“If you like to sleep bring earplugs.”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 November 2010

Check-in was very friendly the service at reception was very helpful.
It was a bit of a shock when we saw the size of the 5 berth cabin, lets say we saw a lot of Hobart and a little of Elwick during the day. The cabin we had should not be advertised to sleep 5( in our case 2 adults and three kids under 10), in the owners defence they did offer me a villa when booking but who doesn't want to try and keep costs down when travelling. Dogs over the fence start barking from 1-3am and then the starlings in the roof space go to work at about 5am to feed their precious young fledglings, so my advice is go to bed early, or bring earplugs and listen to your heart beating all night. It just felt the location for this place was wrong - it was kind of land locked in suburbia-a holiday park should have a lot more room between itself and the neighbours. The Chux you use to wash your dishes is recyled - how many times do you have to wash a Chux before it loses its blue colour? The kids "play" area was a health hazard, broken wood boards on the play house floor with exposed nails,and play equipment on unlevel ground. I enjoyed the walk to the laundry to use the communal ironing board and iron. What does it cost to put an iron in each cabin. If you use the BBQ you have to clean it after use- fair enough- but there's nothing to clean it with!- no paper towel or sink nearby- a used Chux and half a pot scourer wont cut it I'm afraid.The place just looks really tired. I dont have super high expectations when i stay in Holiday parks and I'm not a snob, but i think the owners really need to reinvest some of their takings back into their business before they get any more of mine.

“Would not stay here again!”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 October 2010 via mobile

This place really needs a face lift! The standard family cabin is small and very dated. The freeway next to the park means you hear traffic all threw the night too. However the owners are nice and helpfull, and the toys in the room are a great idea. But would not stay here again

“Quiet, clean, comfortable & secure self contained cabins”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 October 2009

Elwick was far enough out of Hobart to be peaceful, yet close enough to all the tourist attractions to have the best of both worlds. We stayed here for the first 4 nights of our Tassie holiday, and we were very comfortable. The bedrooms and shower were a bit cramped, but otherwise, we were very happy with the Elwick cabins.

“Would definitely stay there again”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 October 2009

I was extremely pleased with Elwick Cabins. Everything was clean in our accommodation and the gardens were lovely. I was impressed with the children's play area. My main gripe would be finding the entry, it's a tricky one because it's on a service road and you have to drive down some back streets to get in (this was not mentioned in the information we were given, we just had the address and drove past the place three times, trying to find a way to get in).

It's not in the heart of the city and let's face it, some of the surrounding houses are dumpy but we had no problem with noise levels. It's a short drive to get in to the heart of Hobart but big deal, I'd much prefer staying here again and having my own cooking facilities and gardens than stay in a hotel in the heart of Hobart.

I would definitely go back again!
