Welcome to Platypus Valley Bed & Breakfast where your hostess, Loriana hopes you"ll enjoy the wonders of the friendly local Platypus playing in the dam.
Platypus Valley is a unique place, located in the heart of Cradle Country, which brings you a little bit of Switzerland to Tasmania. The Bed & Breakfast has touches of Swiss influence throughout, inspired by Loriana's time spent in Switzerland which also overflows into her generous hospitality.
