt Roland sparkling at sunset. John was wonderful with suggestions of how to enjoy the property including helping with platypus spotting and accessing the silver mine. A great spot for families with so much to enjoy 😉

The cabin is set in a beautiful location, surrounded by bush and the impressive Mt Roland. We felt very comfortable in the lovely surroundings and also enjoyed a swim in the indoor pool. Would definitely recommend staying here.

The cabin was comfortable and situated in a beautiful environment, with lots of wildlife. John was very friendly. We had a great stay!
