Prospect Country House & Restaurant

We enjoyed two wonderful nights at this unique and stunning accommodation. Booking was simple, and management made regular and timely communications with me prior to our arrival, to ensure all was on track. We were met by Daniel when we arrived, who gave us a tour of the beautiful and historic property, and shared some wonderful stories. We enjoyed two sumptuous and very tasty breakfasts, and ate on one night in the dining room. Dinner was fantastic, very tasty and of high quality. Since the hotel was fairly quiet where we were there - there was only one other guest - we were fussed over and made to feel really special, due to Daniel's and Kylie's attentive behaviour and genuine kindness and friendliness. The room was exceptional, spacious, bed very comfortable, and the rain shower was a joy. We loved the opportunity to wander around the grounds in all their spring glory. And on top of all that, we really appreciated the free visit to Pooley's winery for a tasting. The hotel sits just on the edge of the pretty, historic and interesting town of Richmond, and only 20 minutes from the airport. We are very glad we selected this place. It is well worth treating yourself.

We recently celebrated our 40 th wedding anniversary at Prospect House, Richmond , Tas. We enjoyed a couple of hours tasting magnificent Pooley wines at the winery across the road and then moved to PH for pre dinner drinks by the fire . We enjoyed a sumptuous 3 course dinner ( with more wines) and retired to our beautifully appointed bedroom suite whilst we could still walk straight ! Had a wonderful sleep and rose to enjoy a high quality brekkie looking over the lawns and gardens. As there were few other visitors , we got special treatment from the lovely Kalpanna (Kal) who was receptionist/ waitress/chef and kitchen hand for the night . It was a memorable experience , and one that we will repeat .

Being local and having dined at Prospect Country House on two previous occasions, we were well aware of the high calibre cuisine and service on offer. As in-house guests, we were treated to a whole new level of excellence. The room was very comfortable and well appointed. The bathroom was cleverly laid out. Toilet and shower were both complete with doors (we love shower doors so water doesn't flood the bathroom and drafts are kept out!), there was under floor heating and, unusually these days, plenty of towels on offer. Dinner was as outstanding as our previous meals and the Continental breakfast was also a treat with Chef Kalpana's house-made granola, yoghurt and stone fruit compote being the stand-outs for us! David looked after us beautifully on arrival and during dinner and Kylie was a lovely, bright presence at breakfast and on check out. If you want country beauty without being isolated, a wonderful blend of traditional Georgian style and contemporary comfort, fine dining without the pretention, a top notch wine list (the property is owned by Pooley Wines), warm, friendly hospitality and an opportunity to really feel spoiled, you really can't go wrong at Prospect Country House!

Fantastic quiet location with amazing in house dining

Great stay - lovely Georgian h House with most of the rooms in the old Stables section at the back. Rooms are beautifully fitted out with wonderful beds. Only suggestion would be a range of pillows - not all the same as they were a bit firm. Lovely toiletries. Breakfast is served in the kitchen/conservatory and is a a lovely buffet. Excellent coffee and staff are very attentive. We had dinner there as well - the food is very good and some lovely Pooley wines are available. Highly recommended.
