Set on the village green of historic Westbury and surrounded by 100-year-old European trees and hedges, Elm Wood is more like a home you return to than a bed and breakfast. With three suites in the Gothic-gabled Elm House, and the even more private Linden Cottage in the garden, this is an oasis of peace and tranquillity in what is already a very beautiful place.
Hosts Gil and Diana Stokes go to extraordinary lengths to make guests comfortable. The rooms all have king-size beds, fluffy bathrobes and elegant period furnishings, and there's the choice between the luxurious Oak Suite, with its separate drawing room and spa-equipped bathroom, or the Walnut and Chestnut Sunrise Suites upstairs. Along with the cottage, the names of each have special meaning taken from the trees nearby, which filter dappled sunlight from dawn until dusk.
Breakfast is a special occasion and may include King Island yoghurt, croissants or bread made in a wood-fired oven using a recipe with walnuts picked only metres away. Yum. Location: 35km or 25 minutes west of Launceston; 65km or 45 minutes southeast of Devonport. Map 11. HEMA RA 55 H2.
Facilities: Elm House: three suites and six bedrooms (maximum 10 guests), 3.5 bathrooms, guest lounge/dining with stereo. Linden Cottage: suitable for two guests plus an infant. All suites, rooms and the cottage feature king beds, gowns and slippers. Gourmet continental breakfast provided. Visit this property's website
