Woolmers Estate Longford Tasmania

Woolmers Estate is a unique and fascinating reflection of colonial life in Tasmania and is one of the most historically significant heritage properties in Australia.

Today Woolmers Estate continues to display colonial life in its most genuine shape and gives an accurate depiction of Tasmanian heritage, preserved and maintained in an original and authentic setting.

Time stands still at Woolmers Estate, wander around and soak up the essence of 19th century Tasmanian life on a once working farm estate. Explore the many convict built outbuildings that still remain on the property such as, The Wool and Apple Packing Sheds, Coach House and Farm Stables, Blacksmiths and Settlers Cottages accommodation.

Self Contained Accommodation

Live this heritage with a stay in one of our boutique cottages and relax in front of a cosy log fire whilst enjoying some of Tasmania's fine local wines and cuisine.

The cottages were convict built in the 1840s and sleep from two to six people comfortably. When the estate was working they were home to the trades people and have been restored sympathetically. Their uniqueness, overlooking the meandering Macquarie River, treed farming land and the misty mountain background creates a unique experience for visitors. Currently our cottage rates start from $145.00 per cottage per night (maximum of 2 adults).
