    The peaceful location and spectacular river views. What makes this property stand out was the really friendly hosts. They were incredibly accessible, friendly and responsive. The house had so much character and lots of space.

Our properties are all absolute waterfront and have magnificent views of the River Derwent. They are very private, fully equipped and have well laid out spacious gardens. Parking on site is sufficient for two or more vehicles depending on the property and we are a short distance from Mona, Bonorong Park, the Derwent Valley, Hobart and other attractions.
John Harrison has degrees in science and economics and is a member of many organisations. What attracted John to Derwent retreat was the potential of the gardens!
