My husband Richard & I enjoy sharing this special property with its special tranquillity & serenity. We grew up in Queensland on the land - Cally on a 7,000 acre sheep property on the western Darling Downs that was very FLAT & Richard with 40,000 chickens. Richard was an Engineering Surveyor. Cally ran a successful catering business, deli & student accommodation in Brisbane & worked in employment, telecommunications & finance.

We fell in love with the wonderful sandstone homestead convict built around 1828 Rathmore House, cocooned in the tranquil Central Highland hills in the stunning Derwent Valley. Just one hour from Hobart it feels like it is "almost off the edge of the world". Almost derelict outbuildings were revived for our large family of six children & their partners & our six grandchildren to visit. Being so comfortable & exuding country rustic chic, we decided they were too nice not to share. Having been owned by one family for 150 years & never open to the public, we opened in 2017. Rathmore residents currently include 4 ducks - Jemina, Jackie, Jerry & Jelly & 2 calves - Henry & Hercules. You are welcome to help with the feeding.
