Don't bother going. Despite signage and web site information Bookings are essential. However even if you book and turn up there may be no one there. The gate is open but the house is not. Apparently very few volunteers are available. National Trust need to look into the management of this site. Many of the trees in the garden are not well maintained and unhealthy. Sad to see places like this inaccessible to the public.

Runnymede is run by a lovely group of volunteers. An historic house with charm, original furnishings and plenty of history to learn about not only the time period the house was built and used, but the families living there. Interesting information on the whaling industry too. I loved the original wall paper and my favourite part was the children's height measurements marked in a cupboard, from the late 19th century. Never painted over! I was welcomed in by a bright smile and offered tea at the end. My only regret is that I didn't get to see the garden in full bloom, it looks as though it would be spectacular. I will be visiting again.

A fantastic tour around the house with guide ‘Clare’ on a rainy day. She was friendly and knowledgeable. We really loved the house. A hidden Hobart gem! Thanks

Beautiful, serene gardens. Fascinating historic homestead, with some wonderful information provided. Great scones when we were there for a garden fete - think scones are not always an option. But the gardens are lovely regardless.

Runnymede never grows tiring, although only 1/2 the house was open the volenteers were so very much welcoming and informative, the little makket they had there was wonderful. It was the first time my partner had been there i had been several times and it won't be the last for either of us.

The 2 National Trust of Australia Hobart properties have been highlights of my trip to Tasmania. The guide at Runnymede House had an amazing knowledge of the history of the property and the families that had lived in the property. I had a similar experience at the Hobart Convict Penitentiary. The National Trust of Australia is very lucky to have such enthusiastic, knowledgeable volunteers who give excellent presentations.
