Family-friendly vacation rentals in Buckland

Absolutely stunning place and location! Nel and Lorne were amazing hosts and nothing was too much trouble. They had thought of all the little things to make us feel welcome and it truly felt like we were staying with friends…like a home away from home. We arrived to the smell of fresh bread baking, and found a loaf baking in the bread oven. Nel had even left us a jar of her homemade raspberry jam, which was to die for! We fell asleep every night to the sound of the waves which was absolutely magical and so peaceful. Our only regret is that we couldn’t stay longer! Would 100% recommend and would love to come back sometime!

Fantastic host, beautiful property, highly recommend 😊

Brian was a fantastic host and the home is just a beautiful environment to be in. A short walk away from Sandy Bay shops and beach. Would definitely recommend

A wonderful stay, the spa on the deck was particularly fun for our kids, and we loved the wood fire. Warm and cosy stay with beautiful views of the bay.

Beautiful equipped home which is just what I needed travelling with kids. Stairs were steep which didn't worry mine but maybe worth being mindful of for small children. So close to town, everything in walking distance and a great selection of food options very close. Never had a problem getting parking near the house for our car. Hosts reached out a few times to ask needs and preferences before we arrived and even let us know the place was ready earlier in the day than check in. Great experience.

This was the perfect Hobart home from home for a mid-winter stay. On previous trips to Hobart I've generally stayed in the Battery Point / Sandy Bay area, but I discovered on this trip that North Hobart is a delight - the Elizabeth St strip is a new fave. Would stay again without hesitation. The pictures don't do justice to how well and thoughtfully the house has been equipped, and the quality of fittings and furnishings. We were a group of 7, which normally would mean that at least a few people draw a short straw and have to take an inferior room, but this is one of those rare houses where ALL the bedrooms are lovely - and all have big, comfortable beds. There were even dressing gowns and slippers for everyone! The heating is super effective, the hot tub is a delight, the kitchen is large and well equipped, there's a coffee machine with plenty of pods, and Tom & Cate left various goodies for us as a welcome. They were also super responsive and flexible at all times. 5 stars!

Beautiful home and fantastic host! Super clean, elegant space with a very large kitchen, living space and incredibly comfortable bed. Scottie was extremely accommodating with both our 11pm check in and use of the spa under the stars. Always available to help, we felt right at home and loved feeding the sheep in the morning!

We absolutely adored our stay at this charming garden cottage in Glebe. It’s the perfect blend of cozy and quaint, with beautiful touches that made us feel instantly at home. Nestled in a quiet, leafy spot yet close to all the best Hobart has to offer, it was a peaceful and warm retreat after days of exploring. Our host was incredibly welcoming—sharing fascinating local history and giving us great recommendations for places to eat, shop, and explore. We especially loved hearing about the cottage’s past and how lovingly it’s been maintained. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a unique and heartfelt Tasmanian experience. Thank you!

We had a wonderful stay at Quarry Hill Lookout. The house was incredibly well-stocked, especially the kitchen, which had everything we needed and more. There were plenty of books and games that kept our family entertained throughout the trip. I especially enjoyed the coffee machine, which quickly became part of my morning routine and a calming start to each day. One thing that really stood out was the thoughtful placement of clear, specific instructions around the house. Whether it was using the fire heater or operating the coffee maker, everything was meticulously explained to make our stay easy and enjoyable. The indoor heating worked very well and kept us warm and comfortable. There was also a large area for parking, which made it very convenient. Nicola was a super friendly and thoughtful host who made us feel right at home. Highly recommended!

Lovely and clean, quite, private accommodation. It was great that our fur baby was allowed inside. Fresh lemons on the bench, which were nice in my tea and Ros was very easy to communicate with. We loved our stay and would recommend it to anyone.

A unique experience , Scott’s place is a wonderful peaceful getaway , surrounded by trees within a very short stroll to the beach . The floor to ceiling windows really make you feel like your emersed in the natural environment . The contemporary design , well stocked kitchen and facilities in general make for a very comfortable stay . The fabulous beach and easy reach of the Freycinet peninsula make this an ideal place to explore Tasmania’s incredible east coast . Watch the sunrise over the freycinet peaks then go for a morning dip , it doesn’t get much better .

This was such a beautiful place to stay. Mieke’s property is gorgeous, and we felt right at home in the Mountain Nest. Hard to believe you’re only 10min drive from the centre of Hobart! Thank you so much Mieke for hosting us and for being such a lovely host. We will be back 😊

We loved our stay at Peter’s place. Great water views and central to all the walking we wanted to do. Clean and comfortable with good heating. Hope to return one day.

We loved our stay. The house was well appointed and comfortable, the outdoor living areas were spacious with multiple zones to spread out and enjoy, and the gardens created lots of privacy and a peaceful relaxing environment. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Brooke's house, and hope to return sometime.

Sea House is such a magical place from the gardens to the views, beach access and the comfort of the house made our stay really wonderful and the balm we needed. Liz was gave great information before we arrived and was really responsive. Can’t wait to get back.

The house was well set out, clean and very welcoming. Loved the outdoor fireplace. Had all the essentials in the kitchen. Would gladly stay there again. beautiful place.

Great location for family or friends to get together. Literally walk out the door onto a beautiful beach. Plenty of outdoor amenities available incl swimming pool, tennis, basketball hoop, billiards, kayaks etc. Quiet and peaceful area, but close to airport and to Hobart so very convenient. Great communication from Julie in advance who also met us on arrival and showed us in. Thank you for a great stay.

Thanks a lot for your warmth and friendly welcome. We will come back again. Absolutely loved the experience.

We stayed for 3 nights and it was great. The location next to the river was beautiful. The cottage contained everything we could wish for and was very comfortable.

The stay was exactly what we wanted, cosy apartment for two with a bedroom each. The kitchen was everything we needed and extremely functional. The passcode entry was perfect as we didn’t need to worry about forgetting keys or making sure someone was always there when the other was out. Jodi and Lindsay were extremely responsive and conversations always felt personal as they were invested in why we travelled to Tasmania.

Perfection. Attention to detail- even in the kitchen…we had all the dishes and utensils necessary to cook like a chef at the house! There are even pantry items there- so check on that before running to the grocery store in town because we bought doubles in some things. I’m sure the selections in the pantry will vary. In addition, there may be garden produce ready for the picking!! Make sure and check with the host first- that will be seasonal, I’m sure. Beds are comfortable, showers have hot water, tub with jets is helpful after a day of sight-seeing. As owner notes, it isn’t hot, just warm…but it was still a good experience. Decks overlook bay/ocean- you get to witness the changing colors of the Hazards throughout the day standing over the bay. And if you are wondering- we saw amazing Aurora lights out over the water! Windows everywhere! Just incredible’views- there are no words. And you boy minutes from Swansea. Host has a book with restaurant suggestions. Grocery.❤️

Jodi's apartment is at the best location, vrry close to a great cafe, grocery stores, bus stop and moonah shops. Best thing is private car parking which is hard to find with other air bnb places. You can view beautiful mount Wellington from the bedrooms, and living room gets cozy by sunshine during the day. Jodi was kind enough to give us quick tour of the house on checking-in, and also let us stay an extra hour before checking out. Thank you Jodi for letting us stay at your lovely place.

Fantastic place to stay. pool is great. having a complimentary car is the best seats 8! perfect for my large family.
