So, pack those treats and toys — here’s our curated list of the best dog-friendly accommodation in Tasmania.
Stillwater Seven — Suite 7

Arrow Brick House
Two-bedroom cabin Arrow Brick House feels secluded on its 12 acres of land, but is handily located just five minutes from the Port Arthur Historic Site (and the Three Capes Walk). Named for its use of original convict-made bricks around the fireplace, the space is cosy in winter and, with its outdoor hot tub and beanbags, equally inviting in the warmer months.
Your four-legged bestie is more than welcome, with the yard fully fenced to keep your dog and the local wildlife safe. Kick back on the deck with your pup by your side and enjoy the sweeping views of Cape Raoul in the distance.

Brickendon Estate
UNESCO-listed property Brickendon Estate is just 20 minutes from Launceston, but you’ll feel like you’ve stepped back centuries in time when you visit. Run by the seventh generation of original owners, the Archer family, the property is rich in convict history, complete with an 1820s farm village with chapel, blacksmith’s shop, cookhouse and barns.
There are several accommodation options, including three convict-built cottages and three newer builds made from recycled timber — and some of these happen to be dog-friendly accommodation (make sure you enquire when booking!). Leash up your pup to explore the grounds and heritage gardens, or take the beautiful country walk to the neighbouring Woolmers Estate.

The Top Paddock
For a glorious off-grid glamping experience in the Tassie bush, give the Top Paddock a whirl. Situated on 20 acres of land in the north-west of the state, this perfectly private dog-friendly accommodation might see your pooch meeting some inquisitive sheep and goats for the first time, since more often than not they do wander up to the stargazer yurt for a sticky beak.
With a comfy queen bed and wood fire, the Top Paddock is perfectly cosy as the sun goes down. Your dog will love curling up next to the wood fire in winter or flopping down next to you as you enjoy an outdoor bath in the warmer months.

Dune Shack
This lovingly renovated two-bedroom shack has sweeping views of Storm Bay and Bruny Island, direct beach access, a fire pit, a fully-stocked kitchen and an outdoor shower for washing the sand off yourself and your adventurous pooch. There’s a hammock outside for peak relaxation and even yoga mats if you want to really salute the sun. It’s also a short drive to heaps of local walks around the Tasman Peninsula as well as Port Arthur.

This three-bedroom, dog-friendly, renovated 1950s beach shack is perfectly situated in Alonnah, making it an ideal central base for exploring Bruny Island with your four-legged friend.
