Dolphin Lookout Cottage sets new bar in BNB.

Beautifully positioned for the great views and privacy this 'cottage' is surprisingly spacious and supplied with every basic and many special needs for a very comfortable stay. We've owned our own BNB at Eaglehawk Neck and know what is involved. Kim has done a great job with her attention to detail. We'll be back.

Great location and property

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Very relaxed location and property in a lovely spot. Little 1 percenters like a supply of decent coffee and quality kitchen items make a difference.

Fantastic stay!

Our group of four had a thoroughly enjoyable stay for 2 nights at Dolphin Cottage. We were all sorry we couldn't stay longer! The Cottage has everything you could need and a lovely view over Binalong Bay. Highly recommend the trail around to Dora Point as a run or walk..

Nice place - great view!

Glorious view from the cottage (the warm, sunny weather sure helped!) and going to sleep with the sound of the clear blue waves hitting the sparkling white sand, what more could you want! Dolphin Lookout Cottage has everything you need for a restful holiday.

The best view ever.

The best position in a beautiful part of North East Tasmania, and a comfortable cottage to see it from. What more could you ask for? Dolphin Lookout is great.

A Home away from Home!

We only spent two nights at Dolphin Cottage but thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The cottage has amazing views, comfortable beds, fully stocked kitchen with thoughtful extras. It's a lovely quiet location where you can sit back and enjoy the beauty of nature. A superb restaurant is just below the property to spoil you if you choose to avoid cooking while on holiday!

Lovely, clean and well fitted out. This was our second stay here. Some of the furniture is getting a little rickety but cannot beat this spot. Lovely.

Amazing views!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the cottage. It had everything we needed for a comfortable and relaxed stay. Quiet and peaceful! The view from the living area, masterbed room and especially the deck was stunning! A very easy walk to the beach and a short drive to St Helens. It was wonderful to have the electric blankets on the beds as it got very cool on one of the nights. We would definitely recommend Dolphin Lookout Cottage to anyone!

Just Awsome

This was by far the best place we have ever stayed in. The views from the balcony were breathtaking, just magic, loved it, never wanted to leave. The place itself was spotless and the beds were very comfortable. Jan was very helpful with directions and tips on what to expect with regards mobile coverage on the east coast. All in all we had a magic stay.

PERFECT

My sister, my 83 year old mother and I stayed at Dolphin Lookout for a couple of days and honestly, we all wished it had been for a week! Superb location, great accomodation (everything we needed, well laid out and accessible for an elderly person) and really friendly management and locals. We had a ball and will be returning.

A wonderful Easter break

This property was the perfect place to stay over the Easter long weekend with our friends. The perfect amount of space for two young children to run around (and enjoy an Easter egg hunt!) and a safe deck area with the most amazing view. A wonderful location with a close walk to the beach.
