You couldn’t ask for a nicer stay, or nicer hosts than at Graces View! The view, the location, the lovely extra touches such as freshly baked bread and yogurt pots, the sparkling clean space, the incredibly comfy bed…this really is a special hideaway! Freda and Aaron are both lovely, generous people and put a lot of work into making your stay extra special (if you’re lucky, you might even get to meet their adorable pup Molly). The location couldn’t be better – it’s a very short drive down into Cygnet or up to Huonville, partly via a spectacular drive along the bay. Also, if you’re looking for tips on what to do or where to eat nearby, Freda and Aaron have you covered! If you’re looking to stay in Huon Valley and need a central, cosy and friendly place to stay, then this is definitely it!!

Freda’s place was perfect for the 2 of us seeking a small sanctuary. The space is spotlessly clean, comfortable and stylish. The breakfast tray is a thoughtful and delicious addition. Freda was very attentive to our needs. Thanks for having us Freda. Your place stood out among the other local offerings.

A beautiful and quiet space with our own deck and amazing views. Freda and Aaron’s hospitality was very generous and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The daily breakfast provisions are scrumptious. In close proximity to Fat Pig Farm where we enjoyed a wonderful afternoon. Highly recommend Grace’s View!

Quiet, relaxing, beautiful property

My husband and I chose to stay at Graces View to celebrate our anniversary with a relaxing weekend away in the Huon Valley. Our stay was absolutely perfect. The view is amazing, a lovely quiet street with no traffic noise was ideal for relaxing. A short drive into Cygnet for some great eating spots was a great day trip. The room is just a nice size with a beautiful balcony to enjoy the tasty breakfast that Freda prepared for us each morning. She is a caring and thoughtful host, made us feel comfortable and welcome. Would stay here again anytime. Thanks Freda.

Thanks Freda and Aaron! What a beautiful little spot!! The view, the birds singing, the lovely decor you have chosen and the home-made touches. We’ve had a blissful night and morning feeling very relaxed and recharged. The room was spotlessly clean with lovely home made breakie supplies and great information about the studio and what to see in the surrounds. Freda and Aaron are very nice hosts and a pleasure to meet. Couldn’t fault it. Thank you. Will happily recommend.

Stay here. The view, the space, the hospitality. All spectacular.

Graces view is a beautiful, modern, stylish and super clean apartment well suited to couples and located close to all there is to offer on the Huon Valley.

Lovely studio with a great view and excellent hosts. Exceptionally clean and tidy with lots of extras that were appreciated. Hoping to stay again some time.

Freda’s place was perfectly as described in a beautiful location. We loved the homemade breakfast and peaceful surrounds. Wish we could have stayed longer! Bed and linen very luxurious.

Dear Freda and Aaron,

You both truly are memory makers!

I’m truly trying to think of one place I’ve stayed that has offered me such stillness and relaxation – it’s like the calming energy just hit me as soon as I walked in the door. Freda, in the short time I spoke with you – you are a fabulous host and this made my stay all the more enjoyable. Just even down to the little things, like vegemite in the cupboard – my stay here has been amazing.

Look forward to staying again soon!

Absolute Gem ! Beautifully decorated, exceptionally clean and very convenient. We loved it so much we could move in! The views are incredible and we loved sitting by the huge window as we ate breakfast, looking out across the bay. Lovely comfortable bed was a highlight – best nights sleep on the whole trip! We loved the breakfast trays filled with local produce for breakfast, that was a real treat! Thank you Freda & Aaron, we will be back again for sure!

This is a spectacular vacation spot. The room was incredibly clean, comfortable and well appointed with one of the most beautiful and peaceful views I’ve ever seen. Unlike some other B & B’s this one has quality linen, towels, pillows and furnishings. Freda was warm and welcoming. Her styling is spot on and her baking skills were very appreciated – there’s nothing quite like home made bread in the morning. Would highly recommend to all my family and friends and we will definitely be back!

Amber and Arthur – Sydney


We thought this was 5 star, from the greeting by Freda, the studio, the views and the weather as also perfect. This valley is beautiful with all the different bays. An absolute must on a visit to Tasmania.

Colin and Yvonne – NSW


Grace’s view was excellent. Clean, stylish, cozy and very comfortable with an amazing view. The fresh home made bread and the yoghurt/muesli breakfast were delicious. Freda was very welcoming and proud to share information about the area. I highly recommend staying at Grace’s view.

Shannon – Qld


5 Stars for every category! This getaway location and accommodation is just perfect. Lovely hosts who have thought of everything. The fresh bread and muffins on arrival along with the breakfast supplies are spot on. Can’t wait to come back and stay again. Thanks

When I was looking for an BnB in the Cygnet area, ‘Graces View’ caught my eye – the photos of the view and studio room were stunning. We certainly weren’t disappointed on arrival as the room, just like the photos, was perfect. Freda was an amazing host, who made us feel incredibly welcome and provided us with freshly baked sourdough and yoghurt/muesli pots on arrival for the next day’s breakfast (which my husband said was ‘the best yoghurt dish he has ever had’).

The studio room was very private, cosy and clean, as well as being well equipped with everything you needed (plus more). We were very disappointed that we were only in the area for a short time, as we would have happily stayed for a week or two. We will certainly be back! Thank you again Freda for making our stay a real treat!

Jessica and Ben – Hobart


Stunning on all accounts. We had the most brilliant and relaxing time, made all the more lovely with freshly baked bread from Freda on both mornings (along with delicious breakfast provisions, like fresh yogurt!)

We had a great time and can highly recommend for anyone wanting to explore Cygnet.

Lauren and Dan – Melbourne


We had a very enjoyable stay at Graces View. Freda was there to greet us as we drove in. She provided a freshly baked loaf of sourdough as well as some delicious Chia puddings to have for breakfast the following morning.

The view from the room is breathtaking, and we agree with other comments that the photos don’t do it justice! I won’t have any hesitation in recommending Graces View to our friends. Thanks for having us!

Jordan and Shona – Tasmania


Wish there were six stars for each category because Freda’s place was nothing short of outstanding! The pics simply don’t do this place justice — my wife was thrilled with the view and cosy room. We’d highly recommend it to anyone wanting a relaxing and romantic getaway.

Freda is clearly a proud Huon Valley local. On arrival, Freda had baked us fresh sourdough straight from the oven and supplied us with small pots of local bush honey and jam — a wonderful touch and our first taste of some of the Huon’s fantastic produce. The fridge was also stocked with fresh apple juice, local milk and butter. She even brought us muesli and local yoghurt for breakfast each morning! Bed was wonderfully comfy too!

Simon and Vivian – Sydney


This private space was beautifully decorated in simple tasteful decor and it has spectacular views over Cygnet to the water and the mountains beyond. We really enjoyed our stay. I especially liked sheep in the paddock next door and visiting wallabies.

Sue and Ari – Sydney


Freda and Aaron were absolutely brilliant hosts. Upon entry to our room, we barely noticed the beautifully styled interior as we were mesmerised by the breathtaking views of Glaziers Bay and the surrounding countryside.

When we could tear our eyes away from the view, we were pleased to see that the room looked even better than the photographs. The bed was extremely comfortable, the breakfast provisions were great (including homemade sourdough) and we would definitely stay here again.

Brenda and Greg – Brisbane


The accommodation at Grace’s view was second to none. Everything was well thought out, spotless and very comfortable. The beauty of the view was indescribable and we thoroughly enjoyed our time staying there!

Thank you to Freda and Aaron for the effort you put into making our stay as pleasant as it could be. Amazing place to stay! Will definitely be back again!

Lucy and Tris – Gippsland Victoria


A lovely spot. Words can’t quite describe the view. Spacious, well appointed studio with great little private deck. Very generous breakfast and other provisions.

Hosts very warm, welcoming and conscientious of privacy. Wish we spent more than the two nights.

Lenny and Demelda – Victoria


Freda had a beautiful home she makes you feel so welcome, our private studio room has the most amazing views just stunning I would highly recommend this B&B.

Marita and Jeff – NSW


Freda is running a beautiful accommodation. If you are looking for a tranquil, scenic, friendly, private and well presented place to stay in the Huon Valley then we would highly recommend Freda’s place. We had a wonderful time staying there!

Amy and Adrian – Melbourne


The best B&B so far ! Fabulous people, beautiful views and accommodation to match . What a shame it was our last night in Tassie otherwise we may have moved in !!

We will be back for sure as there is so much more to see and what a great base to see it from ! Thanks so much again and the best of British luck as they say !!!

Nigel and Angela – NSW


All modern conveniences from wi-fi to aircon in a room so well designed to maximise on the view across the rolling slopes down to the Huon River. Faces west so you can lie in bed and watch the sunset.

Home made sourdough bread and chia cups for breakfast were a delight before we enjoyed 3 days imbibing the music and community at the Cygnet Folk Festival 2017. (we don’t like camping!) Everything is 5 star from the chemical free shampoo, conditioner and soap to the whole look and feel of our room.

Our ceramic and graphic designer hosts have created a wonderful hideaway with human warmth that made it a home away from home. Best place we have stayed in over years attending the Festival.

Alan and Lois – Hobart


Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful! Such a beautiful space, inside and outside. A new and very comfortable and lovely room with all the amenities including some home baked bread and other treats.

The view is to ‘Live’ for! I have not seen a more expansive and beautiful view in all of Tasmania. Freda and Aaron were so welcoming and friendly – they are just beautiful people, so happy to have met them. I will be back to this very special place. Thank you! Highly recommended.

Steven and Gyanna – NSW


Warm and kind welcome and provided some refreshments and snacks. Breakfast every morning was lovely and any questions or suggestions re the area and surrounds were answered helpfully. Accommodation and views were perfect.

Caroline and Mathew – Brisbane


Freda’s studio truly is amazing … the views, the comfort, the details … everything was perfect for a little getaway. Loved the breakfast provisions and the bed might be the comfiest bed I’ve ever slept in … would definitely recommend for anyone trying to get out of Hobart for a bit!

Hugo and Hannah – North America


Wonderful stay in an idyllic location. Attention to detail is evident. The host has obvious pride. Absolutely beautiful breakfasts – homemade bread and chia pots were the best. Gorgeous view across the Huon River to the hills beyond, excellent sunsets too. Extremely clean. Would love to return.

Kristina and Michael – New Zealand


We spent Christmas Eve in this awesome studio and had a wonderful time. The view is amazing and so was everything else! Freda and Aaron are a lovely couple, very friendly and helpful. They did their best for us to enjoy our time there and it was a success! Thank you again!
