It has been quite a week at Woolmers Estate and we are feeling very grateful.

Earlier this week we shared that we are finalists in three categories at the 2026 Tasmanian Tourism Awards. We have now also learnt that our heritage accommodation has been included on the Star Ratings Australia 2026 Gold List of Australian Accommodation for Tasmania, Self Catering.

The Gold List is based on guest reviews, so thank you to everyone who has spent a night here and taken the time to share their experience. Your feedback means a great deal to our team.

Each guest who stays with us becomes part of the estate’s story, even if only for a night or two. Whether it is a Devonshire tea on arrival, a quiet wander through the estate after the gates close or breakfast before the day begins, we hope every stay feels special and we will keep working to make each visit one to remember.

Wake in your own private hedge-lined garden retreat to the fragrance of thousands of roses drifting on the morning air from the Rose Garden just a short stroll away, your crackling wood fire from the night before still glowing as the day begins.

As the most spacious of Woolmers Estate's six heritage cottages, Groom's cottage sleeps up to six guests across three bedrooms over two levels, giving everyone their own room while sharing one living space together.

Settle in with a Devonshire tea, then wander the UNESCO World Heritage estate after hours, when the day visitors have gone and nearly 200 years of history is yours to explore together. A continental breakfast is included to start your morning

Every Drop, Tasmanian, at the Rose Garden Café 🌹

The best drinks come from close to home. Almost everything we pour is grown, brewed, distilled or blended by a Tasmanian maker we know by name. That means fresher flavours, shorter journeys from maker to glass, and support that stays close to the community that makes Woolmers what it is.

Meet the makers:

☕ COFFEE & TEA
- Ritual Coffee, Launceston: small-batch roasting since 2009, just twenty minutes from our front door.
- The Tea Equation, Launceston: blended from local crops, including leaves grown on a Huon Valley estate.

🍏 CIDERS & JUICES
- Spreyton Fresh, Mersey Valley: five generations have farmed this one orchard, and every c***r, juice and soft drink is grown, pressed and brewed on the family property.

🌹 GIN
- Turner Stillhouse, Tamar Valley: our Woolmers Blend Gin is distilled with fresh roses cut from the estate's Rose Garden. It began as a Festival of Roses collaboration and is now on the menu year-round.

🍷 W**E & SPARKLING
- Bell & Gong, Longford: grown minutes down the road at Valleyfield. Their Flying Mile Pinot Noir is named for the motor racing circuit that once ran through Longford.
- Josef Chromy, Tamar Valley: traditional-method sparkling, including the Distant South cuvée poured here.
- House of Arras, Pipers River: led by w**emaker Ed Carr since 1995 and made using the traditional method from Pipers River fruit.

Rose Garden Café is in the Nigel Peck Centre at Woolmers Estate, open daily from 8am to 4pm. No ticket is required.

Every spring the Mt Fuji cherries put on a show, and every spring it's over far too quickly. 🌸 Right now the branches are heavy with white blossom and buzzing with bees. Come and see them before the petals start to fall.

Tomorrow is the last day to get Early Bird tickets to the Festival of Roses. Tickets are $10 until midnight Wednesday, then $15 general admission.

Our garden walks and talks are also filling fast, with only 46 places remaining. Join our gardeners on Sunday 22 November as they share the stories behind the expansive Rose Garden at the height of its bloom, then wander freely among more than 3,000 roses, explore the grounds of all 18 original heritage buildings and follow the Market Trail through the estate.

Book your Early Bird tickets before the price goes up and add a garden walk and talk while places last.

Set for dinner since 1843.

A three-piece tureen, pale blue and gold, still sitting on the table it was bought for. It's part of a 25-place-setting dinner service made by Flight, Barr & Barr, one of England's finest porcelain makers and the Worcester firm that later became Royal Worcester. It has stayed with the house through six generations of the Archer family.
