Stay at Old Wetmore
Step into the story of Old Wetmore - a beautifully preserved 1824 sandstone homestead, lovingly reimagined for modern comfort. Nestled on a working sheep farm just ten minutes south of historic Ross, it offers a rare blend of heritage charm and refined country living. With sweeping rural views from every window and cafés only a short drive away, Wetmore is the perfect pause between Hobart and Launceston. Accommodating up to 8 guests across 4 elegant bedrooms, it’s where quiet luxury meets timeless Tasmanian landscape.
Old Wetmore offers a rare kind of Tasmanian escape — where comfort meets countryside, and your stay feels more like visiting a friend’s thoughtfully kept homestead than a typical B&B. With wide open skies, paddocks stretching in every direction, and the gentle presence of peacocks roaming nearby, it’s a place that invites you to truly slow down.
Step outside and there’s room to breathe — whether it’s a quiet morning coffee on the verandah, practicing your casting on the dam, or a short drive to the renowned fly fishing waters of the Macquarie River. Nature isn’t curated here — it’s lived with. Kangaroos pass through. Sunsets linger. The rhythm of the land continues, as it has for generations.
Inside, the house is generous, warm and welcoming — full of solid timber, stone, and subtle touches of luxury that speak of time well spent. Each space holds its own charm, designed to make you feel at ease the moment you arrive.
For travellers seeking more than a place to sleep — for those wanting something real, beautiful, and quietly special — Old Wetmore offers a different kind of stay.
The kind of quiet that holds you...
