Breakfast was amazing. We even made it stretch so we could have a bacon toastie for lunch when out walking the fantastic nearby tracks. Gary also was very helpful in recommending places to eat and visit.

It was quiet, beautiful views. Lots of helpful recommendations on local spots to see and do. Very warm and comfortable. The sheep were cool. ;)
Loved the atmosphere and it was just what we needed. It was our first trip together now that our kids are grown. Fantastic overall.

Exceptional location, very comfortable cottage, great views, Tina the housekeeper was very helpful too.
The only disappointment was that the morning of our departure the weather was the most glorious of our stay making us even more sorry to leave!
Thank you Essentially Tas for your hospitality

We wanted a relaxing 2 days in a quiet location. That's exactly what we got, it was great. If we had wanted to go and visit local attractions, we were close enough to do that with a short drive.
The close proximity to the private beach and view over the bay was very peaceful.

This area and town are truly stunning.
This area and town are truly stunning. Beautiful views everywhere and the locals are so friendly. Whilst there make sure you visit the RSL - great food, views and very friendly people. Would visit again in a heartbeat. Its also a great spot to base yourself to visit other parts of the Huon Valley, such as Cygnet, Port Huon, Geeveston and the walks down south at Cockle Creek. Really special part of the world.

Nice little town to stay for a few days to visit the hot springs, Tahune Airwalk and wonder about by the beach. Great little pizza shop in town, as well as an IGA and a liquor store. Very relaxing place to stay. We stayed for 3 nights, it was the perfect length.

After a lovely scenic drive from Hobart, we arrived to comfortable accomodation in Dover. Nice little town, lovely beach and views over the water. Good IGA plus bottle shop, and a chemist.
We had a fab day exploring further south to Cockle Creek and Southport. Then Hartz Mountain on our way back to Hobart.
The location was superb being across the road from the beach and bay. We loved waking up to the sound of gentle waves and having such a beautiful view of Port Esperance Bay from the dining room...so relaxing. Castaway Cottage had everything we needed for a comfortable stay and being pet friendly our little Sheltie was able to enjoy too. We will definitely be returning to this gorgeous cottage to explore more of what Dover and its beautiful surrounds has to offer. Thanks so much.
Great location in Dover right on the waterfront as per the name. Alex met us on arrival to hand over keys he was very friendly .We were only there of one night to break up the driving.
We went for a lovely walk along the waterfront to the beach- stunning scenery
We also walked to the RSL club (15 min walk) for a wonderful meal
An absolute gem in Dover. Gary was fantastic, nothing was too much trouble. He made us picnic lunches to have down at the creek. What a wonderful setting. Fantastic platter with sushi etc. Wonderful meal that night as well, roast lamb, veggie terrine and wonderful desert, all home cooked by Gary. Will definitely stay there again.
Dover is such a beautiful Tasmanian town. Right on the water, it has stunning views, fresh air and wildlife. Gary was so welcoming, our room was clean and comfortable and breakfast was delicious! Gary also packed us some tasty lunch for our day trip! We 100% recommend Ashdowns of Dover as a lovely place to stay.
Gary was a fantastic host.
Keeps the place immaculate as the breakfast was absolutely beautiful. (Try the jams)
Gave us a detailed run down of local attractions and places to see and eat.
Had the fire outside ready to go and an amazing place to sit and watch the stars
10 stars from us.
Great location just a 3 minute walk to the beach. Good facilities, comfortable bed, kitchen with everything you need, very hot water in shower was welcome after a cold day, Netflix & Prime on the TV. The Dover RSL was a great option for dinner, just a 8 min walk away.
staff was super friendly and I asked if I could get a special patter made up for my husband birthday and wow what a platter
Breakfast was outstanding and George the orphan lamb was super cute
If ever in Dover again will definitely be staying here again
Awesome views across the bay from this well-equipped and spacious property.
Location was great. Perfect for exploring Cockle Creek and walking the South Cape walk.
Dover RSL was a very short walk for when we didn't feel like cooking.
Incredible views of the bay from the balcony and lounge. We were surprised to find a couple of added extras on arrival. The jacuzzi was an added bonus even on a rainy winters day. Will be back when next in Dover.
The location with view over the bay was fantastic. Easy walk to shops and eateries too. Bed and pillows were very comfy and though the weather was cold, we were nice and cosy in our unit.
Friendly hosts, a well-stocked mini bar that was reasonably priced and a lovely breakfast. The room was very comfortable and the location was a short stroll to everything in Dover.
