We first visited Hobart on a 2 week stay in 2022 and we loved our trip. We loved it so much we cruised back there in April this year and we now have a 4 day weekend planned in just a months time.
This time it will be winter so we are excited to see just how cold it is down that end of the country and how the place changes with the seasons.
I thought I would share what we are planning to get up to while we are there for this short visit (not as short as our last visit - 1 day in Hobart and 1 day in Port Arthur).
Day 1 (Friday)
We arrive at 10am and head to pick up our hire car at 11.
Lunch at Wicked Cheese and then onto Richmond (if time permits).
An afternoon Distillery tasting and tour at Spring Bay Distillery, Cambridge (this is perfect for us because it covers both gin and whiskey) 2pm.
Check in to our accommodation at 4pm (we are staying at Wyndham Seven Mile Beach).
Dinner at Barilla Bay Oysters at 6.30pm.
Day 2 (Saturday)
8.30am Salamanca Markets, then onto Willie Smiths artisan markets.
Lunch at Willie Smiths Appleshed 1pm.
A drive up Mount Wellington (this will be weather dependent).
Dinner at Rockwall in Hobart. This will be an off season 4 course set menu of local Tasmanian produce.
Day 3 (Sunday)
Richmond Bakery for breakfast
Ross (we will probably buy a vanilla slice which the town is well known for)
Oatlands - to complete the walking trail around the town and visit the Callington Mill Distillery (again, whiskey and gin). Lunch at the pub if we are not too full!
Richmond - the pub for dinner (again if we are hungry)
Day 4 (Monday)
We don't have time for much today so we will head to The Margate Train for their delicious breakfast and maybe a stop for a walk around Hobart waterfront.
12pm Drop our car back
2pm is our flight home.
