The property was booked because it was 2 doors from our home where we held a family reunion for family living interstate and internationally. Those staying in Amberley loved every aspect of the property and it will be our go to property when we next have a family reunion.

Such a beautiful property. The house was so welcoming it immediately felt like home. We were a group of four ladies and the home catered beautifully for us. The beds were so comfortable and the bedding was luxurious. In a prime location in Sandy Bay, close to many lovely cafes and restaurants as well as supermarkets and the Hop On Hop Off bus stop. The weather wasn’t great, but it was so warm in the house and on our last day we could see Mt Wellington from the living room window. Lisa was so easy to deal with and responded quickly to any questions.

Beautiful house

House is really lovely and in a great location. Plenty of food options within a 5 minute walk, plus Coles, Woolies etc and we were able to walk into Hobart. All the rooms were large so even with 7 adults, didn’t feel squashed in together. Very pretty location and roses were still in bloom.

The house is stunning and in a fantastic location to walk into Salamanca Markets, Hobart restaurants and local pub and eateries. Lisa was amazing and sending texts to give all the information needed and checking to see if all was okay. We all agreed when we come back to Hobart, Amberley will be where we will stay. Thank you Lisa for your wonderful hospitality and for allowing us to stay in your beautiful home.

Simply perfect

Amberley is the perfect place to stay in Hobart for a group of friends (like us) or a family. Communication, tips and instructions from Lisa were excellent. The house itself is a dream - so comfortable, clean, well-appointed, and has everything you'll need. It's also brilliantly located. We walked to the market, wharf and restaurants easily, and the supermarket, coffee shops and restaurants are just around the corner. Highly recommend.

Stunning house, great location

We only had a long weekend in Hobart and chose to eat in on one night so we could enjoy the beautiful house. The property is lovely and in a great location near delicious restaurants and cafes. It was a girls weekend with 7 of us and 3 had a room to themselves due to the 5 bedrooms. 3 toilets was a bonus and the kitchen was so clean and very well appointed. Would absolutely recommend anyone staying here. Lisa was so amazing with communication, recommendations to restaurants etc and happy to chat. Thanks so much Lisa

Home away from home

Thankyou Lisa for letting us stay in your beautiful historic home so conveniently located. The beds were superb, the house so fabulous in it provided everything we needed and more. ( thank you for the Easter eggs). We had a delicious dinner at nearby me wah, a great Chinese restaurant just around the corner. We loved the quaint houses in the area with interesting walks around battery point, and walking distance to Salamanca for the keen walkers. We loved it all. Thank you

We recently had the most wonderful weekend away in this amazing house, family of 3 adult couples. Great off street, safe parking. Excellent communication with Lisa the owner. Easy check in process, bonus to be able to check-in early. Thank you for the bottle of red wine. Beautifully renovated home in a fantastic location. Easy walking for us to Battery point, Salamanca and shops at Sandy Bay. Quiet at night. Beds and linen so comfortable and rooms cosy with excellent heating provided. Spacious living areas and kitchen, pod coffee machine excellent. Bathrooms beautiful, showers hot, bonus to have 3 toilets.

About the host

Hosted by Lisa Lynch

Host profile image
I am an enthusiastic host who has lived in Hobart all my life. I have very strong connections developed over thirty years with the Tasmanian wine, food and tourist scene.

I love travelling, gardening and keeping fit.

Adventures have included Annapurna Base Camp, trekking in the north of Vietnam, walking in Southern Italy, safari in Botswana and volunteering with my daughter in Cambodia. Other more relaxing excursions have been touring Northern India, time in Southern France. In Covid times I have taken the opportunity to re-visit many favourite spots around Tasmanian and some new locations e.g. Flinders Island.

I love returning to our city Hobart of only 200,000 people but has everything that larger cities have under the magnificent shadow of Mount Wellington and set on the picturesque Derwent River.

I cannot live without my family, dachshund puppy (Lily), and to relax most evenings with a great meal and a glass of Tasmanian Pinot.
