This property was awesome and quaint. The hotel needs a lot of repair and the water is not drinkable or I wasn’t even comfortable showering in it. There needs to be unlimited drinking water in each room-2 small bottles doesn’t cut it.

We stayed in two different accommodations here... one two-bedroom unit and a single queen (after my husband and his friend left for 3Capes trek) and both were just great. The water in this area around Pt Arthur is not potable city supply, but drawn from the lake, but this was problem at all-- we were supplied with loads of bottled water for drinking, brushing teeth, tea/coffee. The setting is lovely and... history! A character establishment. We had a wonderful dinner at the restaurant- fresh fish and boeuf bourgignon. Want to return! Thanks for a lovely stay.

We had a nice stay. The main building was not what I expected but overall it was ok. No breakfasts available which was a pain since there is not much around.

Had to use bottled water for drinking and brushing teeth. I wouldn't shower as the water as the colour of black tea. The kitchen and bathroom seriously requires upgrading.

The Fox and Hounds looked and sounded impressive but our stay was disappointing. The spare blanket had not been cleaned and folded, insects on the benches, dirt behind the door, non potable water so there was bottled water (water and milk were both frozen solid) and the shower water was brown. Another room was offered but we declined as we had already unpacked and were tired from traveling all day. For what we paid the room was not up to standard. I could just imagine what overseas tourists think.

Lovely old tudor style English Inn. Beautiful surroundings, lovely rooms. Friendly staff. Would be great if they supplied breakfast.. even toast and tea. (To keep in with the old english theme) Great that they supplied water, as tap water was not suitable for drinking. Even tho most people had cars...a shuttle bus down to the Historic site would have been fabulous....even @ $5 pp. Meals are quite expensive but so are other places in Tasmania.
