Peck's on Pine

Peck's on Pine is a restored one-bedroom Victorian cottage at 25 Pine Street in West Hobart, a quiet heritage street a short walk below the CBD. It is a self-contained stay that takes dogs inside the cottage, which makes it one of the few genuinely indoor-dog options this close to central Hobart. Sleeping up to two guests, it suits couples travelling with a dog who want a walkable base rather than a resort-style park.

Dogs at the Peck's on Pine

Dogs are allowed inside the cottage. Listings describe a fully enclosed, private courtyard at the rear where the dog can sit out safely, and note that pets are not permitted on the beds or furniture, so pack a throw and your dog's own bedding. No separate pet fee or weight limit is published anywhere reliable, which usually means any pet charge is folded into the tariff or agreed with the host, so confirm both points when you book. Bowls and food are not guaranteed to be supplied either.

The vibe

This is a period cottage, not an apartment fit-out: exposed brick, traditional features and a small footprint. Pine Street itself is narrow and leafy, with street parking out front that can be tight at peak times. The outdoor space is modest, so think of it as an urban walking base rather than a backyard run.

Getting there and out with the dog

The big draw is Knocklofty Reserve, reached up Forest Road: around 140 hectares of bushland with marked trails and a mix of on-lead and time-shared off-lead areas under the City of Hobart's rules, so check the current schedule before unclipping. Back at street level, the Hill Street cafe strip has footpath tables where a well-settled dog can lie under the table for a morning coffee.

While you're out there

The Knocklofty summit loop starts effectively on your doorstep and earns you the city view before breakfast. For an indoor-dog counterpart across the river, Milkmans Cottage works as an alternate Hobart base, and Brewwich is a casual stop between the two.

Confirm any pet fee, weight limit and courtyard access with the host at booking, and bring your dog's bed, bowls and food. See more pet friendly stays in TAS or plan around West Hobart.

Max: Bring your dog's own bed. The cottage rule keeps pets off the furniture, and a familiar bed makes that an easy sell.
