Craigow Vineyard is a picturesque 11 hectare vineyard at Cambridge in the Coal River Valley.The vineyard was established in 1989 and has already produced a number of Australia's top award winning wines. Current varieties are pinot noir, chardonnay, riesling, and gewurztraminer.The vineyard is part of the historic property of Craigow. An original workmans cottage has been converted into a cellar door outlet for wine tastings and sales; and is open at weekends from September to April as well as at other times by appointment.
Hugh delivered a wonderful cellar door tasting experience. It was extremely friendly, relaxed and personal. The sparkling merlot is on my wish list, but I happily took away a lovely Sav Blanc. Our group of four rated it one of the best cellar door experiences we've had. Thanks Hugh for your time and effort.

You must book to go to this fabulous cellar door, so do it now! Matt was relaxed, friendly and knew his wines intimately. The Pinot Noir was the highlight, no the Riesling was, no the Pinot ... oh, just get both! A must visit winery in the Coal Valley.

Loretta and Andy are so welcoming and friendly. Our overnight accommodation was tastefully presented, great queen size bed, lounge room and kitchenette, seperate loo and great bathroom, (including a bath) and shower. Andy made the BBQ available for me to cook our dinner. The breakfast was scrumptious and most generous including freshly baked bread, juice, home made jams plus fresh fruit and cereals. A fabulous cheese platter was presented to accompany pre dinner drinks. A wander around 2.5 hectares of vines with the grapes forming with some varieties not available anywhere else in the World. Minimal but efficient grape presses and some 20 barrels filled with several varieties of wine. Loretta gave us a personal tour with bottles under her arm for wine tasting along the way. All provided with passion and love accompanied by their Black Labrador, Archie. A must visit winery in the Coal River Vally and a wonderful place to stay. Richmond is a close 2 kilometre walk or drive. Nearly Tuscany.

Art that inspires you. Cultures that connect you. Stories that move you. The Tasmanian Museum and Art Gallery is a Tasmanian Government organisation. Entry to TMAG remains free, however bookings are now required.
Well worth a visit - just wished we'd had a bit more time as there was so much to see. The highlight was definitely The Thylacine Gallery on Level 1 - which contained some bones and fabulous old film of the now extinct Tasmanian Tiger. Also lots of interesting exhibits of Tasmanian Aboriginal culture.

What a great walk, up and down the streets, beautiful architecture, like stepping back in time. The house’s we’re stunning, very worthwhile if one is interested in this period of buildings.

Salamanca Market is one of Australia’s most vibrant and loved outdoor markets and is located at historic Salamanca Place, next to the Hobart waterfront. With over 300 stallholders, it’s an experience that’s hard to beat. While COVID-19 restrictions are in place, a smaller interim market will be held instead of the full Salamanca Market. Tasmania’s Own Market is a selection of your favourite Salamanca Market stallholders and is held each Saturday from 8.30 am to 1.30 pm. Our new look market consists of around 80 stallholders representing artisans, designers and producers - it’s as Tasmanian as we can make it. You will find fresh produce from local growers, hot coffee and delicious breakfast and lunch options to enjoy, lots of gift ideas and plenty of handmade products. Salamanca Market will return in full as soon as state government conditions allow.
The Salamanca Market is Tasmania's most visited tourist attractions and has won many awards for excellence.

We had perfect weather for our late morning visit - clear air, sunny and no wind - could really see for miles! Great for photography. Fabulous views down the Derwent and over Hobart. Some say better than Mt Wellington as closer and lower at 340m elevation. We took bus No.347 from the CBD and enjoyed the views as passengers en route. Had nice coffees at the cafe, friendly barister and fabulous views from our outside table. Good, informative signage and photos of the history of the signals station. If the weather is perfect and you can spare an extra hour or so, stay for lunch and continue to enjoy the million dollar views, like we did! PS an alternative, excellent view point close to the CBD is the Rosny Park Lookout.
