All three of us - including our dog - were made to feel very welcome. The room was clean and comfortable and the grounds are picturesque. Starting the day with a delicious cooked breakfast and ending the day with a craft beer and a netflix movie was an added bonus.

Company info

Glencoe Country Bed & Breakfast is hosted by Originally from Brisbane, Russell and Irene came to Tasmania for a two-week holiday. Like most mainlanders (what Tasmanians call people from mainland Australia), by the end of their holiday they had fallen in love with Tassie and made a decision to move here. Deciding on where to stay, they chose Cradle Mountain for its stunning beauty and endless activities. Russell and Irene purchased Glencoe in December 2016 and decided to do a fair bit of maintenance before reopening. The main changes can be found in the surrounding garden areas, as well as in the name change to Glencoe Country B&B. Initially, they were only going to have a few farm animals (like one to two), but the herd has grown significantly since then. They found the Highland cattle to be very gentle beasts – happy to interact and accept being hand-fed. Irene enjoys restoring Glencoe’s gardens to their former glory, and making sure the veggie garden is able to provide that genuine paddock to plate experience at your breakfast table. Irene is guilty of spoiling all the animals at Glencoe, where you will see her ducks, chickens (and cat) roam free around the gardens
